by Texas Homesteader I’m so excited to have been nominated by Salvage Sister & Mister for a Liebster Award. I’ve seen these fun lists before but I’ve never participated – it’s kind of like a blogger’s shout-out to other bloggers, a meet-n-greet of sorts.

by Texas Homesteader ~ We purchased our piece of NE Texas paradise back in 2000. It was in pretty rough shape but I could see its potential and the property itself really spoke to my heart. Once I learned that the crumbling 1880’s barn was part of this property the deal was all but sealed! […]

by Texas Homesteader OK, confession time. I’m shy. Not “Oh I don’t like to stand out” shy – PAINFULLY shy. So shy in fact that it’s hard to be openly friendly to strangers or acquaintances. It’s not that I don’t deeply desire that connection, I’m just too shy to put myself out there. I can […]
