Quail
They are here! I finally picked up quail chicks. I wrote a few times last year about how I wanted to give raising a few quail a try but that my mister was dead set against it.

I woke up the other morning with this feeling of freedom and gratitude that was overwhelming. I imagined that I’d been a caterpillar in a cocoon for 51 years and was just now escaping and fluttering my beautiful butterfly wings. Coming into my own. It was glorious. Simply glorious!

Back in 2014 and 2015 when I was dealing with treatment for breast cancer and the after effects I read “Be Here Now” by Ram Dass and it struck a chord with me. The last thing I wanted was to be where I was then. Tired, in pain and full of fear. I only wanted to fantasize about how my life was going to look when I kicked that cancer to the curb. I wanted to think about all of the things I was going to do.
