I've always been a collector, of living things, and stuff. Sounds a lot creepier than it is.
As a child I caught frogs and lizards and believed they were my friends. This eventually evolved to include iguanas, hedgehogs, ferrets, rats, etc. I rarely purchased new friends, most I adopted or were gifted.
Plants too. I've always dreamed of living in a greenhouse. Although, I haven't found my green thumb. That is a work in progress.
As a Mother, I have also acquired "bonus children". Thankfully I bonded with a man who welcomes children under his wings in the same way I do. It is family tradition for both of us.
When my partner & I decided to keep his family house, I complained that although we live "in the country", we don't have enough property to benefit from the country life.
Thankfully this is 2014. The internet is teaching me that there is a lot you can accomplish with less than an acre.
So my journey to a healthy body & soul will now include raising some of my own food.
Through this journey, I will introduce you to my menagerie. This includes my Mr, my children (you will need a tree to keep up), all my animals , and plants.
This adventure came to actuality when I acquired chickens. They are my first step,to a life of eating happy food. I am starting with four beautiful egg laying hens. They are just the beginning.
My adventure has already started, I will be giving you flashbacks of my progress. I have a lot of plans though. You get to follow me through all the learning curves and follies.
Welcome!
