BIG dreams. Not big as in I want to be a celebrity or anything. Big as in I want some decent sized land! Someday it\u2019ll happen. Then I can be like my friend Crystal in Idaho. She and I are similar in that we both moved from places we loved and gave up a lot, then after a year we were suddenly able to move back! Her situation happened a little bit after mine, but at least someone out there understands my experience!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/granolaliz.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/02\/tomatoes.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/granolaliz.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/02\/tomatoes.jpg?w=640&#038;h=168&#038;fit=300%2C168\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-257\" title=\"tomatoes\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Anyhow, Crystal has land \u2013 I hope she gets some more sheep and horses soon ? My dream is that someday I can have land. Be fairly self-sufficient. I currently have chickens. The problem is I can\u2019t bring myself to eat them. It\u2019s only six so I\u2019m a little attached. Maybe if I had like 50 chickens, then I could eat a few of them and not get attached. If we had some more land, I\u2019d plot out a quarter acre fruit and vegetable garden. I\u2019d get some merino sheep or better yet, some alpaca!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, for only half an acre, I gotta say we\u2019re doing mighty fine!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019ve got dreams people.
