Looking for Instagram worthy pictures and flawless homesteading techniques?
Sorry, you have come to the wrong place! I’m a working girl that has the delusion that I can be somewhat self-sufficient on my 5 acres. The place is a hot-mess…
Why the heels part? Well, since nobody deeded us the back 40, and we aren’t rich wall streeters that decided to homestead with $1million in retirement money- we have to make money to pay for this thing! Hubby and I aren’t so young anymore- the kids (aka free labor) are grown and gone- so we picked up 5 acres that came with a triple-wide for free at an auction and are spending our very limited free time trying to make it into something.
I totally own up to being cheap, love to grow and preserve my own food, and am blessed that when I can get Hubs to help me, the man can truly do everything…
So maybe as you join us on our journey, and you see the good, the bad and the ugly, you will feel encouraged to at least give some of it a whirl.
Hang on for the ride!
