damn it feels good to be a farmer

Today was a good day. After lunch I got to help dad work on a disk of ours. I do like working with my hands given the chance. I really can't wait to get done with my masters so I can start to tackle some things that I think should be done around our farm. That and I would be able to play videogames in good conscience of not having something better to do. I don't like staying in all the time and trying to think about what I should be typing. Blogging is fun, but it really is a distraction. I am also looking forward to getting back into the greenhouse also. Spending time in that warm place and working over plants to watch them grow is really cool. That really won't start until late february but I am looking forward to it.

I sometimes wonder what I might have done different in college. Currently my main thought is that I should have majored in science education and minored in ag education. However, I also wonder where I would be if I worked me towards a plant science degree that let me work in a greenhouse. I really liked my horticulture production classes better than my ag ed classes. I had the hardest time memorizing plants and their latin names, but I would work that out if I spent more time in a greenhouse. I think my grandma is a bit disappointed with me in that area. She has worked hard to establish our business and I really don't have enough knowledge to take it over if or when the time comes. One of these days I am going to quit sub teaching and commit myself to our greenhouses. We can make a fair amount of money doing the work, and I am the most interested in the area. If I had any business sense or liked thinking about money, I might be more proactive in management of the greeenhouse. With my spanish speaking ability, I think I could get a job in a nursery somewhere.

I also have a weird thought about my dog. Walter has a black nose and a black lip right under his nose. It kind of looks like a hitler mustache. I kind of hope he grows out of it but still grin at him most of the time now.
