What’s Happening

So we are moving. That is what we have decided. This town has gotten pretty toxic over the last few years. It has been decided that we are going to leave this small town and try to find another somewhere else that isn’t quite as bad. Cause honestly I think it’s getting pretty bad every where. So here’s to hoping we can find what we are looking for.

This will be bitter sweet for me because this was my father’s land. It’s hard to leave that and I know there will be many tears involved over the coming weeks because of that. However, that said, I believe this is what is best for my family right now.

I have a friend that is going to keep the goats until we can get settled and make a space for them. We have sold the chickens and hope to get more once we are settled. We sold the cows last month and we haven’t been able to find pigs in a while so there are none of them right now either.

I was completely against moving at first, but the  more I think about it, I am a little excited to see what this next chapter is going to hold for us. This neighborhood has become so bad in the last couple years. I’m glad my Dad didn’t see that. The neighbors make hard for me to want to stay. They fight all the time and it’s loud enough that it sounds as though they are in my living room. So the more I think about this, the more I am certain this will be a good thing for us.

We are hoping to get more land this time. We are on one acre right now so I would like 10 or more but would be happy with 5. We are looking in areas that are cooler than where we are in Southern Arizona, but we don’t want to go so far that it snows every winter so we are thinking Wilcox or maybe down in Douglas where Aarron’s family is.

I will continue to work on my blog and post every week while we are in transition. I am hoping that my excitement will continue to grow as we get closer to the move. I know this is what is best for us and that is what I am holding on to right now.

Have a great day!

  1. Sorry to hear you have to move, but I hope it’s going to be great for you. I honestly would love to move elsewhere myself. I would love to get out of my town and maybe even live in another state.

  2. I am so sad for you but it will be better it sounds for you in the end. I am not surprised you cannot find pork… I think china owns like 94% of the world’s pork supply….. crazy and sad you had to let your chickens go too. Cannot wait to read about your new ventures when you get settled somewhere new and are reunited with your goats and more!.

  3. Moving out paves for different emotions especially if you’ve known the place all your life, like in your case. It might be lonely at first, but you’d definitely be able to adapt with the new environment and completely settle yourself. Wishing you and your family all the best!
