For those of you who expressed interest at "another" forum and were so helpful with all your ideas and thoughts, I thought I'd let you know that We have all the rough in electrical done, paneling up, and half the ceiling up...
Son and son in law are comingin the morning to finish the louaun (spelling?) ceiling....
Next will be getting the ditch dug from the former barn building (which is now to be my little country store) for the electrical cable....and we've traded the use of our bucket truck to a plumber we know who will dig the ditch for free!!!!
I also was able to get a beautiful french style metal door for the new front door for $20!!!! (from a man whose done repairs for years and has a whole building full of goodies he's rescued from jobs he's done!
We still have to build the little porch as well...
Meanwhile I am sewing like crazy on Christmas aprons and flour sack dish towels, and making all sorts of goat milk soap, so when I get IN the new little store I'll have it stocked!
The current little store off my carport is still busy, mainly with folks coming in and out to buy "farm fresh eggs from happy chickens."
The main thing I'm trying to do is diversify....the more different type farm products I can sell, the better off I'll be,because if one thing is not selling well, maybe something else will! more later!
