This little home is idea for me. 400 sq ft on the main floor and 600 above with a 400 sq ft basement and a porch on the back is perfect. I could live on the main floor and keep the upstairs for hobbies and the basement for food storage for winter.
A similar home next to the lake some where.
I am content for the most part and want what I have and have what I need. But the goal was only to stay here 10 years to learn my lessons and then move on. Move on to what and where was not set in stone. My son, who is going to make me a grandmother in April, is planning a move to the interior of BC eventually. I will want to be close to my grandchildren so most likely would plan to be somewhere in the vicinity.
But then I got to really thinking. I love what I have built here, my little farm , the animals, the little cosy farmhouse. And I have a part time job so it can continue. And I am enjoying my hobbies in the evenings when there is time to reflect.
If I move, I did not plan to take much if anything with me, just liquidate and go. Then I would have to buy new things and set up a home somewhere else, so maybe that is not the best idea. Maybe just to keep the items and furniture that I will need, that I really love, is better.
Then something really hit me. Take a look at the photos. The two cabins are ones that are dream homes, my next homes. The third photos is my home, the one I already have. I have what I want!
The dilemma will be what to do when the time comes. Maybe the kids won't end up moving to the interior of BC anyhow. Maybe Spencer will get a job somewhere else and they will go there or maybe even they would come here, but that I doubt, because they do not like it here.
So basically I have what I want. Now, to concentrate of getting the kids to want what they have too is the next task. My other two adult children are not really currently interested in becoming parents. yet. hmmm.

And this is what I already have. A beautiful little old farmhouse, 800 sq ft on the main floor with a porch and a dirt basement for food storage. I have what I want. Really I do.
