  • Sunday night, enjoying peace in the moment

    Hard times are not behind me. I’m determined not to let these quiet days go to waste.

    It was a beautiful day! The dogs with me today were so full of joy as usual. They are angels on earth 🐶🐶🐶

    I’ve identified more of the plants that have made my yard their home. There’s a vine that the bumblebees LOVE 🐝 it’s a nightshade plant so I cut it back for now. I don’t want it to irritate the cats. One little black kitty is already having some skin problems. I will get a spray for him and see if he will let me near enough to treat him. At least the vine won’t be hanging over his favorite spots now.

    I’ve found lemon balm and Virginia Pepper weed🌱

    I’m going to go to sleep and not think about some mail I received last week. Too much to deal with in normal everyday life. I took steps for these things already, so I’ll handle the difficulties, but normal life things weigh so much heavier when your world is not safe.

    That’s for tomorrow.

    Tonight-

    Pinterest

    Stan Store

    And TV

    And, of course, I am blessed with many beautiful animals in my life so I will enjoy their affection 😻🥰🐶❤️

    Pictures of my new found plants are here, too!

  • New growth

    Mock strawberries

    Actual new growth. After most of the native wildflowers were destroyed by yard was barren for a while. Late this spring I’ve had some beautiful new plants showing up!

    A ton of clover has sprouted. I had been spreading clover seeds every year. It disappeared during the scary years. It’s returned now, but lots more of it!

    There have been some plants appear out of nowhere. Some Mock strawberries and I found what I think is a common mullein. I’ll keep an eye on it and try to help it grow.

    There’s quite a few new plants. I’m going to identify them and try to grow them all where they are and see what happens.

  • My Trail Back

    My Trail Back

    The past few years have been all about survival. Some men working on a home next door to mine decided it would be fun to get away with abusing a woman. They’ve killed and injured many animals, destroyed my property, killed off the majority of the plants in my yard, and harassed me and my dogs at any chance possible.

    Ive fought back by making their abuse known to as many people that could possibly help as possible. Now there are days, and at some points weeks, where these men are not around to cause damage.

    It is not completely behind me yet, but I have hope now. And I am going to live my life as though it is over.

    This is a place where I hope to log my journey into a new way of living. My previous life is forever gone. Now there is room to create something new.
