So much work I underestimated it. Currently Petting dry wall on the walls, just looking at what is still not done yet and thinking about all the finishing with filling up the walls, screws, sanding, painting and then the floor has to be Sand and put in snd doors.
Im dead til I make this house livable. The only good thing is I have no rent costs til its done and live at my parents house
My husband and I built our own home as well. It was the hardest thing I have ever done. We picked rocks and poured our own concrete foundations with a shitty harbor freight cement mixer. At times I thought I was going to lose my mind, but we did it. Podcasts saved me. I would set up my work area for the day, pick a pocast and let my mind wander while I put up yet another peice of drywall.
Hang in there. In my darkest moments I had to remind myself that every action was a step forward. Even just running to the hardware store. It is all a step forward. One step at a time, one day at a time. We did it, and you can do it too. I’m rooting for you buddy! It does get better!
