We went to Wildbranch yesterday to see if anything had been done last week and since it rained every day except Friday, I was pretty sure nothing would be different. However, I discovered that the electric company had installed a meter and I also found water in my basement--ya, ya, yuck, yuck, yuck. I don't have a roof, or a floor or anything so of course I have water in my basement. It's only a pseudo-basement.
At an age when I am old enough to know better, I moved beyond the raised beds of my suburban garden. In October of 2010 I acquired 15 acres of undeveloped land in Southern Indiana. Join me on this journey as I turn my land into a place of rest, retreat and refuge--a place to grow new things--a place called Wildbranch.

water in my basement
We went to Wildbranch yesterday to see if anything had been done last week and since it rained every day except Friday, I was pretty sure nothing would be different. However, I discovered that the electric company had installed a meter and I also found water in my basement--ya, ya, yuck, yuck, yuck. I don't have a roof, or a floor or anything so of course I have water in my basement. It's only a pseudo-basement.
I remain hopeful that after the predicted three more additional inches of rain expected during the next three days, I will begin to see some big changes happening out at the Branch. Contingency Hope Plan is that I will see all this before I turn 60 (which isn't that far off)! Back-up Hope Plan b is that I will see a completed house before I leave this planet. With that said, given all the heartache caused by tornadoes this past week, I am very grateful I have a non-leaking roof over my head. Patience is a hard thing to learn. I need lots more practice learning it I guess.

Happy to see that sweet normal Lucy and sweet circus perfomer Spike were able to visit Wildbranch today, haha. And yes, I guess water in your basement should be expected at this stage, lol. I, like you, am feeling very blessed to have avoided all the horrific weather events that have been plaguing our country recently. I am confident that you will have a fully completed home by the time you reach 60!
