In over my head...
 
Well, I've gone and done it now. I just had an offer I couldn't
refuse. I tried, really I did...


So, I now own a 3000 sq ft. greenhouse, half filled with plants (some in
better shape than others), with all the bells and whistles pertaining to
such. I just have to move it and run utilities. And find a space to
put it, I may only be able to put up half. Quite a change from my 80sq
ft basement room. In case you are wondering how big 3000 sq feet is, it
is much bigger than you think...


Anyway, fair warning. I'll probably have to actually go semi-pro now,
in order to afford heat. If and when I ever get going, I'll be doing
business under the name "Littlefrog Farm" (I do grow more than orchids,
you know). I already had the domain name (no website yet). I'll have
the plants and greenhouse after it gets a little warmer (maybe June).
Not sure how I'm going to do all this, watch after an 8 month old child
(the 'little frog' in question), and hold down a 'real job' at the same
time, but it will either happen or it won't. That is why the deity
invented 30 hour days.

Semi Pro Little Frog,

This will be quite interesting.

PS, I like the new third rule.

Or painful... interesting would be good, though.

Trying to mix it up a bit...
