    Stay strong. I'm a 57 year old grandmother, and will fully testify that freedom is the only thing that matters after caring for children. Once you have it, you see life, the world differently-- peace, no matter the cost-- is heaven on earth. I've lived off grid, in CO-- no electricity, no running water. You find a way to make it work. Never settle, never compromise peace. Hugs!!!

      Thank you so much! You’re such an inspiration. Thank you for chiming in!! Yes, we must indeed value and protect our peace. Without that, we cannot begin to build anything good. 🙌🏾👽🏕️

    Great build out! I recommend that you get your rear doors, rear windows & tailgate windows tinted with limousine tint. That’ll help keep the prying eyes in the gym & store parking lots from seeing your stuff. There’s a lot for them to see. Especially, your Air Jordan collection!

    • @dirtmartians3534
      @dirtmartians3534  4 месяца назад +1

      Good recommendation! I currently have my windows super dark, but I wanted to still be able to see out of the rear. I decided to just blackout my rear window cover. It’s been great!! Thanks for hangin, homie!!

  • @sonnywilliams684
    @sonnywilliams684 6 месяцев назад +1

    Dont forget to get you some refectics window shades. Weathertech, a lil pricy but worth it, have them for all your windows, ready for use. Also, they will help you with insulation along with your privacy.

      I plan to stay warm with a couple things, like a good low-temp sleeping bag, space heater, heated blanket, and insulated window covers. I plan to do a video that goes over how I stay warm, so stay tuned! 😃😃
      At my elevation, staying cool will be pretty easy. I really only need good ventilation and a fan. 😎 fortunately, the nights stay pretty cool.
