Dont judge hahaha

One of the many tasks of downsizing is packing up all of my yarn. ohhhhhh I have such yummy yarn. I so wish I could crochet so much faster.

Morning routine

It is so much easier to get things done when you have a routine. I work on a handful of apps where I can earn gift cards. Like i have said it is not fast but if you work it you can make some extra. Last week I cashed out 25.00$ on 2 different apps so a total of 50.00. If anyone is wanting to learn let me know. I will try to help ya get started. Swagbucks has a link

I also use perk, recipt hog, recipt pal, ibota, coin out, and a few others.
They have helped me buy alot of things in the past 5 yrs. All of our Christmas, some of my sons meds, some car parts and what not.
One thing for sure is I make more when I am on a good routine.

Being anemic

Being anemic can suck sometimes. normally I'm pretty good at controlling my iron levels and moving on with life and being productive. however I'm finding that the older I get the harder it is to maintain those levels.  I had a real tough weekend with no energy extreme lethargy tired legs everything upset stomach included might be time to go in and have my blood work checked again totally not looking forward to that.

Sundays

A great day to watch the races and finish up some orders and inventory from the week. A blanket 2 scarfs 2 hats are on the list for today.

Stressed

It really sucks that now all of the long term rv parks are only allowing 2010 and newer RVs. I have no clue of what to do now.... the motorhome in a 78 but in good condition.  It is so unfair. I need help as to where to even look or put it up for sale which I really dont wanna do.

Awesome texture

A day at the dump

Made 2 trips to the dump today. My iron is low and so ready for bed

Part of downsizing is dump runs

700 pounds for our first dump run 45.00 dollars later

That kind of week

Do I really need to say more?????

Greatful

A while back I signed up for swagbucks. It's not alot of money and sometimes can be super time consuming. But yesterday it paid for my sons insulin. It's not the first time I have used my swagbucks earnings to help him and I am so greatful that I can say it wont be my last time. I feels good to help those i love so much in such a way.

Fires

Yesterday was spent putting out fires. I didn't get any pictures but the boys went to the RV park to see about putting the motorhome there for them.  Sadly the RV park has decided they're going to update everything and can't have anything older than a 2010 RV.  That's not going to work anymore since the motorhome is in 1978. when they got home Chandler picked up the mail to find out that his insurance company is canceling him because he's had two accidents since getting his driver's license so he's upset.  Dylan came over to do laundry so I got to visit with him for a little bit which is really super nice.  Then Kurtis

and I went to go help Dad get the risers down because there wasn't enough time for him to do it after work and get the trailer to the shop for repairs after somebody broke into it last month

Washi tape

I print my own pages for my planner so I can choose how much I spend on the printer paper. Which means I will go cheeper the better. I got washi tape to put on the edges after seeing it done on pintrest. I really really like how it adds color and a little bit of weight to the flipping process. So much easier for sure. Now to not become absessed with washi tape. Gotta remember we are going small and to use what I have instead of a color a month. Which is what i wanna do hahaha. It is nice adding the tape it is a great way of not thinking of anything other then not sticking the tape to itself hahaha. Kinda that 5 minutes of not thinking of anything in a de-stressing way .

Downsizing

Going tiny house means getting rid of ALOT of stuff. Which means making a HUGE mess just to clean it all up before the hubby gets home from work.  My goal for the day though is to go through at least 5 boxes off the deck. So far almost 3 boxes are done.

Washing machine decisions

I have been doing my homework on a small portable washing machine for the trailer. I am down to 3 that I like the sounds of

I need to go to the store and touch and feel and see the size of them before I can make an honest decision. But the cost for each seems reasonable. I like all of the reviews I have read. Even chatted with a few ladies who rv full time. None of them would be the best for boondocking but I honestly dont see that happening in the near future hahaha. Plus it will give me some more time to get a few more gift cards saved up

Happy hubby

Robert rode his bike to work for the first time this season. He is a happy man hahahah

Fantastic weekend

Such a wonderful weekend !!!! My inlaws came to town let's just start with that. They are such wonderful people.
A couple of doors were opened after having so many close on us. I am so greatful for the couple that has been opened. It help with keeping things going for sure.
The roadster show was this weekend

I was able to get a big chunk of a big order worked on

we signed papers for our new trailer which will be delivered at the end of the month

and get the motorhome brought home to work on and find a new park for.

Lots to be greatful for. All of those who were able and willing to help thank you so so much. I cant express how greatful we are. Things dont feel so harsh anymore.

What a day

The day started really quiet good with plans of signing papers for the trailer. After getting there and realizing they put the wrong trailer on hold we went on a hike looking for the one we wanted.  I new it would be a day due to my iron levels feeling super low yesterday and lower today. We found our trailer easily but they had to redo all the loan papers which brought the price up.  All of us were totally not happy at all. Felt like the floor was yanked out from under me and all I wanted was to cry. We all went out to chat about options. The sales guy came out and I asked what he could do to compensate for the extra 2000.00 that was added. We got a few add ons and my super awesome inlaws signed for the trailer.

after all the signing was done we had to go get the motorhome from the old rv park. Robert and boys have been working at getting it to run to do this. It was super crazy to see the monster pull up it is huge.

after all the excitment I was able to get iron and eat a good dinner thanks to hubby and kids. Now time for alot of sleep so i can be productive tomorrow. 

Car show

So many to drool over lol

Such love

All the work that goes into. The talent and thought one has is so awesome. To have all of this in one place as well. WOW!!!

Hot rods

It that time of year to go look at incredible hotrods

So many doors

I am always told that when a door closes another has the opportunity to open. We have had so many doors closed on us lately and not in a nice way that I am praying for other doors to open soon. We really need them sooner then later :)

Goals

Part of all the downsizing is setting goals and staying on task. Which is part of why I have been so involved with blogging. My planner to put everything down and pictures to see that i am being productive. It is so hard to see that i am most of the time. Even though I know I have been.  This last weeks goals were working on getting all the stuff from the motorhome cleaned up and a good chunk of the back deck started of which I am proud to say i have accomplished.  I have already started planning for next weeks goals. By the end of march I need all of the back deck done.

Habits

For me my fridays are spent getting things ready for the weekend. I make sure all the house work is done so Robert can get his stuff done and relax. It is one of the many habits I have put in place since I work from home. This weekend will be a busy one too. The inlaws will be here later today. Everyone will go to the roadster show for the day on sat and Sunday we will go sign papers for the trailer and bring home the boys motorhome for repairs and cleaning up and what not. As for me I will be working like crazy on finishing up a few orders. It will be a busy weekend for sure .

Website

Working at adding more and more to my website. Someday I will be caught up.

Followers button

Whoop whoop I just added a followers button to my blog hahahaha

Motorhome drama

February 11 I inherited a motorhome. It was so full of trash and dirty it is hard to believe anyone could live in it. Ever since we have nothing but drama from the park it is sitting in. It is so frustrating. We have been treated badly lied to denied access and now forced to accomplish the impossible.

Working online issues

Some of the issue of working online is when online has issues I cant work. Today I couldnt list to either fb pages or Instagram.

Donations

Part of downsizing is donating. This is the first of many pick ups thanks so much to the Vietnam veterans of America they will be out to pick this pile up. I hope to have another just as big if not bigger next week.

Organizing

Now that we have found our home all incan think about is where will things go? What is most important to keep? What do we need? I am just so excited !

Making progress

If you have not been to my house it has become a majorly huge messy storage unit. After my biological father past away I have been helping the boys clean out his mess. Which was incredably huge. Needing to go through everything to make sure nothing important was lost. my own home has become lost in the mess. I have to get it back under control so I took these incredibly horrid shots just so incan see the progress I make today. 

New planner pages

Super excited with how wonderful the new planner pages turned out. Linda I am totally in love !!!! I have spent most of the morning printing cutting and punching new pages. Now to fill them in.

A fresh start

I am loving how I get to wake up to a fresh start each day. then spend the day seeing all of my accomplishments throughout the day. Part of the goal for me is time management. I feel like I waste alot of time not being productive.

Camera fun

Learned that if you hold your hand up while your phone camera is open to selfie mode,  it will automatically take your picture. hahaha learned something new today
 Thank you Chandler

Such a temptation

She wants to play so badly

Yarn puke

Working on an order and made it way to big so this is what yarn pile looks like after taking it all apart hahaha
