    My SS Journey

    Thanks guys! Defiantly! Although I'm not sure about making it into a barn. We'll have to see if we need it for anything else first or maybe we'll use it for hay. Just found out that DH won't be able to take leave before he gets out so we will be moving on June 20th. Kind of sucks but it is what...

    Hi! DH is in the Marines. I wish I'd be able to use my cloth diapers as dish cloths but they aren't flat. They are the more modern ones that look like a disposable diaper.
