    "I dont need it to be perfect, I just need it to be home". Remember this as you walk into this journey. I'm here with you. 🙏🏽

    I agree with what you are saying about fixing up a home. I am in my 60s and I now own my parent's manufactured home to move in when I retire. I will do most of the work also. I hope u the best and I admire your journey.

      Good luck on your journey. The more it transforms, the more I want to do. It's definitely coming along

    I asked God to give me something i can live in and fix up. My mobile home is that. I love hearing your journey.

      I almost bought one but decided to stay in my “paid for” home. Glad I did.

      I agree that it is not only beautiful to have a place to make their home. It's awesome.
      Remember, it is good to complete a room or pretty much done in lieu of bouncing all over and around.
      I found that when not completing a room, it will cause chaos. It's good to have some kind of order.

    I have no doubt this house is gonna be beautiful. Once you're done ..I think it's wonderful that you get to create your own masterpiece in this house. and what a beautiful journey you're on and, when you're finished, it will be your work of art ..sealed with God's Blessings❤

    Praying for you! New subbie. I just bought a fixer upper house and found the roof leaks...rotten wood. Finding an honest handyman is a chore. I don't know how to do anything handy myself. I'm 52 years old and want to enjoy life so this fixer upper is my journey. Love your channel. You're very resourceful. God bless you

    • @weekendscratcher0079
      @weekendscratcher0079  29 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you. Maybe we can share ideas 😊. It's a lot of work so I fixed it up enough to move in and working on it while I'm living in it. My roof was leaking as well, finally finally got that fixed, new roof as well. Do you have a channel?

    • @linkedinroses9447
      @linkedinroses9447 29 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @weekendscratcher0079 I have one video on my channel but it's not about fixer uppers
      I have an 880sqft home and new roofing is $10k not sure if it's worth staying but it is my re-starter home ,😬 I'm thinking if I had that kinda of money I could travel the world instead?

  •  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Your home is just as cute as it can be! I would be so tempted to keep that metal sink... 😍
    Blessings to you in the new year.

    I commend your independent determination. As someone who knows what it is to remodel and update an older home, allow yourself to take it one project at a time. When you have a completed room to enjoy it will help to keep your motivation and vision. You made an intelligent choice for your peace of mind as well as your future. Best Wishes and may God bless you in your endeavors.

    • @weekendscratcher0079
      @weekendscratcher0079  29 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Great advice. I found myself bouncing from here to there so I had to sit back, write stuff down and revamp 😊

  • @deelite6677
    @deelite6677 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have 3 1/2years until I turn 62 and retire. I agree. It’s about doing what makes YOU comfortable without incurring a lot of debt. You want to be able to enjoy your home and be stress free when you retire. YOU decide what makes your house a home!

      Mine is a little unorthodox because I'm not trying to completely turn this house into the average modern home. I want it to have the natural flaws but still look nice enough with the feel of home 😊

    It's a cute little home it has finesse it has charisma I like it. I will definitely be following you on your journey to your fixer-upper it's got good bones good structure it was your moms and I don't blame you doing things on your own sometimes are easier than having other people come in there and mess it up and you have to start all over again.

    • @weekendscratcher0079
      @weekendscratcher0079  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It's definitely not perfect but it looks really nice. The stuff I needed professionals to come in to do like the roof, septic tank, clearing off land and doing the duct work under the house and checking out the HVAC unit .... I definitely was not going to do that myself LOL

    • @weekendscratcher0079
      @weekendscratcher0079  24 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Timewise, not really. I work so I do this on my own time because I'm living in the house.
      Money .... Not really because I'm not tearing down walls, they are fine. It just needs some TLC. I purchased my home in 2016 and I saw no need to be in my 80s and still paying on a mortgage because I had a 30-year mortgage. When I retire I want to enjoy my social security and not have to spend it back into a house that I cannot take with me when I pass.

    Looks good! If they judge you on your house; they'd destroy me on the house I live lol. We are trying though. It was my granny's old house. Hey, I wrote a novel! Not the best, but I'm proud of it anyway. Good to "see" you! Almost, sis and I are doing uber foods and that helps a lot. I wish I would have all along, but I was always told my car was too old to do people and I never heard of uber foods until my sister found out at work. Miss ya!

    • @weekendscratcher0079
      @weekendscratcher0079  24 วันที่ผ่านมา

      It has four bedrooms 1 bathroom. I am going to eventually convert one bedroom split it in half, half laundry room and half small bathroom for the master bedroom. After my mom passed the house sat here for 2 years and none of my siblings wanted it so my sister signed it over to me. I fixed it up enough to move in it. Now I can take my time and do a little work from time to time

    • @sissmith2750
