OH WOW! I never anticipated the tons of responses that I’ve gotten on this post!! Thanks guys!! Ya’ll had SO many great ideas and advice! …Lots of which had me giggling at the keyboard and nodding my head! 😂
I should back up and give proper credit. Two years ago we bought the land we are on now. Together, we have built a small one bedroom apartment/house, (purely from watching YouTube videos), that we live in now, just to get us “onsite” for the building of our main house. Later I will Air B-n-B the one bedroom out. We have also built chicken coop with run, and a tool building and a chickshaw chicken tractor. He, all alone, has built a picnic shelter, mower and garden tool lean-to, and is currently building our storage building that will later be his workshop. I need to add that I would’ve or would help in those building projects but I was doing other things like: gardening, canning food, mowing the lawn, clearing land, burning or chipping brush, weed eating some, taking care of animals and cleaning house. So, in all fairness, he does work hard too. AND, he’s already set me up a security system and notifications on my critters. We have rain catch that he designed and implemented on the chicken coop.
I could really do without the comments of “I could buy groceries from the store cheaper and a lot easier than this.” when he’s not actually doing the “this” he refers to… I am (and/or want to start doing — like animal processing (which is a HUGE step for me)). …but, what can ya do, lol.
I’ve got a really good man, some things are just like pulling teeth but I have faith that we’ll get there!
Thank ya’ll so much and please, by all means, keep the comments coming! It will give me and others a source of ideas and encouragement! 🤗
