The Amoeba Whisperer: "It's All Dog Training!"

[GoatGal]

Wonka---thanks for chiming in here.

Needs vs. Wants----Didn't I do that?

I left the "Wants" list empty... I'll try to simplify. It's not my strong suit, obviously.
ORIGINAL LIST:

What I Want:
Irrelevant at the moment.
______________________________________

What I Need:

More help around here!

More chances to get out and GAL without paying the price in:
lack of sleep
dealing with GUBU
mess from the dogs if I deviate from their schedule
concerns about getting chores done, locking up the chickens, feeding everyone...
....THEN getting cleaned up and ready to go out.
By the time I'm ready to step out the door, I'm exhausted.

A house that is not a disaster zone.

Better safety measures in place for dealing with livestock.

More security in this house, living here alone, isolated.

Less responsibility with the animals--physical and emotional.

Better health and better sleep.

More support from and contact with others.
--------------------------------------------

NEW LIST!!!

I need:

To be safe.
To have less labor/chores.
To have more human contact on a regular basis.
To have less sleep interruption.

I think this is reasonable, no?

I do not think I can continue like this and stay healthy.
It's been almost a year, on and off, and six months steady.

Better?
