    Your positive reaction says a lot about who you are as people and personalities. And don't forget that your 4 boys watch you carefully, especially in times like these. God bless you both and family.

      The fool saith in his heart there is no God! But God loved you so much and we are all sinners and there is no place for sin with him or it would be like this on earth. He is a Spirit but became Flesh in the name Christ Jesus and he was slain for all sinners who trust in him for forgiveness and he arose the third day conquering death so we don’t ha e to die but will have everlasting life with him and the Father! It’s harder to not believe in him then it is to believe yet you bet your soul on a prideful and stubborn heart. Ask Jesus to reveal himself to you and he will. Call up on him. He will save you from sin, and death. Romans 10 9-13. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. Trust him now before he leaves you for what’s coming!

    You are going to be so nailed down to whatever property you end up with, between projects ,garden, and farm animals. You might enjoy exploring the places, sights, hikes, people, groups, resources.

    • @kathleenschaefer8208
      @kathleenschaefer8208 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      You could also find plans for feeding and watering, etc. that are lower maintenance...
      like on a timer for water refill, and multi day reserve for feed. Cameras to keep an eye on it...
      Set up so fewer steps, workstations- tools and materials near at hand where they'll be used.

    Thank you for the update. I was wondering. Bought the house and property where I live thirty-some years ago. Looked at a few places and totally loved this place, still do. Looked at the house and before making an offer, my good friends brother made an offer and got it. Was so sad. A month later, his offer fell through. I was so happy. It was a God thing. The wait was so worth it. Enjoy each other. If it is meant to be, it will happen; in God's time not ours.

    @cynthiafisher9907 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I’m glad you’re still in good spirits after all the waiting. Here’s a tip that may help....Estes freight lines has a deal where they will send you an empty truck trailer, you have a few days to fill it and put up a barrier, they pick it up and take it to your destination and you have a few more days to unload it. They use the unused space to haul other things close to your destination and unload it before they come to bring your stuff. When my daughter moved from Idaho to Texas a few years ago it cost about $800. I’m sure the price is higher now, but it might be worth looking into. It was a lot cheaper than hiring a Uhaul at the time and they didn’t have to deal with taking it.
