Progress!

 Finally things are happening! 

While waiting for spring to fling here at my new little spot in the woods , a friend from the gym asked me to join her in an event at the gym called Spring Fling! First event for both of us to participate in and we had so much fun! It was so inspiring to see so many amazing athletes competing in the the performance division and the rest of us worked so hard and some amazing work was done! There were three workouts with 15 teams participating in so after you were done you got to rest and refuel before your next event. 


Along with the 3 workouts above there was also a "floater" workout which was one of us running on the echo tread mil 3 minutes while our partner used the SkiErg for 3 minutes. !

We did get recognized for our hard work and we are ready to participate again next year!
 "Power Moms!" 

Mean while the schedule that has to happen here has started! In order for my builder to be able to go any further he needs my chickens out of the house! So a coop needs to be built so TA DA! I ordered the materials and got it started a few days ago, hopefully it will be done before next weekend.  It is 5x6 and tall enough in the center for me to walk in which is what I really like since its fun to hang out with chickens..:)  I find them so relaxing to watch and I enjoy getting outside to care for them..

I got to test out the distance between my new property and my daughters on eclipse day, only a mile but it was such a beautiful day and they invited me down to come watch with her family along with Her Dad and step Mom.  It was funny how we all were laughing at how many people were coming up and they shut down so many businesses and asked people to not drive etc but then when it started we watched and when totality came about , oh my gosh, we totally understood, the air got cooler and cooler while the moon was moving in front of the sun and the light got darker and darker, such an amazing experience! It was inspiring and so very beautiful.





Once the light came back I walked back home pretty much uphill all the way! I am working hard to stay healthy and now going to the gym 5 days a week! Love the people, the community and bonus I get to see my daughter too <3

So once I get my coop finished , I will get the camper moved up here and move out of my little house into it and then start ripping the walls down! While I wait for my builder I hope to get the lower part of my property cleaned up and a fence up for my dogs which will  also will help to protect my chickens too. Also have a HUGE bolder to see if someone can move away from my greenhouse not sure why it was placed there but it for sure is in the way!  I am so excited even picked up the paint that I'm going to use as I'm going to paint my coop to match the house...:)

So thats the latest on my ever going saga of my life , the sun is shinning so its time for me to get to work!
