I am having a love affair

with my life right now.

My very second day on my new job, I had the privilege of meeting an adorable little gopher snake. Still a baby, only about 7 inches long. I met the little creature on my way to learn to tend the goats and sheep.

Then we went off to the magical garden on site and sampled a couple of raspberries while turning on the water to feed the oxygen-giving beings.

Today, we were having work meetings, one of which took place outside in the fire-circle. Yeah, outside in the breeze and sunshine. In the middle of the meeting, a doe and her youngling ventured over to inspect and walked on past, completely unfazed.

After a full day of hard work at the camp, I got to come home, lay on my bed, and fall in love all over again with my two adorable mutant kitties. One meowed at me and followed me around until I settled in and the other, once I lay down on the bed, promptly crawled into a little outcropping of blanket and popped her head back out again, enjoying the time-tested past-time of blanket-fort-dwelling.

My love, my heart, never ceases to look at me with eyes shimmering and proud. His smile still makes my blood rush and his laughter will never cease to make me joyous.

I am thoroughly entrenched and in love with my life.
