Waiting Game!!!

Well, I'm patiently waiting for my cabin to arrive. I think I'm much closer to finalizing the inside layout. Getting excited and a little scared. LOL. Shouldn't be much longer before it's ready to deliver. I'm getting excited. It has been many a moon since I felt like I had something to dream for or something worth dreaming. I feel content inside like, I'm OK. Regardless of what else happens, I'm all good now. LOL.

So here are a few pics of my place. I have so many ideas rolling around in my head.

 This will soon be my home!!! Can't wait, I'm so excited. I had a moment where I really struggled and hard. I have prayed and planned and dreamed about this very moment and the week I went out and started looking another family member did also. I shan't lie, it was HARD because everything I say or do has to be one up'd. I can't dream or think out loud because it's always gonna be overtaken. I hate competition and don't understand why people have to do that. You've had your many chances give me my 1 chance. Oh well.

 The above pic the middle part of the cabin. The middle space is 12x20 and has a front porch you can see in the first pic that is 4x20. I can just imagine my little window boxes with flowers in them. :-)

 Above is the "kitchen" or at least a little bit of it. There is a space on each end that is 16x10 and 1 end is the kitchen/dining and the other is bedroom/bathroom.

The rafters are in and it's ready for a ceiling!!! It is really a great building. Built with hurricane clips so it will stand up better in high winds. I chose to have a green metal roof (come on rainstorm!!!) in their metal roofs they have circulation vents in the peak (you can see above) and then around the building where the eaves/walls meet. It helps keep the building cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. The floors are built with 2x6's instead of 2x4's. That is awesome. So now it's just waiting and planning. Sigh, someday soon I'll have my own little place to call mine!!! That will be a great day.

So Dreams DO Come True!!!

So within the next month I should have my little cabin sitting on my land. As long as it doesn't rain between now and delivery day. I'm already working on pricing and getting everything ready to complete the bedroom area. That is the first step in the inside is the electric wiring and then complete the bedroom so I can MOVE IN!!! I can not tell you how excited I am. I know it's going to take a long time to get it all completed because my savings and tax refund are getting the cabin here and the bedroom finished.

You know just under a year ago I prayed with a few ladies at church that God would lead and guide me and give me a place of my own. :-) Yes, God answers prayers. Shows that He cares about even the little things in our lives but He does things in His time!!!

I think back over the last couple years and I'm amazed that God has over time given me so many things that I now need and I can mark those costs off my list. Someday some of it will be replaced but that is OK and God will make a way. Funny to think back 3 years and realize how unhappy and miserable I was single and then God led me right to a church where my singleness is celebrated, they don't care! Gives you the feeling that someone does care. I don't have to have a family to be important to God and to be used of God. Amazing!!!

It's been a loooooooooong time since I sat down at a computer and dreamed knowing it's going to slowly unfold and plan out what I want. Sigh!!!

So follow me the next few months, maybe years. HAHA. As I begin to build my dream and live out a part of life I never thought would happen.
