{30x30 pt13} Dairy Farmer

I mentioned in a previous post that I am a compulsive career changer and things I read/watch influence these choices.  I recently read an article in Chatelaine about a 26 year old Canadian female dairy farmer and I got so excited by her story that I read it aloud to the boy and declared that this was my calling and I would work as a farm hand in the summertime.  He then reminded me of the early mornings, the shovelling of excrements and the uniform of overalls and rubber boots and my enthusiasm quelled.

Tonight we were watching an episode of Nova (great science show!) about smart animals and they profiled a marine biologist who works with dolphins.  Biology was my favourite subject in high school and I love animals so why not combine the two? If I didn't have to go back to university and complete a degree in biology, then maybe it would be feasible.  For now I will continue the search for the perfect career that would feel more like a hobby than a job and Monday morning wake-ups wouldn't be so rough...

(I picked up my new glasses this weekend- they're tortoise shell Gucci and they're geek chic!)

I'm already a zoo-keeper with my two cats, their animal toys and my figurines!

Unfortunately Mama Sita's favourite sleeping spot is in my closet which means my clothes are always covered in cat fur (like this black dress I plan on wearing tomorrow- thank goodness for lint brushes!)
