freeeewrite day 1

2/14 reflections. well, wisdom way would be easy. what if i could buy that for 150k? what is a monthly mortgage payment on that? would i even get it on unemployment? (i fear getting stuck somewhere and turning down job...oy.) i like the idea of 3 bedrooms and getting foster kids. i'll go look at that. but then....this adventure! wisdom way makes a lot of sense.

q: can you not make money on a wisdom way house? what happens when you sell? whats up with that process?

i like the rob roy book a lot. Lots of great resources, leads on living frugally.

Do I really want to build something myself?

i like the idea of buying land, doing temp structure. he makes a good case for building oneself -contractor will never care as much as you do even if you are a beginner, you'll bring care.

wow, the landtrust thing was exciting today, too. i'd love to visit those landtrusts. is karen's one of them? i dont think so...which wendell site is?

am i willing to be patient? sure.

then there is the issue of septic, building permits, water, electric. deeds. that stuff. geesh.

i'd love to do this. but maybe i can save myself lots of work...hmmm.

the wisdom way is better than this but is not going to get me debt free.

sounds like to be debt free you buy land, live temporarily on it, and build your own.

so then the question is: could a pre fab house work? i am afraid of getting overwhelmed with this. and yet..those hand builts are SO adorable. maybe i could make an addition!

i want ease. but it is a big deal to do the pumbing, elect. etc, right? what does seal have to say about that part of things...

i'm sleepy
