ððð Hi! I have been off social media in attempt to quiet the noise and focus on what's most important. I kind of disappeared summer 2023 and I feel the need to share why. In case you were wondering, I still love flowers and I'm still around ð My husband and I had been considering selling our beautiful home and buying a smaller house, with bigger acreage and a smaller mortgage for a few years but the market was crazy so that wasn't going to happen. We had neighbors who were building their own cabin from raw land to a comfortable, beautiful space and we had been watching it come together over the past few years and we decided to consider the possibility of doing the same. Soon after our seedling sale in 2023 an incredible piece of property came on the market in Wentworth. We walked it for hours, fell in love and dreamed of how we'd lay it out. Came home and made the best offer we could but our house wasn't even on the market so it wasn't accepted. At the time, we were pretty heartbroken but now looking back, it was such a blessing. I can see how far out of our price range it was, we would've been living in a tent and still had the same mortgage payment ð not at all in line with our debt-free goal. incredible property, obviously not the one for us ð so all summer we worked hard getting our house ready to put on the market so we wouldn't miss our on another perfect property. God had put it no my heart the winter before to take 2023 off from CSA subscriptions and weddings in order to focus on family and I'm so so thankful I didn't fight it because i had no extra responsibilities or stress (i mean raising little boys is stressful enough, am i right? ð ) and could pour into getting the house ready and enjoying family for the last season in that home. November 2023 we heard about a property possibly coming up for sale and that day we hiked all over it, dreaming and planning again, what we might raise, who we might be able to help and give back to. Guess I wrote too much and fb cut me off ð continued in comments ð
