20. It isn't a big deal it is just life.

So far it has been a bust here but that is good. The ground is covered with sleet and that is all.

Before I got the farm I was a 24/7 mother and before and during part of that I was a nurse and always had to work at least half of the holidays (night shift so I could still celebrate with family) and before that I worked at the zoo that also never goes a day without full staff for any reason. It is just the way it is. I am very happy to be able to do this in my later life . All of these things were rewarding enough to do it.
