I recently purchased a cabin in the mountains.
Many people in my life believe I am running away from the real world.
But I choose to see it as an opportunity to live the life I’ve always wanted to live. The neighborhood is a great place to be, but my body was rejecting the craziness of it all. Things got so bad that I became depressed and was hospitalized for a while. I started thinking about my life while in the hospital, and that’s when I decided I wanted to change it. I did some research and discovered a lovely cabin community about four hours outside of town. There was a cabin for sale, but it needed some work, so I had to commit to doing it myself. That wasn’t going to be an issue because I work remotely. Deck repair was one of the complications with the cabin because the deck was falling apart. The previous owner had replaced the deck decades ago, and it was time to repair it or replace it. Next, the windows in the cabin weren’t winter-ready, but you need excellent insulation to survive winter in this part of the world, so I had to look for a window replacement supplier in the area. Someone I was getting to know pointed me in the right direction for window substitution. I had to ensure that the supplier could complete all of the windows before winter, as well as ensure maximum insulation. Because the windows were more urgent, I decided to postpone deck repair until the spring.
