We feel like the Lord was just saving it for us. We've put a lot of work and money into it, but now it is beginning to be our perfect dream home. We never thought that we would have an acre of land to garden and spread our wings. We lived thirty three years in a very close community where we could almost touch our neighbor's house without leaving our yard. I wish you the very best in your house hunt . . . our dream home awaits :)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-24362612168687343972016-04-12T10:52:10.080-07:002016-04-12T10:52:10.080-07:00I love your corner of the world!

I'm having so much fun out there. You would not believe the difference in temperature inside the little building . . . when the afternoon sun hits those windows the thermometer rises 30 to 40 degrees. Some days I have to open one of the vent windows and even open the top of the dutch door to bring it down. Yesterday it was 70 outside and 108 inside . . . a steamy little sauna :) I feel a little bit like a mad scientist . . . taking lab notes and mixing up different soil combos.

Or people that do without pretty things because they think that they can't afford them. There is a satisfaction in doing it yourself and in saving. Around here we work hard for what we have, so wasting is not an option. Not that I haven't wasted money. . . we all have those items that we look back on and wonder why we ever purchased such a thing.

Maybe it's the way they were stored before we purchased them, or something in the chicken feed . . . there must be a certain something that makes them peel easy one time and not the next.
