Now, this is quite funny because I never share my emotions or thoughts out loud.
Over the past several months, I've felt very depressed. My husband fell on his back outside on the ice and it was really bad - he couldn't walk till he went in for his surgery. Obviously because he fell on our landlords property, we decided to bring a law suite against him. We got a settlement that I wasn't planned for.
So I've been trying to figure out what to do with this very little settlement. At first, I was running with the idea of getting a travel trailer, parking it somewhere which led to having to park it at some sort of park. Then all we would have to pay is their lease agreement. Then we could do whatever we wanted to. After talking to my husband, I decided that it wasn't a good idea because of our 5 little fur babies. It would have been bad enough for us living in such a small space.
Yesterday I came up with a totally different plan which I talked to my husband about. We would just stay here where we've lived for the past 12 years with an understanding from our landlord. The windows are very old and need to be replaced, the bathroom needs a huge makeover and the floors are those white 12 x 12" tiles and needs a new floor. Despite getting older, I know that I can rework the bathroom and lay in the new floor. We just need to know what our landlord is planning to do with this property.
Coming up with this plan has brought me so much relief.
This has not stopped me from thrifting. This is my job, so I need to keep going. Another issue - I've tried the few top platform for my business. So incredibly frustrated, I decided to keep this platform with Strikingly.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading this.
