All the things I do for fun and hobbies I would do a lot more. Which would likely be the following:

  • Exercise (running in the warm months and skiing in the cold)
  • TTRPGs (I might move from 1 day of the week into two, and assuming everyone else has the same deal play in-person instead of digitally)
  • Reading (books and more books)

But mostly I would work on living the permaculture / herbalism fantasy.

  • Do a lot more herbal formulation and
  • Maybe open the small apothecary to sell things at Art fairs and other makers markets.
  • Turn my urban yard into a full food forest to help grow some of my own food, and herbs. (I want to have an urban oasis of edible trees, bushes and other useful plants)
  • Volunteer more a local prairie restoration group that I have worked with in the past
  • Finally spend some time gorilla gardening on open lots and sides of alleyways around my neighborhood to spread the plant love.

Well I have a long term plan to become a Slash worker. I want to be a day job / Herbalist. So have some ideas about how to the last part in a much slower timeline. Need to keep the day job but don't want it to be my only thing but its mostly talk at this point.
