FFF I'm sorry this is so long!
Ahh, it's too bad that no one reads any of this! But that's okay; at the very least, it's nice to just type sometimes...
So, lately I've been playing a whole lot of Harvest Moon and Animal crossing, which has been making me very eager (not surprisingly, since I'm so terribly impressionable!) to garden!
I've been spending my whole week weeding--and nothing else--everywhere and anywhere in the yard that could possibly become a garden and the surrounding areas.
The rock garden in back is in very nice shape now and the small plot behind the garage is in shape for planting and the plot on the left side of the house is (thanks to wingalinged ) free of those pesty spiky plants, although the soil is UTTERLY BARREN like an elderly woman's uterus.
I intend to finish weeding the front garden and fixing it up as well as doing up the last remaining plot on the right side of the house. I want to replace the soil in the barren plot...
Once I do that, I'm gonna take the liberty of buying wood and either wire or plastic lattice screening and making a border around my three plots, and then getting plants rather than seeds for summer plants (since it's later in the season) and getting seeds for late summer and fall vegetables! With any luck, and lots of fertilizer, I'll have plenty of ingredients for the season!
Among the seeds I intend to purchase is:
-Turnip- -Spinach- -Radish- -Lettuce- -Garlic- -Beans- -Beets- -Carrots- -Peas- -Celery-
Among the delectables I intend to transplant is:
-Broccoli- -Onion- -Peppers- -Potatoes- -Herbs(Basil!)- -Tomatoes?-
And then, I've been thinking about the ~future~
Yeah, man, what a thing to think of! Anyway, I've always entertained the idea of moving either to Canada or out East. The East is so very charming, and I know just where I'll go! My father's home town: Rochester, New York! It's a dream, frankly.
And then Canada...Calgary (or, since I don't so much fancy big cities, outlying towns) sounds just delightful! I'm looking into it just a little bit, getting ready. It will be years before I go, but it's never too early to dream!
Besides that, looking so very far into the future, someday I want to move to Denmark! <3
And how excited I am to have neighbors! I'm finally connecting with the ones I have right now, since I'm normalizing as a human being and am no longer unfortunately socially awkward. I can now be a functioning appendage of society~!
I would like to become perhaps a high-school counselor, and moonlight otherwise. Maybe I'd like to moonlight somewhere that I can be close to architecture. Also, if I continue at this pace on this path to social goodness, maybe I'd like to go into real estate! But I have to be so good with people for that sort of thing.
And I've been designing something...Oh dear, but I can't talk about it since it's actually somewhat embarrassing. I'll need some time to see if this lasts before I mention it again. ._.
Then, lastly, I've been sadly inactive in my artistic hobbies. It's been about a month since I'd done anything until just today when I cranked out a colored picture! I'm so glad I had a momentarily inspired stretch of time so that I could finish something. This means that I need to keep going!
You see, it's my Wacom tablet's fault! It doesn't work most of the time, and the times when it functions and the times when I am artistically inclined so rarely coincide.
Oh dear! I've been typing for so long and now I realize that in less than twelve hours I will be in a woman's office being interviewed, stressed beyond belief! Oh, dear God! This is the only thing in life I am not excited about right now! ;A;
After that, there is pie! Followed the next day by a road test. Perhaps I'll get my license! :D
This weekend I will go shopping for all I need for my gardens, and the next week, while my dad is off in California, I'll get to work and make it all pretty! Then we'll look for houses in the city, since my dad ought to be moving there sometime soon. Downgrading, you know, since this house is too big (but then all my gardening will be for naught! I'll just have to find a place with plots, then!) and a pain to heat and cool, plus it's an awful commute for him!
I love looking for houses!
