    Keep your chin up. Stay positive. You’ve got a game plan. Downsizing when you need to is important. Hang in there and don’t be afraid to reach out to your family if need be. I’ve enjoyed your videos over the years. Especially the camp videos.

You didn't have to explain everything, you are one of the strongest ladies I have seen here on UA-cam & no matter the future will hold you and the family will grow from strenght to strength.
    Just keep yourselves strong and you will all be strong ❤. Reguarding the house, if you don't see it as your home then its not what you need & out there is a house that you will walk into and you will know that is your forever home. As so many people have mentioned we are all proud of you and the kids, and hopefully maybe the right place and the right time will bring new options 😉.

    Im sorry that this has been a rough year. Relationships can be tough but if it is unhealthy (and kids are involved) you definitely made the right decision for you and your family. You are a very resourceful,resilient woman,I’m sure you will thrive. Good idea downsizing the animals that are not the best fit for right now. I know adding animals is probably not the best at the moment. However,perhaps a livestock guardian dog or two would be a good idea in light of your coyote situation. Shooting them works too but inevitably more will move into the area. There are a few lgd rescues in Ontario where you can find already trained adults. Best of luck with your renovations,that will be exciting for sure. Selling and finding a smaller house that is more suitable is not a bad idea. You have done so much to improve this home and property it was a good investment regardless if you stay or not. Maybe you would like to join the women in homesteading group. I will sent you a dm on IG or fb and give you the info.
