The Last Seeds!
Jan. 22nd, 2018 08:59 pmThe last seeds have arrived! Probably....
Uhh, most likely?
Well, with plans up in the air, I probably won't be buying any more seeds, unless I buy the true potato seeds but it's not looking likely this year.
I got my Adaptive Seeds order which was only three packets: Kassaby Sorghum, Sussex Flax and Purple Hulless Barley. They're a pretty cool company with some excellent seed varieties which they often grow out from seed exchanges they do with other countries' seed savers groups. It's pretty great.
My order from Johnnys also went up to my parents place, which was a colinear hoe, which you can use standing upright and comfortable and my clover seeds for the borders of the plots.
Yay stuff!

Date: 2018-01-23 11:01 pm (UTC)I honestly love hiking and I had plans to camp with my dog this summer. I never actually wanted to do that in MD because of how humid and disgusting it is in the summers. Like actually horrible and disgusting. But overnight camping and hiking and nature and shit. I love it.
Apparently when I was very young, my family took the train from New York to Montreal. I remember very little from that trip but my parents both say it was awesome.
As far as the cultural thing goes, I'm honestly looking for an area where they don't say bigoted shit to my face so that would be cool. Like, some actual other queer people existing near me would also be cool. Yeah, most of the people at work feel it's just fine to use slurs and say nasty things about the gays around me. Or they did. They don't really anymore because they think I'm dating Jade. The Eastern Shore of MD is super duper racist and stuff too. It's kind of bananas to think about how many people I talk to had family members that owned slaves. And they still live in the huge plantation houses. I've literally walked a field a quarter mile from where Frederick Douglas was born.
So yeah. Moving north is definitely a good thing for me.
I did confirm with the person that I will be taking the job so yay! It'll pay me less but be so much less stress so it's worth it. It's also working with vegetables, small fruit, tree fruit and grapes which are all things I'm interested in. I've got to go through the reference check and get the official job offer but that's pretty much formalities.
Housing is going to be our biggest issue with a cat, a dog and not a ton of money per month. We've got some leads from craigslist and zillow so I'm going to start making calls tomorrow.
This has been so so helpful for me so thank you so much!
