    My name is Bonnie, I'm a 26 years old and a single mom. I have 5 year old twins Hannah & Hailey who were born very premature (micro preemies). Because of that my daughters have alot of healthy problems, one more then the other. My channel is a way for me to share MY experience on my family's journey dealing with medical problems and the typical family stuff. My daughter Hannah just got her tracheostomy out after over 3 years so we are readjusting to life again. I am also on a weight loss journey, down 42lbs.

    That is awesome that you are going to own your own home soon. And, who cares that you are going to live in a Habitat Home, if people want to look down on you for that you don't need them in your life!

    • @msbonnieharris
      @msbonnieharris  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Angela Diller that kind of sounds like a double sided compliment.. so far no ones said anything negative

      When you started off your video you mentioned not wanting people to know you lived in a habitat house, then you said they will find out anyway and you didn't care. She was only reassuring you that you shouldn't worry about what ppl think

    My mom is deputy director of Habitat for the county we live in. They are building their 100th house this year! For your mortgage they add up all the costs of building your house and that is what you owe. When you pay your mortgage every month you are paying it directly to Habitat so it cuts out all the extras. It truly is an amazing program.

      Do you get any say so on the style of your home because if I apply for habitat I would like to have I guess control of how my house looks inside and out since it’s the house that I will live in forever.

      @msbonnieharris  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Beggars cant be choosers. It is a duplex but it seems like they perfer to make little subdivisions instead of single houses so 1 they can give more people a home and 2 so that starts forces them to take care of it

  • @bejulcat2923
    @bejulcat2923 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    how long after you filled out the application did you get notified you might be approved? Sorry for all the questions, I applied and although I don't have alot of hope because of my credit..........i'm still praying.

    • @msbonnieharris
      @msbonnieharris  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I honestly think it took a year. It took so long that by the time they got a hold of me I had to give them the next tax seasons info.
      They only go through applications I think when they have something planned because it takes years. And they might have 1 applicant who gets approved and does the hours and then they just wait for someone who's in a habitat house to move out. Every community it a bit diffrent. Depends how active they are where you live

    • @bejulcat2923
      @bejulcat2923 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @msbonnieharris
      @msbonnieharris  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      They usually have the families picked out long before the project starts. You could be in a pile if someone backs out. But they are pretty big on not liking debt. So depending how bad that is

    • @bejulcat2923
      @bejulcat2923 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I sent my application a few weeks ago and got a letter saying they are just reviewing everything and running credit check and such. I do have debt (car) but the only bad things on my credit is medical debt. Maybe I’ll get lucky. Everything else I’m up to date with
