DIAMONDS VS/ TURDS

It seems I have a talent and aptitude for polishing turds. Yep, I said it, and it can be applied to whatever storyline or thing you would like because it fits. 😉🙄😍 I love to scavenge through dumpsters, thrift for goodwill treasures, surface dusty old loot, rally for the underloved, and transition them to a better place.

In the case of taxidermy, by the “luck” of the draw, I’ve found myself with the specimen runts in class. In my first class, my bird was full of hundreds of worms, throwing me into a tailspin which ultimately upped my stamina and commitment to persevere and overcome. This past weekend, I was given priority in selecting my bagged quail skin and was paired with what I’m referring to as my “ghetto” quail. His feathers showed signs of engaging in alley fights despite living in the wild, clearly didn’t eat much because he was the tiniest quail tot in the room, and whom I’ve lovingly named Lil’ John. Whaaaatttt?...OK! I was disappointed by the inferiority of both my starling and quail, but it was OK because I’m a rockstar at polishing turds, the education I received from Prey Taxidermy was top-notch, I am humbled AF by the entire taxidermy process, and I am ultimately stronger from those experiences.

Those moments were reminders of my lifetime ability and determination to adapt and persevere. All notable qualities, and despite my career of making turds shiny, I’ve arrived at a place where I see an alternative path. The path I see is filled with gemstones, and most notably diamonds, and given my experience and aptitude for polishing, I am wondering… “What in the hell would happen if I polished diamonds?” 💡💡💡

With this change in mindset as I turn right instead of left at the Y, I ask the universe to flood my path with gemstones, and specifically diamonds, because I’m ready to polish diamonds and not turds. Given my new expectations, I have already named the fox I will work with in April, Neil Diamond. And, while I have the universe on the line… could you please return the black pouch FULL of valuables I accidentally left on the plane when flying home from Palm Springs last week? PLEASE AND THANK YOU!!!
