You Reap What You Sow.. : )..

I like my job, but sometimes the continual loud, unwarranted

noise that co-workers make tends to make me irritable, cranky

and stressed out.  I don't know what it is about having a job at

an alarm company's call center makes people think

it's ok to stand around talking as loud as they

can across pods to their friends non-stop,

but by gosh, that's my life 40 hours

a week.  It's enough to drive

me absolutely

insane.

Sigh.

 

But!

There are times like this that make up for the stress

and irritation that my co-workers rudely create.

 

I helped one of my favorite local wineries

harvest their first grapes last year.

They called it their "First Harvest" and it

was the first time that I had ever

done anything like that!

 

It was....  Awesome..

I called it "Grape Therapy!"

It was soooo peaceful,

walking around snipping grape clusters,

listening to the music playing

on their outside speakers.

 

Ahhh.

I loved it so much that I also helped

another winery with three of their grape harvests,

and I plan to do them all again this year.

 

Yesterday?

I ventured out with my mother-in-law and

friends to Ladoga Ridge in Smithville.

They were the first winery that

I helped.

 

What did I see?

This.

Ladoga Vignoles "First Harvest".

Squee!

I helped pick those grapes!

Ooooh.

You know that I had to buy a

bottle of that!

Not only was it delishus!!

It was suhweet just knowing that

it was part of my

Grape Therapy.

Ahhh.

Nice.

Luv, Luv, Luv, Luv, Luv it..

: )..

I got to enjoy that memory with

every sweet sip of wine.

Awesome.

It was great back then,

and it was super great last night.

Can't wait for this year's harvests!!

Ooooh yeah.

: )..

Ahhhhhhhhh.

Best.Therapy.Ever.
