Oh my word! How the time has gone by so fast!!We've already been back over a week. Think we finally got things readjusted and reset for life.Had the "37 week final preparations" meeting with our midwife. Now it all seems... real... and close... and real close! Only 4 weeks, give or take a week, and new…
Come on in, I’ll give you the grand tour!
Welcome to our humble abode in progress! Hey, you work with what you've got right? And a screen door is what we had, so it was covered with foam board to at least close up the gaping hole.The left side - the kitchen, stairs and living area. Currently set up for bedtime, with 3 beds.The right…
Windows
Oh what a busy couple of days! We are certainly back to "camp blogging"! I blog on the phone, save it locally and then it is all updated next time there is internet. I keep my same routine... but it floods the blog a couple of times a week. Advanced apologies!After spending another night in…
Remembering 9-11
I find it ironic that today, a day in history that has shaped my entire adult life, is the first day being back on our land. A day that changed how I viewed my life and my life as an American. That filled me with terror, transformed into strength, a claiming of power, of resolve,…
First night back
The first night on our land we had nothing but a vision. A dream really as we didn't have much of an idea of what the house would look like. 5 months later, after 8 weeks away, we are back. Looking at the product of that dream. Since we got back to camp to late to…
Can you hear the Angels??
The Angels are singing "Alleluia - Alleluia - Alle-lu-ia"!! I hear them, so loud, so clear 😀 Remember that little strip at the front because I cut the sheets a tad short - and then how the last sheet I cut was 4 feet to short. Get this! After cutting "way to short" piece to fit the peak we…
The house survived
Pretty good IMO. As expected, the rain came in on the side that wasn't covered with membrane. The rain started Thursday afternoon. We went back Friday afternoon to check on things. It wasn't to bad except our makeshift door had blown off and the roof leaking had allowed a couple of inches of water to gather. Mr. Man had…
THIS close!
Good news and bad news. They are anticipating lower winds (45 mph) and slightly less rain, depending on where the rain bands hang around. Flooding they say, is by far the biggest issue. But maybe it wont be to bad on our little spot of Heaven - least thats what I'm clinging to! Either way,…
Prepping for Isaac
Its official. Isaac will be coming just to the west of us (which puts us on the "strong" side of it). The latest from our wonderful weather dudes - it will come through as a Tropical Depression weakening to a Tropical Storm. We are to anticipate 65MPH winds, 8-12 inches of rain and slight risk…
Happy Anniversary My Love
