RE: Stuck Between a Rock and a Hard Place... I need a little HELP.
Okay, here's my two cents. I would without doubt go for the barn option. Ten years ago, I may have said nah, I'll do it tough and save money and build myself. However, as you say, time is money and money time - if you can have a base that's secure, warm and reasonably comfortable that is going to help all your other dreams come true faster. You already know it's tough to do that when you don't have basic decent living - water, driveway access, warmth, etc etc. Plus, you'll have more time to hang with your kid rather than be so busy just trying to build something decent. I think you already know what you will do, you just need people to agree with you - yes, go the barn, it's a good idea.Then you can have something in which to accomodate and feed people to help them build your other things!! Love you. x
Lol, I feel lile we've known eachother... or at least it feels like you know me pretty well.
The barn idea was the original idea I keep coming back to. And you're absolutely right, it would make a nice place to have a really large dinner table for, could even be a place to hang out when we need a break from the rain. Plus this would serve two purposes, a home/shelter from the weather plus a step forward in making that makerspace!
The cabin would be quicker to put up (I think) and we'd have that time to hang out with the family not working too... but it would be a single use cabine, I mean a building only used for one purpose...
Thank you River 😁
Ha, of course we know each other, we've been steeming together for a while and crossing paths on at least three communities here! Eagerly awaiting the next update, and love teh way you use steemit as a big sounding board for your plans.
True true! Yeah I guess I do use it like that 😁. Thanks for your help.
