Ready for What?

I am going to track the next three years of my life as a digital diary. Right now we, my husband, youngest son, and I are living in the shop we built ourselves. We are waiting for our house 70 miles away to sell so we can build on this land we bought 6/7 years ago. We are starting our second year in the shop while we wait for the housing market to pick up. I am being quite patient, I believe, because I have a really cool house plan ready to put into action as soon as the house sells. I am going to blog this waiting period, the building experience, and the last three years of my youngest child living at home. As of right now, I am dreading the empty nest. I love being a mom and it has been so much fun raising D. I will truly miss him when he leaves for college. My husband travels so that will put me by myself (well, with the four dogs, one cat, and a horse) when that time comes. My kids are scattered. One lives in California and one in the south (this in my wanderer so no telling where it will be next year). I am not putting any names as of yet just because I am not comfortable doing so right now. This may change. This is my initial post telling why I am here.
