"Some keep the Sabbath going to Church –
I keep it, staying at Home –
With a Bobolink for a Chorister –
And an Orchard, for a Dome..."
Emily Dickinson
We're so blessed to live in a place filled with nature and mild weather all year. Fifteen years of my professing life,  I worked from office buildings,  longing to be in the sunshine just beyond my reach.  it was a good life with weekends and holidays off,  great health insurance and a reliable schedule with a regular paycheck.  so why on earth would I guide that up
Nature restores my spirit, it's a constant reminder that I'm not in control. I grew up with a deep love of the natural world; riding on favorite  horse,  in the swampy woods of my childhood and hearing the wind waft  through the trees was better than any possession I could "own." I felt at ease and peaceful,  safe in the embrace of the earth and my steed. 
I want the pets in my care to feel the sense of calm and comfort that they bring to me.  I love my peaceful,  quiet days filled with my waggers and purrers. A strong introvert by nature the simplest part of my days is the hard and steady physical work that fills it. 
My hardest task?  Most don't believe it because I do love people and interact enthusiastically, but it is meeting my two legged clients for the first time.

It's natural for me to be immediately drawn to the animals in a room and takes focus to do the same with my people.  Make no mistake,  I love my clients and feel so blessed to serve each one. But it's the time with your fur babies,  that silent connection,  that I find magical.  Like a secret potion. ..or a tonic.
