nobody said it was easy

When we decided to start farming most people's reactions were something along the lines of, 
"do you know how early you're going to have to get up?"

Why didn't anyone say, 
"do you know how hard it is to start a a business, 
maneuver the seas of rules, permits, registrations and red tape?"

The truth is, I knew it was going to be hard. 
I prepared myself for the early mornings. 
The rainy days when animals still need food. 
The planning and scrimping and saving and working.

But this business stuff is the worst. 
Somebody do it for me. Please?

Until next time,

She was visibly shaken, breathing quickly, her hair a mess with tufts pulled out (that was the first sign I saw that something was going on.) The next d...
