THELOADEDDRAGON'S 2010 Outdoor

I hope you are loving that garden after all the sweat you put in. looking great my friend. Dirrtyd

I hear what your saying bud.. I live in a beautiful place, just in a very different way than your beautiful place.... I love where I live, and doubt I will move for a long time..... Your insight is very meaningful, and always makes me think about the important things in life....... I would call your plants beautiful, and an addition to a naturally beautiful landscape....... Thanks for sharing it with all of us.....

Thanks Slabhead! That is a great picture... I didn't take it though..... it was Lavenderstars idea to get the poppies in there too, and I love how it came out!

How is your garden doing? Mind posting a link.....?

Yeah, that is my favorite one. Gotta love the poppies. It looks like the little one has a good photographic eye <genetics I guess,lol>
My grow is coming along. The CC x HJ is off the hook already in growth and about to pull my JS x HJ, set out too early and budded right away. I've thought about starting some more of them though... just getting kind of late though...

I'll be watching/lurking....hahaha

Man starting a business is hard these days.... especially starting with nothing to stand on and trying to work it up..... like finding good workers that are reliable..... I'm up for the task..... and am going to see it through..... I'm going to work until my dreams come true..... or they don't.... but when it comes to quitting.... I won't! that magic moment is not too far away... I can almost taste it, almost feel it.....

And the garden sure is coming along, thanks for the support guys.... I wrote a big long response last night, but the computer froze before I could post it! Will check in later.... Tons of work to do .

I CHOPPED TODAY TLD!
I pulled 50.2g wet./ 1 plant.

Very cool tld, didn't know you were starting a business. I wish you success my friend. Oh and FYI my computer has been doing the same thing, freezes up after 20 or so minutes. Usually right after I typed long post or loaded pics. I actually am on my phone right now.

I have been bursting with desirable and (Im sure) successful business ideas for years, and followed trades that paid the bills instead, eventually to the point I have been self employed for a couple years working in those trades. All the while I have developed each of those more desirable business ideas in my mind and learned about those business trades as hobbies and in my spare time. I have visions of them so clear in my mind, and a fairly firm understanding of the markets, and how to successfully get them started and operating smoothly. What I am lacking is leadership, start up capital, and the fact that none of these businesses really revolve around me, but rather the businesses themselves, and the other people having the same ambitions to see them to fruition that are willing to make a vested interest in creating and keeping them. Seems the one I have been doing on my own is really the one I never wanted to do or saw myself doing, though I have been slowly and unintentionally been building it up over the years. You know, people always want sprinkler systems put in, or need a new roof or some kind of household repair, or want a garden put in, or trees cleared, or fences built, treehouses, decks, cabins or whatever...... those kinds of work have always been very available to me..... but its really not what I want to say is all I accomplished in my life...... As RDRFN420 said- I Should write, and on that same wavelength I feel I should get these other businesses together. That is what I want to say I did with my life. I feel doing those things would leave a watermark of hope in the world, and maybe provide the spark for true positive changes, or at least times and places of happy memories and good times? That may be a dreamers dream, but it is mine to dream, and maybe our children's to hold..... maybe my childrens to hold, a father to be proud of. Memories of people doing good things in the world, loving each other and being free to give it out. Times of people coming together, and enjoying each others company, and sharing precious ideas and feelings about life. People building great things out of ideas, hard work, wisdom, and love.... and the world benefiting from it. A dreamers dream.....
The more I move into the business I have already been establishing, my unintentional adventure..... the more I feel I am moving away from bigger parts of myself.... and denying my inner potential. I realize that life is short. I feel my life may be shorter than many. I want to make sure that every minute counts. Its my life. I am young..... so I ask myself..... is there enough time for it all, and this unintentional adventure, or is this unintentional adventure going to pave the way to the life I never wanted? I'm so confused. I suppose the question may be more at times..... which direction am I going to play into my fears? Because the other businesses entail activities that may be more than I ever asked for...... if it all works out,

Nobody an no one can stop you from educating yourself, you just won't get the special piece of paper unless you pay the system. You don't need to have that paper to prove you know you stuff you can do that with the words you speak.

Amen - That is so not what paper is for...

Hey TLD, lovely grow. You could put some paper to good use as well. Enjoy!

In all honesty, I could talk my way up the corporate ladder, or in any business for that matter If I wanted...but really im looking for freedom, not money. Im looking to just be happy out in cali, with my little outdoor garden

I want the paper just in case....because some companies just care about that, not what you actually know.

Oh well, thats life. Thanks for the kind words chop, for real

your welcome, I know what you mean though and sometimes the state gets involved too, I live in michigan and I am a motorcycle technician I graduated from college with a bunch of factory certifications from Arctic Cat, Yamaha, Suzuki ect. but unless I have the paper from the state that says I passed there test its Illegal for a shop to hire me, oh and it cost 6$ to take the test and another 25$ for them to mail you the certificate and you have to renew it every year. The questions on the test were bogus and it probably was written in 1960. Basically just another way for them to force you to pay them for no reason whatsoever. Anyway that's my rant

TLD back to you... HOw are all you ladies doing?

The ladies are doing great, for now, growing faster than I can keep up with.

but right now its like this:

Got 2 bucks to my name......

Rent doesn't get paid.... we get evicted.... plants get pulled up.

PGE doesn't get paid, power gets shut off, plants have no water.

I hear that brotha i really do.... I cant find work for the life of me bruh! I wish there was a new aged way to grow food instantly cause I hate not eating manlol. But I make sure my girls are fed; my camera broke on me and my GP bailed out for a summer fling, so I dont know when I will be getting my journal going! I lost all but four girls so far cause of scavengers, not even sure what kind Im thinking cows maybe but there were no tracks left behind that looked familiar to me...
