A couple of months ago, I was given the opportunity to join a wonderful group of ladies, Moms of Master Books, who review family books from Master Books and help spread the word about not only the books but also the good news contained within. I’ve long been a fan of the books that Master Books, New Leaf Publishing, and Attic Books put out. Many of the books are wonderful creation resources, but even the books that are not creation/Genesis related are solid Biblically. I appreciate that the company has taken a stand and is not ashamed to spread the…

Reflections on the Cabin Flooding
Posted in Family
Time and again, we heard the same statements from the various people who came to the cabin after the pipe burst and subsequent flooding: Wow! You guys are way out here. I didn’t even know this area existed! I can’t believe how much work you did. You guys have really good attitudes about all of this. The first one always made us chuckle.

Posted in Family, and Homesteading
Now that our claim was actually being worked on, we started to see some things begin to happen. The water mediator showed up at the house. He was shocked to see that we had done the entire demolition as this had never happened to him. Basically, all he had to do at this point was to set up fans and dehumidifiers. He said it was the easiest job ever for him. He actually felt bad that we had done all of that work and that it had taken that long for the insurance company to send him out. It wasn’t…
Flooding at the Homestead: Part 2
Posted in Family, and Homesteading
While many people may have skipped making Thanksgiving dinner when faced with our crazy circumstances with the flooded cabin, I felt it was important to at least enjoy that part of our day. It also provided us with some good food to eat without having to stop to make up a full meal. Munchkin liked being able to grab food here and there as she got hungry. Since Munchkin wasn’t feeling well, she ended up keeping the dogs with her and resting most of the day. She also worked on the book that she was writing. Having the dogs with…
