The day has come! The shell of our tiny home will be delivered tomorrow! So, we had to go prep the land for the delivery guys. Richard and I are both sad we have to work while it is being delivered. But it will be a nice surprise tomorrow afternoon. Stay tuned more to come....................
We are slowly coming along. We have cleared off the land (pics to come soon). We are now in the process of working on the water and electricity. I can't wait to have the building there already! This is my guys working on what is soon to be my floor!!!!! ♡
We have purchased our land and are working on clearing it out. Our house should be moved soon, hopefully. We are asking for all the help we can get. If you know of any toilets, sinks, cabinets, showers, lumber, flooring, sheetrock, plumbing supplies, electrical supplies, etc. that someone wants to give away or sell. Please, please let us know. Our goal is to build this home as cheap as possible. We know everyone is really interested in this new adventure we are taking, and we are inviting you to be involved.
This is the beginning of our new journey. This is our new house. What????? Yes our new house!!! We have made the decision as a family of 5, to down size. I am excited and petrified at the same time. We are going from 2000 sq.ft. to less that 400 sq ft. Adjustments are going to be massive! Everything about our lives is going to change. From the way I grocery shop, to the way we get along. I am super stoked about how much money I am going to be saving! There are so many decisions and ideas into planning for this. It is ALL about storage space!! Can I say that again? S-T-O-R-A-G-E!!!!!! I watched some documentaries about making this lifestyle change, and everyone is extremely happy, and given the choice, want to stay in tiny houses. I plan on documenting everything about this adventure. I hope you enjoy a glimpse into our huge journey to our tiny home.
So I finally got onto foam board what I have been carrying around in my head. This is my goals board. It is hanging on the wall next to my bed. It is the last thing I look at at night and the first thing I see in the morning. I know this is going to me the boost I need to get my butt moving faster and harder. I am down 39 pounds. I am so ready to get out of the 30's. I have been here for sooo long. I hope I don't spend this much time in the 40's. I am trying to switch up some exercises to find what works best for me. My outer thighs are like body builders but my inner thighs are disgusting. They look like cottage cheese. I am loosing more in my upper body than my lower body which is where I need it most. I am not exactly excited about loosing what little boobs I have but, I am willing to lose front boobs if I am loosing back boobs!! So my challenge to you guys.....Get your goal boards up. Look at what you are working for. Put what you need to hear to get it done. Everyone is different. For instance some people wouldn't go as far as I do. I put on my bathroom mirror "Move Fatty". Some may think a little harsh, but being easy on myself made me 275 pounds. Let me see your goal boards!
Today was a huge milestone for me. I completed my first 5k. I totally wanted to run the whole thing, but I quickly realized that I just wanted to finish. I am so proud of myself for not giving up and not backing out. I had two amazing friends that joined me and an awesome support system there cheering me on. Now to train for a 10k :)
I have decided that I am changing my goal vacation spot. I am going to Ireland!! I have always wanted to go, and I got my husband to agree to it ;) I am down 31 pounds, 69 pounds to go till I'm walking the green hills of my ancestors.
