Just pray for me...

Just took the time to make my way through the 15 pages of this...you are killing it!! Got a lot of my own stuff to get through. Been putting things off for too long with 1 excuse or another. Seeing the progress you have made I may just dive back in. Gonna see if I can follow that advice from so many in this post about taking care of yourself in the process ....last go round ended walking with a cane for a minute and some physical therapy among other things. Push too hard, something will slow you down if you don't take time to do it first.
 
Definitely take it slow and steady, and most importantly take care of yourself as you proceed.
I was recently humbled by a setback and now it’s start over and go slow.
It’s hard because your mind can be 25 years old but your body is more like 89 years old lol!
It’s been fun watching Toasty dealing with his process of getting his house ready!
He’s an inspiration!! Go Toasty😁
 
This place truly is a blessing in disguise for me. You all cheer for me harder than anyone that I've actually met face to face with🙃I can't tell you all how much I sincerely care that you are all here🥰 I was having a rough while until I slowed back down...took time for myself and got back in here. Now I feel so much better; I can keep going again🫡😎🤙
 
As you continue to make renovation progress don't forget to update your picture gallery.
In your corner rooting for you.
Note/pics taken🤪🤙

I'm not sure about hiring kids, not sure they still work along with a lot of adults.. a few years ago I was hay farming and I used to hire anyone who would stack bales.. last try was helping a neighbor and he went to town and asked everyone he knew and couldn't hire anyone, even for $20 hour cash.. so those of us who farmed, ended up going mechanical and or just getting it done ourselves.. but it is hard to load and unload 20 tons after a day of work by yourself..

Not saying there’s not still farm kids out there and hard workers etc, but it seems to not be the “norm” anymore. One way to find good ones the local farmers used to use is to go ask the local football coach who their hardest workers were….which seemed to be a pretty good screening method.

Of course you might hire em for a reasonable wage, but you might go broke feeding them!
 
I'm watching the movie Fight Club right now and a line from it said that the things that you own will end up owning you. Get a dumpster and toss it all so that you can be free of it. I've dealt with two hoarder family members and it's a sickness that affects others in the end.
Past generations that lived through the “Great Depression” too-that sure left a mark on many folks. I knew a lot of old folks as a kid that saved absolutely everything, because in their minds “you might need it” when the world went south again.
