I now have 1 child (an alcohol syndrome child) who I am supposed to be doing healing work on. I met her for an initial consultation but then ended up sick in bed for the last few days. Hopefully next week I can begin doing work on her.
Shortly before my bout with bronchitis, I had started preparing my spring beds for planting. I had been digging trenches and then burying the peelings. I am hoping to get a bokashi bin to speed up my composting. But one of my latest ideas is to try help the local poor people grow their own veggie patches. And bokashi bins will work out too expensive for them even if the bins are donated. So I'm looking into worm bins as another option.
That would be easier just from a point of view that one person gets worms and they breed, then they can give the next person some worms.
I really am finding that there are so many things I want to do to help the community as well as things to do at my house. But with a full time job, there is just not enough time to do everything I want to.
And now with me sitting in bed, I'm growing bored stiff and restless. I've read about 3 books in 3 days and halfway through the 4th one. But I'm itching to be healthy, out of bed and sorting my household and garden out.

It's all finally falling into place
It's now August. I know it's a few months since I posted. But until now, there was not much to post about.
Today I had a meeting with the social worker and 2 of the safe house moms. They are very interested in my idea of doing touch therapy on the children. We have another meeting tomorrow with all the ladies in the area who run safe houses.
I've also mentioned my ideas for building a play park for the kids on my land. They like that too as the park that was in the location, was destroyed by teenagers and adults. Hopefully my dogs can prevent that from happening to a little play park on my property. I'll still have to fence off the area where I put that so that the dogs can be kept away from the kids.
Hopefully tomorrow we'll be able to actually get some details together. These ladies all foster as well as run safe houses. So they know way better than I do, what facilities are most needed for the kids.
And I'm also hoping to get dates and times for the start of my healing journey.
