Shadow, will you still have an income when you move to your land? I think that's the next thing to consider. When that is taken care of, you'll want to figure out your waste disposal -- are you going to have a composting toilet, a regular flush toilet with a septic tank, a sawdust bucket toilet with a compost pile? Graywater disposal? Showers? Laundry? Okay, when you have those all figured out, then you are ready to get the yurt set up and move in! Then, a little bit at a time, you can figure out how you want to use your land, build outbuildings, start gardens and orchards, fence for animals, and so on. Just make a list in chronological order of what needs to be done, and methodically do one thing at a time and get it done before you go on to the next thing (for the most part; there might be an occasional exception). DO NOT jump into owning every kind of animal under the sun. Do ONE THING AT A TIME!! (I'm shouting on purpose here! Getting too many animals too soon is one of the biggest mistakes many people make, and I'm sure half the folks here could tell you about the dangers of moving on to another project before you finish the one you are working on. You can move mountains, if you just do it a little bit at a time, and don't try to take on too much at a time.
