Georgia... on my mind - a couple of things I've been pondering...
Storms working on the 2nd part of the path and the heart rock I found has made a focal feature! Isn't it lovely. We were talking how neat it is that he can say -I found, carried & placed every rock on the path from the property. It's been a lot of work but it looks amazing. He also built an area around the fire pit' that is safer and again appealing to the eye. The actual fire container' (below) was here from the previous owner, we pondered getting another but Norm replaced the wire sides with stronger cage material and cleaned it up.. I like that it's been here warming hearts for longer than we've been here. Now we just have to figure out when' it's ok to have a fire.
About the photos below:
-Our new Fire pit built into the path, where countless tales will be told!
-Storm met a new friend in the forest - lol, definitely a painting soon of this handsome beast.
-Don't baby pinecones look like a baby pineapple... so sweet. You're welcome. :)
-We have a mini 'Shiitake log' farm happening - I'm so excited for them to sprout! Storm also sells inoculated logs so you can grow your own' - check out Flow Mycology, if interested send him a message.
-Ginger & Arrow are mortal enemies heehee Ginger loves Daisy but Arrow is the opposite, I guess so! Arrow is constantly teasing ginger and getting her babies and waving them in her face - Poor Ginger tries but never wins the tug of way with Arrow... at least she keeps trying!
-There is a painter on YouTube 'Joony art' that I think is terrific - you can see her mixing paint and step by step process will help many beginners - usually with big brushes too. This sunlit forest is hers, I love her style and have learned a few tricks from watching her videos so have a peek!
-this adorable sloth is being finished, on my desk today! Isn't he sweet?
- Canada post is in the news for how it's struggling, losing millions & I get why! Coffee almost shot out my nose when I read: mails is delivered two days in the city, three days in the same province & 4 days across the country! ha! Sometimes I've mailed a letter in the same town and it takes a couple of weeks. I've had mail delivered to the wrong address and had a neighbour return it (thankfully), a package from DeSerres (big box) was lost for one a month. When I finally demanded DeSerres return my money! I guess they looked into it, it finally arrived a few days later the box was all ripped open, all contents were still in it. They are also expensive! Stamp prices are always going up as are package prices. So of course Canadians are using other more affordable, reliable options... SO- yes I get why they are going under. The article suggested they are going by way of Blockbuster.. it will be sad if they do - countless Canadians will be out of jobs.
-One other article I read was very concerning about this brain disease in New Brunswick... it sounds like the government is trying to keep it under wraps & it sounds terrible! Young Canadians over 200 hundred now are suffering symptoms that have them drooling, forgetful as if suffering a form of dementia. When you search for info there are conflicting stories -only 48 cases.. "A top scientist who advises the Canadian Government said he was blocked from studying a freak outbreak of a mysterious and deadly brain illness in young adults and teenagers." What's up with that? Don't we need to find out what's happening to these kids?
This is not the first time information has been suppressed by our government, I found that out long ago researching cannabis that tests were done using cannabis & psilocybin that were shown to help reduce anxiety (especially psilocybin) and help with depression in the 60's!! Safe medicines that didn't kill by overdose. Mushrooms have never killed anyone or cannabis. Can we say the same for alcohol? Record number of people DIED from alcohol during the pandemic. Fact.
Research it if you don't believe me. BUT of course there was no money to be made in natural plants anyone can grow- so pharmaceutical medicines were introduce and look where we are now - millions of lawsuits for damage & death caused by MEDICATION.
Well - that's what has been on my mind the past few days.. now it's time to create & thank the creator I am able to serve!! Amen.
