Things are happening!

Wow! A lot has happened since I posted on here.  Pretty exciting actually! So I'm all moved into the camper and after a couple rough days with animals readjusting to the surroundings we are figuring it out!  I'm still using the cabins water to do dishes, to use the toilet and get drinking water as I don't want to deal with filling the tanks or emptying them and honestly its nice to have a routine.  Happily the camper has a working fridge/freezer and I moved in my microwave and toaster oven, although there is a gas stove as well and I did actually use it once to scramble eggs. So exciting! ha!

So everyone is doing well in the camper now, Thelma is enjoying her quiet time away from the "kids" and the dogs in the cabin, she goes outside too which she loves the yard is totally fenced in with 4' galvanized fencing so she is pretty safe which is nice.

So the guy came and ground up the stumps in the driveway which is awesome!  I can even turn my little car around now!

I am continuing to work on the yard down below and spent a week digging out invasives in a 5' round space , I'm going to spread some wild flower seeds as well and just have paths down there to weed whack, there will be NO lawn mowing here!

A few days ago we starting demolition of the inside of the cabin! I'm so excited! My builder coming this week to make a materials list and will start work again Tuesday! 

Its freaking hot the past few days so since we are living in a tin can I went out and got an air conditioner since even though I can go outside and sit in the shade with the dogs, I have two kitties who live in here so I don't want them to over heat. It was quite the challenge rigging up the air conditioner into one of my bedroom windows, it may not look pretty but it works! So far keeping it 10 degrees cooler than outside so I'm happy! 

So thats the latest news here !

Onward!

 

Moving forward!

 The day finally came! Whew I was so nervous about getting the camper out of Melissas driveway since it was a challenge getting it in there , but it came out like a charm, Ryan said it looked like Melissa was ready to jump up and down as he drove it out of there! ha ha! However getting it IN my driveway whew! That was nerve racking but I tell you Ryan is a champ! No wonder so many people recommended him!  So its here, its leveled , and It fits in my little yard perfectly! Tomorrow I'll clean it and start moving in!  Another step in my journey ahead! Stay tuned!

More progress

     So now that the big rock is moved and the coop is finished I sent a message to the guy who moved the camper last fall and said I was ready when he was so this Thursday there will be a HUGE 31' camper in my little front yard! I Sorta paced out its footprint and I think I can make it work but will need to make a platform /steps so my old boys can get into it as camper steps aren't really the easiest thing to maneuver especially for wobbly dogs. 

     I've raked up the "front yard" so all the big stones are gone and filled in the big holes from the tractor that moved my big boulder, also got up the dog fence and started cutting down the invasive honeysuckle that has invaded the whole lower part of the yard , started digging a fire pit hole where I will burn it , but want to weed whack  around it as that area covered with invasive "ditch lilies" but of course since my stuff is mostly packed, I found the batteries for my weed whacker but as of yet have not found the chargers....went thru all the boxes in the greenhouse today in preparation of moving more stuff in there soon and also trying to find the chargers to no avail so it will be back to the storage area /my future bedroom to hunt again. 

     Its weird to think I'll be moving out of this space soon, I'm honestly a little sad about it which is weird !  Its pretty rough in here but cozy and all the critters have realized its home now. So by next weekend we will all be moved again into the camper. Thelma my old kitty will stay in here though as she loves the greenhouse and she can be sure no critters move in.

Its so nice seeing Montgomery outside without a rope hitched to his collar!

My little home, I can't wait to see its upcoming progress!

 Going to the gym 5 days a week, sleeping better without meds, finding time to read, having awesome friends, family and neighbors.  I can truly say I'm happy.

Little coop is all done except for maybe a flower box ....

Meanwhile I got to go to my granddaughters track meet , I'm so very proud of her. My heart aches a bit now and then though as it makes me sad that Anders was missing this he loved his Grandchildren so very much and would be so very proud of them! 

So every day now is a little bit of progress and I am truly excited for the future:)
