Spring has sprung and all the lil buggies are out. Everything is waking up, scurrying around and enjoying the weather. Including us. And sometimes nature and humans don’t always mix. Recently, one of those times came up. [Read more…] about Wasp Sting Treatment

Hope, prayers, fingers, toes, and eyes crossed!

So, just to check in on our update…

It’s been a while, and if you’ve been following our journey, you know that we’ve set our eyes on a piece of raw land. In our update post, we talked about how a housing offer that fell through led us to finding a piece of property that we thought we’d make our own. We were in the process of going though our “Due Diligence” – checking boundaries, soil testing, appraisals..and everything was checking out one by one until… [Read more…] about Our Journey: An Update To Our Update

So You’re Ready For Some Property – Are All Realtors Equal?

April 28, 2018 By Deidra

for sale DISCLAIMER:  We are not realtors. We are just sharing what we’ve learned with you.

So, you’ve decided, you’re ready to start this homestead journey and for you, it’s going to require a bit more space. You let yourself imagine being on property with enough space to do all of your homesteading dreams – or what you can afford to do at the moment. If you’re anything like us, you could be thinking, “Good grief, where do I start?” One thing you might decide to do is find a realtor. But, should you just use any realtor? I mean, you met your mom’s friend’s sister once. And she’s so nice! Maybe you should just go with her – right? [Read more…] about So You’re Ready For Some Property – Are All Realtors Equal?

I’m BACK! With Golden Paste Too….

April 14, 2018 By Deidra

Hey guys! After a short break, I’m back! If you remember, my very last post, “Can We Talk: Illness On The Homestead“, I was talking about having a plan when things get a lil squirrely and someone gets sick on the homestead. I had just gotten out of a short vacation at Chateau D’ Hospital and felt that was a pretty interesting topic to talk about. Well, afterward everything went great….for about two weeks. Then I checked back in again – same symptoms, same treatment, same answer – “we don’t know what’s happening”. Anyway, here I am and by God’s grace I bounced back quickly – still standing. We still don’t know what happened, but sometimes you have to just look to the sky, say “Thank You” and not be worried about it. I’m alive and that’s all that matters. Anyway, I took a break from writing for a bit, but not from life for sure! [Read more…] about I’m BACK! With Golden Paste Too….
