The last house I will build! (Project)

[ssonb]

I have done that type of home repair work twiced before I am not in the mood to do it again.

 

[Terri9630]

We did it (again) because we couldn't pass up the location and price. 2bed, 1 bath house on 10 fenced wooded acres with garage, well, ceptic for almost the exact amount we had already saved for a new car. Paid in cash.

When you can pay cash for all that, that's a deal and you can afford to do some renovations.
Good call

Thanks. It just kinda dropped in our lap, well popped up on my screen.

I f we were retired I might just do that but for the next few years the commute and not being able to get the repair work done and work elsewhere at the same time changes my options. Oh my goodness there is some beautiful property further out.

 

[hashbrown]

Awesome! You have it in the dry!

 

[gumpy]

Finally, yes. Next Monday I should finish the front wood siding. I would have had it done but I wanted to try something different in the porch area.it took me 2 days just to do that much. I should have had the whole front done in 2 days lol. The back of the house will be done just like the gable ends, Dutch Lap.

Thanks all for the best wishes and offers of help. No clue what I'm going to do right now. Uncertainty kills me. I made it to St Louis and waiting on a callback from the VA. No telling how long that will take.
Starting over at 65 is hard but no where near impossible. I covet y'alls prayers.

Gumpy, prayers, wishing you well, and a big hug! Since you had been quiet, it should have been obvious that something was wrong.

I'm not one to complain very much.

 

[TMT Tactical]

I'm not one to complain very much.

Gumpy, you are old enough and wise enough to know the difference between complaining and letting folks offer help. You know the saying, "Pride goeth before the fall". You have online friends, share and maybe the Lord has put them there to provide aid and comfort in your time of need.

 

[viking]

Dang Gumpy, sorry to hear that you're basically up sh!t creek without a paddle, prayers to you friend. Yeah getting older is not for wimps, I can attest to that, I'm still dealing with the side effects of conjestive heart failure, anyway, all the best to you.

 

[Caribou]

My prayers are with you. I'm not close enough to help but others are.

 

[phideaux]

For the first time in my life I am asking a friend to come help me,
gonna tear down and build a new deck behind my house.

It's hard , but I guess, like my wife say's, "You been helping everybody ,all your life, now it's your turn"...

Maybe together, Gump...we can get something done.

Holler at me. I'm retard now.
