The very first time
Tonight was the first time since I moved here in December that I was able to walk my property and enjoy every inch of the 7 + acres and the beautful views.
I sat on my small deck and watch my llamas and horse graze, while listening to the chatter of my 21 dogs talking to each other. I finally felt like I am home.
Pulled some weeds in my vegetable garden and admired my small crop that is growing each and every day.
The person who built my livestock fencing stopped by to check on a couple of things he needs to complete. He asked me how I was and out of my mouth came these words. "I am content and happy." I do not remember the last time or if ever I have uttered these words together.
My schedule is crazy, as I work seven days per week pet sitting, dog walking and taking care of small ranches. The manual labor feels good and the communication with all the animals could not be better.
Mainly I am experiencing a life of mostly solitude with the animals at this time. Not much communication with people except for my clients at times, and the two most important people in my life, my mother and daughter.
I have to chuckle as my truck radio is tuned into talk radio for the first time in this lifetime, I listen to talk radio. Something I just never thought about in the past.
Life is not a learning process, it is an experience that you take to the fullest extent possible. Each page of your life manual is written daily, no thoughts of tomorrow, only today. When I get up in the morning, or should say when the dogs wake me, as they are my alarm clock, then I look at the schedule for the day and begin.
