A funny thing happened on the way to the bar…
We were homesteaders before it was cool. In 2016, I was a remote worker and the Husband got a job teaching in a small town near where I grew up. We bought a few acres outside of a town smaller than either of our high schools, and several jobs (for both of us), a pandemic, a ridiculously broken leg/ankle, and a crash course in goat midwifery later, we are still here. I’m like a trad wife, but with agency.
