A little over a month from now my partner in crime and I are getting two new bee colonies. I am trying very hard to be positive and not dwell on the fact that we had lost our original colonies. Losing all of them really made me just want to quit and cut our losses. The only problem with that is I really like being a beekeeper. I love watching them fly back with their pants full of pollen, I love watching them fly from flower to flower around my friends yard, and I love the honey. It was a lot of fun and very satisfying making lip balms, lotions, and candles from the wax, and giving them as gifts. I have had a clock over my head telling me to get the garden done by Easter, so it’s nice for this other clock counting down when something very exciting is going to happen.
