I think I've become something of a homesteader,,,

Update on the move and the interesting life due to it,,, lol
Well it's been an interesting week and weekend in the new place. We are still camping out as we are still jumping through the very tedious and extremely expensive hoops that Calcasieu Parish has set up for us. We have enough "borrowed" electricity to be able to use a few lamps, a mini fridge, and a space heater for cold nights. We are toting water, not from a well, but from the neighbors who have all proven to be blessings (well all but one set, but that's a different story, lol). We are cooking and heating enough water to clean us and dishes, and other necessary items, and make sure we have enough to flush with so as to be at the very least sanitary. I can honestly say that while I am thankful for all that I have, I have developed a new appreciation of minor luxuries,,, like running water and electricity. I don't know if when this is all done, if I will ever have the desire to go camping again, or well, at least not for a long time. All in all, for the most part, other than a few inconvienences, we are doing well, the boy, the dogs, the chickens, and one very tired, very sore old lady. Hope everyone else is doing well, I've missed you guys. Love and kisses, hugs and prayers,,,t-Mike,,, mmmuuuaaahhh!
