4 weeks and 4 days

its been about 4 weeks and 4 days since I planted my little garden. my little green house box wasn’t all that successful except for one little cucumber plant.

001

that’s my little cucumber! about ready to be transplanted!

002

my herb garden has become lopsided! haha just the way the seeds fell

004

theres my pretty raised garden that my father in law built me. his tomatoes are big enough to have those blue things around them. even starting to have some green tomato buds.

mine arent quite there yet. not tall enough for support and no tomatoes!

a great day

 

 

today cole took me out on a date. been a while since we were able to do that and it was awesome. oh ive missed it. he took me to 17th street bbq bar and grill. and maaaan they have great food!

then we went to wally world and there…I got my ears pierced. I hadnt had them done since…the summer before 6th grade. ive been missing it honestly since then and finally I worked up the courage to get it done again. I picked out a pair of earrings that wouldn’t look blah if I wore them again. and now ill be able to wear the earrings I make!!! so exciting!

it was really a great day. relaxing. goofing off with cole and enjoying the early summer heat (not!!) haha

1 week old

1 week ago I planted my cute little starter kits of my herbs, veggies and flowers

so far the tomato plants are waiting to be transplanted. my father in law is in the process of building a raised garden. that ill probably help with tomorrow and start planting!

002

my beautiful little herb planter has finally sprouted!!

001

yes teeny tiny little green leaves have popped thru and that’s about it…

003

still waiting for these little guys to come thru…but not giving up!! come on little buddies you can do it!!

everyday ive been keeping an eye out on these things. watering them. making sure they get enough sun light. and just hoping that they come up and live!

when I check on them thursday I saw that I had little green babies popping thru the soil and I was so excited I had to get my camera.

thinking I should put on a cheerleader outfit with pom poms and cheer for these little guys to pop thru. come on!! but then again its only week 1. not giving up on these babies

day 1– planted starters

woke up this morning and went right outside excited to start my very first very own garden!

started with my herb starter. which contains:
- sweet basil, oregano, parsley, sage, thyme, and cilantro
cute little herb planter. hope those teeny tiny little seeds battle it out and win so I can have what I want!

I also fixed the already started tomato plants. poor things were falling over.
so in there we have giant delicious and beefsteak tomatoes.
006 (2)

then I started with my little beginners green house.

in there we have green onions, white sweet onions, chives/ garlic, cumin ( which smells so awesome!) ,roma tomatoes ( can you tell we like tomatoes?), lemon balm, homemade pickle cucumbers, spearmint, sweet corn ( attempting!!) , carrots, wildflowers, and sun flowers.
005 (3)

007 (3)

hoping that they all work and I can have something that comes out of this. first garden and I don’t even know if I have a green thumb.
my father –in- law –to be got me some wood and is going to build me a raised garden. hoping that it helps.

what's on my mind tonight?

while looking online for ways to work from home I came across this link that said
“you can make money from YouTube!”

it was a legit link to YouTube's business application. allowing you to sign up your business to earn money. NO WAY!?

I thought about sign up but I think it only lets you use one business per account. not entirely sure though. so I'm kind of torn between beauti control and doing tutorials on making jewelry and hair accessories. Or maybe recipes. WHO KNOWS!!! sooo many possibilities. I have sooo many ideas.

so that was the good part of the night in searching…

the bad part but one that wont put me down…

this lady Penelope is a freaking buzz kill on peoples dreams.

I don’t personally know her but maan she's flipping cruel.

I know its good for a little harsh truth once in a while but geez she's like stomping on people.

there are a few types of people in this world.
people who say they want to help you achieve your goals and dreams and actually do

people who say they want to help but don’t…

and then people like Penelope who freaking shoot everything down the toilet before you even try!

I understand that there are scams and scammers around everywhere. and that if one has taken a risk its his or her choice and they can learn from it.

well I have news for this chick, shooting people down before they try is just plain rude. how would you feel if someone told you you cant do a darn thing in life cause you just suck!

I love telling people to shoot for their dreams and if you try and fall get back up and try and try again. that’s all you gotta do.

I understand that sure not everyone can make money from blogging or from videos or whatever but ya know it builds character and friendships and a bunch of skills.

but there are those lucky few who can! so please chick don’t shoot them down before they try….
