Marigolds
Sarah was a very enthusiastic homeowner. She was all but determined to have a self-sustaining home. She researched everything. Started with trees around the property she focused on fruit trees first and then she moved to nut trees. She was going to save some trips to get groceries. She went and all the vegetable seeds she could to start a garden. She felt like she was investing in her future. It would take a few years for her to start producing fruit so she focused on her vegetable garden. She spent hours weeding and pruning then one day she came out to find a lot of bugs everywhere.

A day worth remembering
It was a very glorious day. I was turning 18 today. All my life I had heard about how hard it was for my mother to take care of me since my father died. Some days I thought she resented him because he did die and left her to take care of me alone. She would work all day long while I was at school and she was so tired all the time. She spent every evening trying to do everything she could and needed to do around the house. I knew I would not get a car or even a new outfit but I did have friends and I was going to celebrate.

I am a diabetic and for me, I have to watch what I eat. But this day I was willing to chance it. I mean what would you do if this wonderfully handsome man had lit candles and spend all day in the kitchen trying to make the day a wonderful moment to remember.

Steven and Gloria
It was a dreary cloudy day when I came into the world. I was so happy to find that I had this old rickety barn to keep me dry. There were other little ones clucking around me. A strange human came by and threw down some sort of food because the young ones clucking near me when crazy up to the pile and started dipping their faces into it. It was nothing like I had expected from inside my egg.

Painting on people
The creative project that brings me the most relaxation and joy is a bit out there. Dare I say it is something that one would not expect. It is not something that I can just go find a group that enjoys the same things to talk about. It requires a lot of skill and is a work in progress for me.

Mushroom clouds and Heart-shaped lockets?
Dust and dirt. As far as the eye can see, just dust and dirt. No one was prepared for the world war that the U.S. had caused. We were targeted because of bigotry and the petty squabbles we were having with ourselves. We may have been ready to allow everyone to be as they wanted but all the religious countries saw was weakness. Our allies or who we thought were allies abandoned us.

Teaching is my Regret
My regrets are my long journey of trying to become a full-time teacher. Which, I am still not a full-time teacher, by the way. I started substitute teaching in Lewis county, West Virginia. I was not from the area I had to move back after college in with my grandparents. I was told by a relative substitute teachers are needed. All they required was a Bachelors's degree. Cool. I was all about this job. I went to certify with RESA. After a few years of substitute teaching, I decided I liked teaching and taking the time to make sure that students understand.

Hemi
We have a boxer named Hemi by the previous owner. He was going out of town with the oil field to a different state and could not take the dog with him. So, instead of allowing him to take the dog to the shelter my significant took the dog from him. I was surprised when my significant brought him home and I knew the dog did not deserve to go to a shelter but what did we need another animal for.

They say spend money to make money!
My wonderful facebook page talked me into buy Maskcara beauty products and I even signed up to be an artist for them. In November of 2020 they became Seint Beauty and rebranded. The products are unbelievable and it still gets better. In Jan/Feb of this year the came out with a new way to make-up. It is called Demi Color. This is special because you literally just put the smallest amounts of makeup on your face just to cover what they refer to as distractions on your face. You can see more about all of this here: https://glamazing.seintofficial.com/en/office/customer-parties/160050

White Roses in Spring
It was a wonderfully nice spring day. I went for a walk around and park looked at all the beautiful cherry trees blooming. Fed the ducks in the pond and also watched the koi fish swimming. A slow gentle breeze blowing all day. The sun warmed my skin just right. The air was fresh smelling like after it rains. Every once in a while with the breeze blowing you could catch the smell of grass being trimmed. The bird nests full of baby birds peeping. Despite the wonderfully cheerful day, I could not shake the feeling of being watched.

Horiscope: Pack Animal
Well, before I tell you about my sign I want to tell you a little bit about me. This way you can make an informed decision on whether or not the sign matches me. I am 35 years old. Life has been hard for me but I try to understand everyone's side of everything. I know that in a conflict both sides have a view point and to some extent both sides are right. Let's be honest from their prospective they are right. If they did not feel that they were right they would not fight. Though, I do acknowledge that some people tend to just like to fight to fight. Although in most cases my own family were not great to me; when I started a family of my own I decided I would do whatever it takes to protect and take care of them. I work many jobs to try to take care of my family. I love to be around trees and greenery. I enjoy being creative through writing, painting, drawing and occasionally crafts. I often ask for the advise of others to try to get a bigger picture of the situation; although I do not always follow the advise.
