Oh Wow! I believe it's been over a year since I was here! 
So much has happened. Some great, some good, some bad and some ugly... but through it all I became stronger and even more of a MJ Farmgirl than ever before. (Haven't got a clue as to why I didn't log on for so long)
I had been unemployed for the longest time. I'm sure I complained about it on a regular basis here, lol. But last year, my best friend put me in touch with a woman that just needed some help... working on a FARM! Pun intended, but I was in hog heaven! It was long hours, hard work, hot, sweaty and dirty. I loved every minute of it. The freshest vegetables and fruits that I could get my greedy little hands on... only fertilized with compost and manure, no pesticides! Oh my! (no haters, please ) The family that owned the farm are the most wonderful people. I was so blessed and peaceful! Sadly, the season ended and I had to find another job for the winter... retail, ugggg! But I just got a call this week from my boss at the farm, "checking up" on me. Actually, I think it was more like she was hoping that I Didn't find a better job, hahaha! She asked me back and I didn't even let her finish the sentence... My oldest daughter is going with me and we are going to be looking for a new home near there.
Anyway, enough blathering on... I'm heading on to other topics to scope things out
So happy to be back!
