I see that you have open cross beams in your barn. You can put long pieces of wood, PVC pipe, etc. on them to store off the ground.

I resemble that remark—as I look around at unpacked boxes, unfinished interior of this double wide. It still needs trim-ALL the trim. Guess what I don’t know how to do but am gonna learn? Not at the top of my list. House is livable, I gotta go OUTSIDE!

I have no doubt that you will make it into a home you love.

Yeah, but fence/small barn comes first. Got any decorating ideas for stacks of boxes?

I texted my barn cleaning friend this AM "Good Morning Friend. Dark, rainy, muddy Monday... but my morning was MADE by having open access to get both cows fed without having to creep, climb, strain & stretch! Thank You!"

Barn work is on hold this week... work drama.
Turns out the 'difficult' coworker - who I Thought I was finally making some peace with by refusing to be anything but respectful, encouraging, supportive, etc needed to leave unexpectedly yesterday morning for an emergency. Which left me running the scale & preparing for accounting month-end (and getting no lunch break). But I said : GO! Family first. Don't worry, I'll cover for you. Take care of yourself. Let me know if there is anything I can do......
Then I find nasty little notes - left where I could not miss them them - expressing her anger & resentment over me not going even further out of my way to be helpful... supportive...encouraging....
That warm feeling I had thinking things might be turning around??.... turns out I was soaking in a septic tank hot tub.
And now I find out she's out till Wed.... maybe all week. 12hr days are HARD.
