Yesterday was my birthday, I’m now 36 years old and didn’t feel doing any writing. As of late I’ve been less motivated to write and generally felt low energy, my guess is allergies since I shouldn’t be as tired as I feel. We’re now in the last month before the new baby comes and as I’ve been preparing our home, I’m getting less invested in the internet. The blog has been doing well lately which I’m grateful for, but in the first days of a new born I know that will be the only thing I have energy for. Right now it’s like I’m in a trilogy of books, the second one has already concluded it’s action and the third has yet to start. Every year I write a letter to myself to be read the next birthday, last years letter was mostly that life is good and stable. Right now I feel the same way and am prepared for the next big adventure. The first day of school was yesterday in my county, by the time my second daughter is the age of the first, the elder will be starting school. The adventures continue to rotate through the cast of characters. For myself the ever changing adventure is the land, the landscaper had killed some trees that will have to be replaced some day. Around November is when my grapes will be shipped, and yesterday I finally added more frames to my bee box. It had been awhile since I checked in on the bees and they seem to be doing well, I’m glad the land is a good environment for them. We’ll see how things go with the new baby, but I’d like to get started on chickens in the next couple years, even if it is just one as a pet. There’s a lot to learn. Every Winter I’ll work on clearing more of the forest, it shouldn’t be too long until the parameter is cleared, but it’s work that depends on free time.
