We are building our house by hand... 20 x 40 feet 1 and a half story...on the back 40 of my parents land. It's been a long haul, and it's been put on pause several times due to pet surgeries,$ etc, but we are paying for it as we go and doing it all ourselves. Right now the outside is mostly done (we will eventually add a porch and deck)so we can focus on the inside! It's about 800 square feet total with a half loft. Perfect for the two of us and our two Weenie dogs and kitty! Just a few pics. :)

HOLY SHIT. IT'S AMAZING! It's absolutely perfect! I can't get over it right now. Look at you! All productive and seriously badass n' shit? Man. Lady crush.
We live in a mobile, but now I'm all about doing THAT. It's amazing, Tiff.
tifflery
@hamsterjane lol. Thank you. :) It's hard to keep going sometimes when you think of each little thing left to do, and how much each freaking screw and board and insulation costs... ugh. BUT, when you take it a bite at a time and just do what you can as often as you can... it somehow starts to materialize and you're kind of in disbelief that it's actually coming together. ;)
aleisakeyes
How cool! 🤗
tifflery
@aleisakeyes Thanks! :)
loveonceagain
So amazing! Looks awesome. 😍
tifflery
@loveonceagain :) Thank you for saying that! :) I know it small, but we're kind of simple people so we think it will be perfect....eventually. :)
loveonceagain
@tifflery My husband and I with our 2 babies live in a little over 1000 sq ft. Simple is doable and freeing. There is nothing small about bringing your dream to life with your bare hands. So inspiring!!!
simplyangell
Wow! How awesome is that! And it really is beautiful. I definitely want to see it once you add the porch and what not.
tifflery
@loveonceagain :) Thank you. That's what we believe too. I am so happy to find you! Everything is bigger in Texas... lol. It's a bit out of the norm here so it can be a exhausting staying true to what we want with pressure from our friends / family.... lol. They mean well, but what they want isn't necessarily what we want, you know? Plus, we don't have amazing jobs or trust funds lol, so we are doing what we can. It's all we can do! :)
tifflery
@simplyangell Well, if you're still on here a few years from now... lolol. Nah, I'll update pics as we go! :) thank you for the kind words! :)
simplyangell
@tifflery most likely I will, lol! So keep sharing your updated pictures. You guys made a dream come true and that is just so amazing and inspiring🙂🙂🙂
tifflery
@simplyangell lolol well, we are trying to make the dream come true.... still very much in the thick of it right now. :) thank you so much for your love and support. I truly appreciate you. :)
loveonceagain
@tifflery I understand that. My family tries to get us to move back home but we have found home here and feel it will be better for our kids in the long run. But that's what it is all about. .. what you feel is best for you. Sending you well wishes and can't wait to see more pics!
tifflery
@loveonceagain exactly. If you aren't true to yourself, no one else is gonna be! :)
ksadog22
You are awesome! We aren't building ours but renovating an old farmhouse and it's gutted! I just resanded all the kitchen cabinets and love it!
tifflery
@ksadog22Awesome!!!! renovation is freaking hard. You have to work with what is there, almost nothing just fits like it should since all the stuff you buy at the store etc is made in different specs and standards than what your house was built with. I've done a little of that and it was sooo complicated! I would love to see some pics!!!
tifflery
@ksadog22 We were planning on doing something like that at the beginning, but the cost of finding something to move to out property was CRAZY. So we just decided we would do it ourselves. (Lol famous last words...) Pics please!!!!!! :) are you going to be able to insulate? I know there's an old farm house on our land from the 20s and there is no easy way to add insulation because of how the walls were built.
minarakhshani
That is so awesome you guys built your 🏠 by hand! It's amazing!
tifflery
@minarakhshani Thank you so much!!! But, it's really just the shell right now... lol. It WILL be a house! :)
ellenstar
Hey thanks for the follow and shares! That is so cool you guys are building your home by yourselves...It reminded me of my home growing up, my parents also built their own. It took longer than they thought but they still live there, 20 years later! It will be worth it. :) Have a great night and happy poshing! -Sydney
tifflery
@ellenstar thank you so much! And thank you for following and the shares! :) Yes, it's definitely taking longer than we planned, but I think it will be worth it... eventually. :) Have a great week!!! :)
minarakhshani
@tifflery Girl you pretty much already have the house, now you get to make it your home! The inside is the fun part 😀
tifflery
@minarakhshani lolol. Yes, I'm defintely looking forward to the next steps! Every little thing is making it look more livable. We are about to frame out the loft with knee walls and then all the framing will be done and we can start plumbing and electric! :)
elimmahwebstore
This is really awesome. Must be a sweet dream coming true. Oh how i love the work you guys are doing, wish i had the guts to do the same. May God give you more grace to press on to the end. Be mightily blessed.
tifflery
@elimmahwebstore Awww. Thank you so much! I appreciate it and you so much. It's most definitely still a work in progess, and there's much to do, but I just keep telling myself "a bite at a time".. lol. Thank you for your support!!! :)
tifflery
@elimmahwebstore oh, and, you DO have the guts. Lol. If you want to do it, do it. You have one life and one chance to live it. It's not hard when you take it one step at a time, learn everything you can about that step, do it, and move on to the next learning session/task. If I can learn how to do this, anyone can. :) I believe in you.
elimmahwebstore
@tifflery Thanks for that, really means alot coz sometimes we don't believe in ourselves until someone else points it for us. Oh i wish this project comes together sooner for you two, its going to be an inspiration.
tifflery
@elimmahwebstore exactly. This. You're capable of so much that you would never think possible. I remember looking at the house at several points after we finish the framing, or the roof or the siding and thinking. Jeez. We're really doing this!? Lolol.
elimmahwebstore
@tifflery It must have made you rethink your potential or even gave you a purpose or two for your life, what an accomplishment. You are a toughie.
acfree14
Thank you!! I just happened to come across the bag tonight and HAD to have it!! I’m super excited! Awesome house too! Thanks again!!!

@momoretro thanks, bud!! :)
hamsterjane
YOU are a sweet, caring, WONDROUS human and I dig your guts.
You sent me your bible (is that what you referred to it as? I can't remember... guide book?)! And I've been wanting to read the other one for a long time. Dee is supposed to be a super cool lady. She helped this kid Ben build his tiny house down the street from my old apartment. It was fun to watch it progress on my ride to work. And Janis! Blarg. You just...yea. heh.
Watch YOUR mail.
hamsterjane
ALSO: I don't think I ever told you what I ended up using Horseasaurus for, and I think you'll appreciate it...
He's my inhaler holder, so that I can find it easily in my pack, AND make me laugh when I can't breath.
tifflery
@hamsterjane lol. I guess you got it. :) Yay! Yeah, I got a copy of the one book, the good life lab for you...so I still have mine too. :) I can't believe you haven't read Dee's book! Man. Her sense of humor is awesome. She seems like a fabulous person. Oh, and Janis had the exact right colors around her, so I couldn't help it!!! You NEEDED it!!!! :) Glad you liked it!!!!!
tifflery
@hamsterjane That's fabulous and great !!!! Although should you trying to laugh when you can't breathe? Bwhahahaha!!!!!
hamsterjane
@tifflery Wait...you actually got me one? What the shit, dude!? Blarf. I can't believe you did that. THANK YOU WONDERFUL HUMAN. It's too cool, dude. Dee does seem super cool! I watched a documentary with her in it, and I just thought "I wanna BE that lady". Korry saw Janis and just said "Dude. Are you guys like, best friends?"
tifflery
@hamsterjane hahahaha. Yeah! It's really that good! :) Lol. That kinda makes me feel good ... what Korea said. Less creeper anyway. Lolol
tifflery
@hamsterjane ugh. KORRY. sorry. :/
hamsterjane
@tifflery It isn't creepy at all. I dunno. I started crying a little. I've never even met you and you're 1000,000 times nicer and better than people I had been friends with for years. Kinda...ya know...tugs on me little heart stringers. It also makes Korry happy, because I don't have friends? Someone being kind to me other than him makes him happy.
I just got off work not too long ago and I'm reason the section 'To Live a Docommodified Life'
Oh he'd be way cooler if his name was Korea.
tifflery
@hamsterjane oh no!!! Don't cry!!!!! I don't want that!!! Oh, yeah, he's definitely Korea from now on. :)
tifflery
@jbestebhs aww. Thanks! But, I definitely don't think I'm an inspiration yet. Lol. Gotta actually finish something before that. Lolol. :)
twinkieheart
@tifflery this is rad! I love in a mobile home on someone's land but I'd love to do this❤ we had a cool ass place here called re- oh crap what's it called... it's like recycled house building supplies and you can buy the materials to build a house for hella cheap! They're donated by businesses that had leftovers and rich people up in the hills here it's pretty cool. Anyways I love your closet and also your buddy up there too her closet is rad too, you guys are 🤓❤😎
tifflery
@twinkieheart lolol. Is it maybe the Re-Store? Habitat for Humanity? Oh, girl we've got so much stuff from there!! :) anything we can get discounted or used is totally considered!!! Hey, I've lived in a mobile home, a 21 foot rv, a 34 foot rv, an apartment, you name it. There's no shame in any of it! There's a season for everything!!! If you decide you want to do something similar, though, let me know!!! Oh, and this is on my parents land... I'm not rich either!!!!
twinkieheart
@tifflery that's it! Ha that's cool i dost know there were other ones but yeah habitat for humanity! I just entered a contest to win a playhouse for my son from them it's like a tiny cottage airborne built it's sooooo cool! I'm having sooo many issues in life with my husband and the living situation but down the road if i ever devise to go for it, I'm hittin you up mama! ❤
twinkieheart
@tifflery friggin auto correct lol so many dumb words 😂 I'm sure you know what i meant (not devise)
tifflery
@twinkieheart lol. Of course! Ok. I understand. I was in a... situation in college...no kids. 1.You deserve peace and love and happiness. Don't let anyone try to take that from you or tell you otherwise. 2 Nothing will really change until YOU decide that it will. Weird since it seems like he's in charge, but trust me. YOU decide and it's like a page turns. Crazy. 3. You are stronger than you think. I promise you that. Much much much stronger and more capable than you ever imagined. *hugs*
twinkieheart
@tifflery you're so cool, I'm so glad to have met you on here!❤
tifflery
@twinkieheart I'm definitely not cool, lol. But I'm glad to meet you too, bud. :)
hamsterjane
This book is blowing my mind...
tifflery
@hamsterjane YAAAYYYYY!!!!!! Doesn't it make you want to do it??!!! Ugh. I wanna learn how to weld. I can use a cutting torch but that's it. :/
hamsterjane
@tifflery Dude. I've wanted to 'do it' for YEARS. I lived on a boat for awhile when I had a quarter life crisis...but uh...I got super hungry. Heh.
Uuugh. I do too. My other Poshmark buddy Alli @oldsoulstudio is a total badass. She's a fire fighter AND a welder. AND she has an adorable little pit bull family, AND she's going to school to be an EMT. No idea how she does it.
tifflery
@hamsterjane lol. You lived on a boat? ! Like... parked, or you traveled around?!?!?! That is crazy awesome!
hamsterjane
@tifflery Oh god, PARKED! I can't sail a boat! My sister can, which is super cool. She's a boat nerd. My Dad was a boat nerd. It was kinda like camping? Like camping with cats EVERYWHERE. So many ferrel cats! I'd find fish bones all over the damned place.
tifflery
@hamsterjane hahahaha!!! Ok. Well, STILL super awesome!!!!!!
hamsterjane
@tifflery It was SAD, Dude. I invented something I call 'Boat Drink' (rum mixed with cheap ass white wine), and I road my bike 5 miles to work at this janky ass Hell's Angels bar (because I had lost my license for the THIRD time). And I found a significant other at a 7/11 that ended up being a 2 year long abusive Sid and Nancy story 😂 Best quarter life crisis EVER.
hamsterjane
@tifflery Oh, but neither of us died. There was NO stabbing or death. He fine. We fine.
tifflery
@hamsterjane lolololol. Oh please write a book. I would read it and buy it for everyone I knew.
tifflery
@bootjunkie65
kittylover5
Oh wow, that is going to be a really nice looking home. A home built with love. 💜.
tifflery
@kittylover5 lol. And sweat and tears and grumpyness and annoyance... lololol. :) Thank you! I appreciate you!!!
mkerummage
@tifflery “on the back 40” 😂 too funny! This is awesome 👏🏻 and inspiring! And looks really beautiful! What a cool thing to do! Thanks for sharing! 👍❤️
tifflery
@mkerummage lol. Thank you! Yep, we are technically about 1.5 miles from the parents house (as a crow flies) but we're hoping it's far enough... lol. Thanks for the support. I really appreciate it. It's taking waaaaaayyyyy longer than we anticipated, but at least we're doing something, I guess? :) Merry Christmas!!!!
mkerummage
@tifflery Merry Christmas to you too and Happy New Year! 🎆 I’ve been on a posh hiatus for the holiday and continue to be until the 4th 😂 Maybe longer 🤷♀️ it’s too cold here!

marmata11
@tifflery I’m not trying to push on sale, but if you want that red wallet, I’ll sell it to you for minimum ( I think it’s $3). You can re-sell it. I just really like your listing, project and your pets 😊. I know I sound like a crazy lady...
tifflery
@marmata11 well thank you so much for the offer! I don't want to take anything like that from you! I really appreciate you even thinking about it! Your sweet thoughts for us is more than enough! :) thank you so much for sharing, too! Oh, it's ok, we're all a little crazy, aren't we? :) I know I am! Lolol. *hugs*
marmata11
@tifflery if you change your mind, just let me know 😊 I’ve never done this before, I wish you best of luck.
tifflery
@marmata11 you're too sweet. Thank you so very much. I really do appreciate it. :)

siciliangal
@tifflery You go girl!!! Love it AND respect you for it !!!! 😎😎😎
tifflery
@siciliangal hahaha. I don't know about respect, but thank you sooo much! :)
siciliangal
@tifflery Well I homesteaded on 20 acres for 10 years when my kids were little, so I know about making your dreams come true with hard work😍😍 So yes, respect😉😉
tifflery
@siciliangal awesome!!!! We're hoping to eventually get there...I want chickens again... (I had some in grad school and basically lived off the eggs. ) lol. We're Hoping to lean further and further off the grid as we go. :) composting and rain water harvesting and wind generators.....tell me stories!!!! :)
siciliangal
@tifflery Chickens! Loved my chickies! Rabbits, geese, goats, guinea hens. Composting, rainwater etc.. Yup loved chopping wood and baking in a wood fired oven😍 We had propane, but only used if really necessary. Had a generator for the evening. Hard work but my kids loved it and remember it fondly. We had 7 raised bed gardens, I think the kids grazed in them more than the animals tried to Lol! Good times🤣🤣🤣
tifflery
@siciliangal lolol! Yay!! We have a garden, and we had goats when I was younger. I want at least two. Lol. We are thinking about a wood stove or rocket mass heated (dragon heaters.com) still thinking about propane....will def. Have to have a though. Gets over 100 here everyday for most of the summer, and it's very humid. :/ at least until we toughen up or get tired of the bill. Lol.
_1emmy_
@tifflery Tiff!!!! My hero ❤️❤️❤️
tifflery
@_1emmy_ hahahahaha. Thanks, but I feel bad for you if I'm your hero. Lolol. :)
_1emmy_
@tifflery I very much want to live off grid eventually ❤️ your house project is so inspiring!!!
companion53
Your house, built together with your own hands, is a treasure to be cherished for a lifetime. It's quite an accomplishment! May you enjoy peace, health, and happiness there.
tifflery
@companion53 thank you so much for the good wishes!!!! :) I'm just ready to be finished, but, it's a journey. Lolol
llm4
@tifflery That’s amazing!!!! Thanks for all the shares!
llm4
@tifflery It looks beautiful!

@llm4 you toooo!!!! Lol!!!! :)
nannyharper
@tifflery Good for you guys! No., it takes time, money, patience & a lot of love but Dreams Really Do Come True! When it's all said and don't hon you two can sit back with such a sense of pride know you accomplished it "Together" ! Congrats on your beautiful new home Tina
hamsterjane
How's the Izzy? She doing any better?
tifflery
@hamsterjane well, not worse, but I'm thinking the medicine might be a bit much? She is extremely hyper active and wreckless....like maybe she's having a reaction to it? It's kinds like counterproductive to crate rest ... we are gonna give it to her twice a day instead of three times and see if it's better in a day or so. If not, I'll call the doc and see about a diff. Medicine. :/
hamsterjane
@tifflery What did they give her? Tuck had that reaction to a 'downer' one time. It was like when a little kid (or adult) takes Ritalin when they don't actually need to.
tifflery
Exactly! The side effects said could cause extreme drowsiness, but she is climbing the walls of the crate, and running when we're trying to get her to take it easy and go pee...it's like she's on Crack or something.
tifflery
@hamsterjane were hoping maybe it's just tooo much. It said 1 to 3 times a day or as needed. She said to start at three times, so we did, but we're gonna drop it to two and see how it goes.
apatte2
Omg are you kidding im in shock. This is another level of excellence I just did not know existed. I'm Wowed. Speechless. Thank you so much for sharing. You guys are setting new standards!!!!!
tifflery
@apatte2 lolol. Bwahahahah!!! I wouldn't go that far!!! :) thank YOU for sharing÷÷ you have an amazing closet!!!! I kinda got sucked. I really like your style!
tifflery
@apatte2 Got. Sucked. In.... lol.
apatte2
@tifflery thanks sooooo much!! I really love and enjoy fashion so that means alot to me :)

abcd8698
Love love love your house and how it’s being built by hand! You guys are amazing!!!
tifflery
@abcd8698 lol. I wouldn't go THAT far...but thank you. It's been on hold again with all this most recent Max and Izzy neck stuff, so I'm anxious to get back to it. I'm hoping thongs will work themselves out soon and the babies will be ok and we can try to get back to work on it. :)
abcd8698
@tifflery Oh things will soon be better, I can tell! 😊 Always remember, “This too shall pass.” Hang in there, and tell your babies that better days are coming! ❤️
tifflery
@abcd8698 I sure will. Thank you so much. :)
cooper251955
Good morning Tiffany
How much lower can you go on the backpack? $120?....
tifflery
@cooper251955 for you I could do 150. Before I drop it that low on here, though, I'm gonna put it on ebay and see how it goes. How are you doing?! Fully recovered??!! :)
cooper251955
@tifflery still off work, going through physical therapy. Can you possible go $125? Please?
tifflery
@cooper251955 Sorry, I can't go that low right now. I need to get my investment back If I can. I might be able to drop it that low on here after I try it on ebay for a bit.
tifflery
@cooper251955 ugh. Still in physical therapy? From your fall??? Oh man that sucks! I'm so sorry!!!
cooper251955
@tifflery i made you a counter offer.... please accept it😢😢
cooper251955
@tifflery yes from my fall🙃🙃
tifflery
@cooper251955 I split the difference from our offers. :) Sorry, that's really the lowest I can do right now.
cooper251955
@tifflery can you please do $135 free shipping? Please 😢😢
tifflery
@cooper251955 to offer free shipping I think I have to make that offer to everyone, and I'm not ready to do that low for anyone besides you. I'm sorry. :(
cooper251955
@tifflery i think if i declined your offer you can make a private offer to me. Is there other people liking it?
tifflery
@cooper251955 yes. There are other likes and it would make that offer to everyone. I'm not going to do that right now, I'm sorry. :(
cooper251955
@tifflery i understand
cooper251955
@tifflery if i make an offer of $136 will you accept it? That was your last offer 😊😊
tifflery
@cooper251955 hey babe, yes, of course I would. But try adding it to a bundle! It just hit me earlier. That's how I can make an offer to just you! Duh!!!! I'll see if it will be cheaper for you if I do it that way or if it will give you discounted shipping!!
cooper251955
@tifflery i don't see anything else i want 😢😢
tifflery
@cooper251955 oh that's ok, you can have just one item in a bundle!!!!
cooper251955
@tifflery done
tifflery
@cooper251955 dang. It's just bringing me back to the page from before, and says I've already made an offer and you declined it. :( it's not letting me offer again
cooper251955
@tifflery now what do i do? Make a new offer?
tifflery
@cooper251955 yes, if you want to, I'm sorry, it's not going to let me offer you discounted shipping to just you. :( I'm sorry.
cooper251955
@tifflery i just made you an offer, what kind of discount were you going to give me? I could give you my email?
cooper251955
@tifflery i made an offer i think you can counter offer and offer discount shipping now
cooper251955
@tifflery i thought it was $136 with discount shipping?
tifflery
@cooper251955 I can't offer discount shipping. I tried and it won't let me without sacrificing even more of what I would earn from the sale. I have already offered the lowest I'm willing to offer right now. I might be able to take less in a week or so, but for now, this is where I'm at with the amount of interest in the bag. You said you would offer my last counter but then offered less. I need to have this listed for much longer before I can take that offer. Thanks!
cooper251955
@tifflery so you won't consider $136? I'm confused 🙃🙃
cooper251955
@tifflery can you accept $136 with regular shipping?
cooper251955
@tifflery I'm so sorry to be such a pain 😭🙃😭🙃
cooper251955
I sent you an offer of $135 with regular shipping 😊😊
diva55
👍🏾 great job😊

This is absolutely awesome. So nice to meet you on here.💜🙏🏻❤️🐶🎶🔆🤗💜😽🐶🐶🐶
tifflery
@frippislandsc thank you! :) you too!!! I obviously have a soft spot for the pups and kitties you're helping out. :) you're my kind of people. :)
stargirl75
Absolutely beautiful. My boyfriend and I have a dream to do this in Belize with our two rescue pups! Just have to wait for the darn kids to get out of our current house! Hahaa
tifflery
@stargirl75 oh man. Belize?! Yeah, you win. Loloolol!!!! :)
stargirl75
@tifflery the American dollar is worth 5 Belize dollars! We’ll be able to retire there comfortably and get a home on water dirt cheap. Plus we want to start a doggie rescue there in retirement. It’s just a dream right now but hopefully one that will come true someday!
stargirl75
@tifflery love your colors on the new place. Seriously it’s gorgeous! Congrats! Pa are you the one that asked about on sweatshirt?
tifflery
@stargirl75 oh wow, really?? Have you been there before? Oh man, I'll come work at the doggy rescue!!!! We can build again... hahahaha. Yup, that was me! Thank you so much for helping me! It took me a bit to realize that you were just a looker too and it wasn't your sweatshirt. Lololololol :)
stargirl75
@tifflery haha yes I’ve been there a few times and it’s so peaceful on ambergris cage. Love it there. Huge Pearl Jam fan here. I have the sweatshirt myself and was looking at it for my boyfriend who didn’t want it. So answered your question! You going to any shows? We are going to Cali, then Oregon, and driving to Seattle for shows from there! From Florida!Can’t wait! Our second date was a pj show almost 3 years ago. It’s our connector that brought us together ❤️
tifflery
@stargirl75 oh wow. Man, I wish we could go to just one. :/ Unfortunately (but fortunately at the same time since we are able to do this...) all extra money that isn't feeding us or paying for something important like insurance or puppy stuff or doctors etc. Has to go to the house. You are gonna have a blast!!!!! That sounds amazing.
wayfaringcloset
Amazing job! This is fantastic. What a happy little place to get to live!
tifflery

Truly stunning home! Doing it the old fashioned way, a little at a time will save you thousands over the years without interest charged by a bank. This is a beautiful home. You should make a page on houzz.
tifflery
@audiecockings thank you so much!!! I'd like to say I'm doing it this way because I'm smart and money savy... lol, but really it's kind if the only option. :) but, you do what you can with what you have and it will all work out in the end! Houzz is awesome! I browse there for hours!!!! :)
sweetladylibra
Wow! That is wonderful. Wish you all the luck that all goes well, so you can finish it.
tifflery
@sweetladylibra oh thank you!!! We could always definitely use some good luck!!! :) Have a great one! :)
rodangelina
Love it. So cute and must be such an awesome feeling to make your own home ☺️
tifflery
@rodangelina thank you!! Well, I think it will feel more awesome once it's finished. :/ right now I'm wishing we had just bought a trailer or something. It's just taking so long since we don't make much money and we are doing it all with cash. I know it will be worth it, but *sigh*..... :) Thank you, though!!! I know we'll finish it one day!!! :)

I manage construction projects for a living. Damn girl, I am impressed! Such a great job, and it must be so rewarding. Love that you all are doing this.
tifflery
@aallisonr lol. Well thank you!! ( but you would have fired us a long time ago for taking sooooo loooonnnggg......) lololol!!!!
ninoposh
@tifflery This is awesome!
tifflery
@ninoposh lol. Aw, thank you, bud. :) I'm a bit down about it lately tbh....so your comment helped. :) it's hard to stay so positive about one project for so long. (Years now....) thanks for your love! :)
ninoposh
@tifflery I know it’s hard to have perspective when you are in the middle of your own project but this is really great-no matter how long it takes. I think it takes dozens of men several months to build a house? Not sure, but I guaranty when you look back on this time you’re going to be like WOW We did that!
tifflery
@ninoposh thank you so much for your words. I really needed to hear that. :)
terrilynn_03
I absolutely love this!! Great job to you both!! Wonderful memories and best wishes on your future!!
tifflery
@terrilynn_03 Aw, thank you soo much! It's been a long hard ride, and we're still going. Hope to start the plumbing here in the next week or so. Thank you for the good wishes! :)
feather2121

tifflery
@feather2121 Coool!!!! Are you building or remodeling or something like that? !? I wanna see pics!!!! :) Thank you so much for your kind words!!!
feather2121
@tiffleryWe are just remodeling and repairing the outside of our house. We painted most of the outside but still got a ways to go. It's a 2 story house. Still a lot of work. Good luck with building your house. It looks great . Have a great weekend.
tifflery
@feather2121oh man, yeah! Ours is just 1 1/2 story, but jeeeeze it's high up there when you're trying to paint!! That sounds awesome! You have a great weekend too!!!
hamsterjane
Duder! My phone finally just...totally died. Heh. So if I don't answer something that ye might happen to send me...it's uh...because I can't. FARTS.
hamsterjane
Oh, and this house is still badass. Ok.
tifflery
@hamsterjane oh no!!! Well, enjoy your vacation and deal with the phone thing when you get back. I'll miss you, buddy!!! ;)

allison_kelsey
I knew I liked you for some reason! We also have a weenie dog it’s all I’ve had all my life. I love that you’re building your house and I love that it small. That’s gonna be us pretty soon
tifflery
@allison_kelsey no way, really!?!?! Are you gonna build too!!!?? We're still working on it. Oof building a house is hard. And expensive. :/
allison_kelsey
Rick’s parents owned property up in Duchenne Utah and we will be getting the property. It has the trailer home up there and a couple of fifth wheels. That will want to build a house because the fifth wheels and the trailer don’t last very long in the hard winters up there. My husband is a Carpenter I’m not a Carpenter and like you LOL that’s awesome
tifflery
@allison_kelsey coool!!! So you already have all the utilities up there and everything!!! (Plus a place to stay while you're building!!!) Oh man, it's gonna so awesome!I'm excited for you!!
allison_kelsey
Yes. We have all utilities except for water you have to haul water when you’re up there. Which is a pain in the butt in the wintertime because you have to shovel yourself out first
tifflery
@allison_kelsey oh no! So will you be able to tap into an existing line or is there just not much up there in that area? We just had out water meter put in and it was to an existing meter box so it was only about 300, but if we had to get a new meter box and everything it was gonna be 3000. We were very lucky!
allison_kelsey
We could dig a well and it would probably be 5000 bucks but the city has slowly bringing the water out further and further it’s only about 5 miles away now it used to be about 20 miles away
allison_kelsey
@tifflery They had a big oil rush up there and they were expanding everything but then there was changes in the law and they stopped drilling for oil and then everyone left.
tifflery
@allison_kelsey perfect! Hopefully by the time you're ready for water it will be an option! (Although a well seems pretty nice too!) We are going to be on the grid, but are hoping to ween ourselves off little by little. We will have septic and a grey water recycling system (we aren't in city limits by any stretch), Co-op water and electic.
tifflery
@allison_kelseyeventually we'd like to incorporate some wind and solar power...homemade stuff at first. We aren't rich! :) lolol
tifflery
@allison_kelsey well the well might be the option. Still, in the grand scheme of things, it beats hauling water in! Especially in the winter!
allison_kelsey
Love it! There is a bunch of people in Duchenne to live off the grid. Solar energy is getting a lot cheaper as well. We would love to live off the grid. Plenty of elk and deer out there as well
tifflery
