stubbed toes and mud pies

[Dahlia]

this morning there were three large deer out back wandering around and trying to get back out. apparently they can't remember how they got in to begin with?

Mom was watching them and giving me moment by moment updates. i had to ask her to stop telling me because the last time we had deer out there she had just come driving in the driveway and startled them enough that they ran through the fence and did a lot of damage that took us a few days of work to get repaired.

i have no intention of even looking out there today at all. none. will. not. do. it...

i hope they don't come back...

We used to have deer getting into our backyard as it was "fenced" on one side with thick bushes. The deer would sneak back there and lay down right in the center of my garden. There happened to be a poinsettia out there struggling to live and the deer finished that one off!!

if i move slow i'm not running over creatures or stepping on things. i try to take it easy as much as possible as i find when i hurry i'm often not really accomplishing what i want to do and i'm also often going to hurt myself or other creatures or damage things.

that said, when i really need to pee i may move a bit faster...

good morning... .. .

thinking of various possible futures and the way that things seem to be heading. we're not all that far from being able to grow about any chemical compounds we like and in about any forms too.

it will be likely possible to grow little cups of coffee or chocolate without all the intervening processing that is currently going on, and also to grow them in their own edible containers (with enough fiber that they are somewhat better for us).
