Anyone else going through this? My Dh wanted to move up here becuase we both wanted lots of land and to live in the country. But, other than that he just isn't interested in living the homestead life. I wanted an older farm with little mortgage. Something we could fix up as we go, we ended up buying a house with a pretty high mortgage. Granted, I absolutely LOVE my house, but hate writing that bank check. I would LOVE to live off the grid, and be debt free. He wants to buy new "toys".
I want to raise as much of our food as I can. Not only for cost but also because its so much healthier. He thinks its a waste of time; " why grow it, when you can go to wal-mart and get it off the shelve"? I bought 24 chickens, he thinks they are a waste of time.....<sigh>
Can anyone else relate? I am hoping in time he will "get" it, but I am not holding my breath
