My posts about my home building are not bragging folks.

It is because I have been asked a lot about my progress in the past months, and I have been asked countless times to share progression pictures. Definitely not bragging or boasting, just sharing with my friends here that have asked me to do so.

Please know I humbly wish all the best that life has to offer you all.

Sincerely,
Willa.

I asked to see more.

@Fungirlmmm Ah, bless you, I have an album of the start to present you could look at (Farm Home and buildings) it you liked. Future noticeable upgrades will be posted.
Your home is looking beautiful. Be only proud, and pay no mind to those who think otherwise.

@OlderSometimesWiser I just added this in case someone thought I was bragging. I just wanted to be clear I have been asked countless times to share. Not everyone has had the blessings I have, and I recognize that.

I haven't seen any of your photos on here for ages. But I remember being impressed when I did. You are very talented building a place like that so don't let a few jealous comments knock you down.

@meggie Thank you. I started it in August 2019 and my son's suicide in October of 2019 threw me off for three years, so post counselling I am driven to complete it.
meggie · F
@WillaKissing and you will and then go on to achieve other things too.

people would complain that you gave them the wrong beer - even if it was free
WillaKissing · 56-60
@Pretzel Very true! Thanks.
HumanEarth · 56-60, F
I am so proud you and what you have accomplished
WillaKissing · 56-60
@HumanEarth Thank you and I you as well.
Eddiesolds · 61-69, M
I dont think its bragging at all. Gosh your house is so worth showing to people. You must be so.proud of yourself . I know i am! So awesome Willa!!
WillaKissing · 56-60
@Eddiesolds Thank you, it has been a heart-breaking enterprise for sure starting it in August of 2019 and then my son committed suicide in October of 2019 throwing my world into a hellish crisis for the next three years until I counselled through it and got back on track with my life and building. So, I would not say proud but driven to complete in the name of my late son.
Eddiesolds · 61-69, M
@WillaKissing Im so sorry to hear this. This is so sad. Im hugging you.
WillaKissing · 56-60
@Eddiesolds Thank you.

I know how hard building a home is and the satisfaction of a good job. I love to see others work. You can tell from the job the passion they have for it. So please keep sharing.
WillaKissing · 56-60
@Livingwell Thank you very much!
I never figured you were bragging, just sharing something you liked.🤷‍♂️
WillaKissing · 56-60
@UnderLockDown Thank you. When I have shared other things, I liked here I have had some nasty and rude comments. So, I was trying to avoid that with these posts.
@WillaKissing The best appreciation and compliment comes from those that can accomplish the same task. The people that say rude things just don't understand what goes into it.
WillaKissing · 56-60
@UnderLockDown Very true and I never thought of it that way before.
ninalanyon · 61-69, T
Some might call it bragging, others might say that you are justifiably proud of what you have achieved. Pay no attention to the former.
WillaKissing · 56-60
@ninalanyon Thank you!

We’re having a home built as well, and just got an e-mail today letting me know that the fixtures for the kitchen and dining room are now ready to be picked up....so I know the feeling, and know that it’s not bragging as much as appreciating the progress (our place is being built new, so we can’t even go into it yet....we based our selections from having seen the model).
WillaKissing · 56-60
@DragonFruit I am doing my build all by myself and got help getting it up and framed in and covered to dry seal it from weather. Every inch of the build has been out of my mind from a log home book combined with Post and beam building knowledge that I have. No blueprints or plans or designer help. A true cold ground up operation out of a log home book picture of a log home half the size of what I am building. The rest has been all my mind and my own hands blood sweat and tears.

I have had Electrician help in the wiring and when I get to the plumbing two areas, I am weak in as well as HVAC.

@WillaKissing Very nice....I’m having my place built in a community on Long Island. The builder is the same guy who built my sister-in-law’s house 30 years ago....brother-in-law gave a great recommendation (and he’s very particular). I applaud you for taking on such a project....I’d stay in my current place before I’d do that.

Your house is a god-damned masterpiece!
WillaKissing · 56-60
@Notsimilarreally Ah thank you Beautiful!
Oster1 · M
@Notsimilarreally Perhaps, God blessed! 🙂
caPnAhab · 26-30, M
I saw it. It looks good.

And if anyone would post their art or workmanship just for the sake of it, that should be reason enough
WillaKissing · 56-60
@caPnAhab Thank you very much. I never was the type to brag or to seek attention from my accomplishments. I just wanted to let everyone know that. Thank you very much as well.
Even if they were bragging, so what??
I love the pics!
WillaKissing · 56-60
@nonsensiclesnail Thank you but seriously just sharing no bragging.. You never know how folks think or take things.
@WillaKissing of course! some people jsut cant handle when someone else has skills/ nice things/ anything different from what they know.
TexChik · F
I know i have asked . Thank you for sharing ! 😉
WillaKissing · 56-60
@TexChik Thank you my sweet lady friend, it took a while to get to the aesthetic progress stage over mechanical again.
TexChik · F
@WillaKissing clearly its not your first rodeo . That is beautiful
Work
WillaKissing · 56-60
@TexChik I have been to one rodeo, (LOL) and this is my first time building anything like this. Truly a challenge and work of love at the same time.
MarineBob · 56-60, M
Love seeing the progress
WillaKissing · 56-60
@MarineBob Thanks Bob, I finally got the ceiling lights all fabricated and up to. Did you see those? I made Light and then a vanity post back-to-back.
MarineBob · 56-60, M
@WillaKissing we're fixing to redo 3 cabins and I plan on doing most of the work myself. Won't be anything fancy just functional
WillaKissing · 56-60
@MarineBob Awesome and good luck. I was not shooting for fancy, just what I fancy look and style wise myself. LOL
