Making Plans

Last night, I fell asleep going through one of my favorite garden catalogs, Pinetree. 

Going through the pages brought a sense of creativity as I decompressed from work. Seeing all the rich colors of fruits, vegetables and flowers took me to my garden lab where I can start making plans for what to try this season, I save a lot of my seeds, but I also like trying new seeds, too. 

Pinetree doesn't have the big bold pictures like Baker's Creek(I love them, too!), but it has prices that fit my budget, if you've never ordered from Pinetree, I highly recommend giving them a try. You can find them over at www.superseeds.com. This isn't a paid post and also something went wrong when I was trying to add the link, but you have the website and can manually type it in. 

I hope you enjoy the catalog as much as I do! Let me know what you think of Pinetree Seeds. 

Keep Growing and Planning:)

Trying to make it through

Not an actual photo in my area, just wanted to post a winter wonderland photo.

So, no quote for the week once again, I'm working four tens once again this week, and its been mentally draining for me. So, on Friday I did some last minute grocery shopping, in the brutal cold; I hope everyone was able to stay safe and warm over the weekend. Went over to my sister's house to finish up cooking three pans of lasagna, on Saturday afternoon, my oven went out me, so I was able to use hers. Even though, I had a three day weekend, I really didn't feel like I had one. Sunday was my only full day to relax and do nothing, after a week of completing four tens and an array of technical problems during my training class, and a Monday morning training session that only gave our class one five minute break between 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. or 12:30 p.m., it became so hard to focus on the training at hand.

I'm already getting the vibe that this work at home position might be challenging for me, but the pay is pretty decent, even though, I'm starting to question that and the real flexibility of the job.

At this point, I'm paying down credit card and medical bills while putting away some savings and investing, too. My focus is paying off those debts and working hard to become an Independent Insurance agent. This is the first time I let you guys know what I'm doing. You know what, I'm also going to share the company, I work for, but I won't share the company that I'll be contracting for.

I, work for Ttec, and right now it seems like it can be hit or miss. Some people love it and others despise it. I'm somewhere in the middle, but leaning to the latter a bit.

I'm gonna have to cut this writing short, because it's a little after 7 a.m. and I need to get ready for work, bit I just wanted to highlight the beauty of winter with the picture above, from Pexel....oh no, I forgot to get the photographer's name....I'll try to go back and update later, but yeah, have a great week everyone and pray for my sanity for this week. But always believe, I'm going to keep swimming!

Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all.
