I have been thinking a lot about Naomi and if I did the right thing in setting her lose on Rennie, it didn't help that I ran into her in the dinner this week but she blanked me as she left so that was good. Rennie may suspect that I am behind her renewed interest in him but he will not be able to prove it. Hell she has been after him for years so maybe I am just overreacting - but I have kept my head down and thrown myself into my work all the same.
With everything that has been going on I didn't even mention that I have harvested my first crop and a new crop is already in the ground. It pisses me off that Rennie has stolen these moments from me - I should have been celebrating but instead I have been dealing with all this.
Onwards and upwards though.
The Yard
The yard is also done - well done for now - it felt great moving my equipment in, I really feel like a farmer now. Yes it is kinda basic but it is all I need right now and future expansion will happen in time.
Talking of expansion.
I have a dilemma.
I have around $69k in the bank - I can leave it there for a couple of harvests and buy another large(ish) filed.
Or.
So there is a small field just down the way from the yard that is up for sale at $25k - I have had a look at it and it would certainly get some extra cash through the doors in the short term but maybe I should be looking at the bigger picture?
I am torn - I guess I will have to sleep on it and see what my gut feeling is.
But aside from all that and aside from my troubles with Rennie I do not want to lose sight of what I have achieved - I have a farm. A REAL. WORKING. FARM.
Pops Farm.
Here's to you old man - I hope you are proud of what I have accomplished so far.
