    What a fabulous dream and ambition, I think I could go for the farming life myself but OH is definitely a town guy! 
    We also self educated our daughter (she decided she wanted to return to school after 18months) it’s so much more fun and the 1-on-1 means the learn a whole lot more and at a quicker pace. The main reason we liked it, was so we could teach her life skills that aren’t (but should be) taught in school like cooking/finances etc.
    Anyway, I look forward to reading more on your progress, and good luck on your journey :) 
    What’s meant for you will not pass you 😃

  • What a lovely ambition to have. I could imagine myself on a small holding with a few sheep & goats roaming about. I’ve only had cats, dogs & chickens so far but it must be nice to be more self sufficient.
    We also have the same guilty pleasure, I love watching a bit of Judge Judy whilst eBaying 🤣
