We were running low on firewood so we made a trip to the mountains on Friday. Now we have a full cache and it's time to go to work...for my kids haha. (Yes, they split all of it so they can sell it locally as firewood) 😁 How's your weekend been so far?

What's Something You Do Often You Thought Everyone Does? I'll go first... Budgeting each month and planning your month...financially. I didn't use to do this but ever since I started doing it, it's changed my life. - I'm not stressed as much. - There are less "shocker" moments when an unexpected expense pops up. - That big bill is planned for. - When you swipe your credit or debit card, you know you're going to be able to actually pay for it. What about you? We'd love to hear something you do often!

For the longest time, wood fences have been built using wood posts. - Redwood Posts - Pressure Treated Posts - Cedar Posts But they all have one MAJOR flaw: they will rot and will break or fall down over time! No matter what you coat the wood post with to try and prevent it from rotting, it will always rot because it's a natural product. Check out a really cool alternative if you still want the look of wood but want more durability: The Metal T-Post. (There is also a brand called Postmaster+). We'll have a video coming out in the future showing exactly how we replaced a rotted wood post with one of these Metal T-Posts on a cedar fence and how it turned out. (The original cedar post we removed was only 3-5 years old!) See for yourself in the video below how an untreated post rotted in our backyard after only 3 years!

This may be the upgrade you've been searching for! We did this a few years ago and it's been awesome and well worth it! Check out our video below:

You started a DIY project because you thought "Oh I can Totally do that by myself". Next thing you know, your neck deep into it, you've been to the hardware store three times, and you don't see an end in sight. But you tackle one problem at a time until you fix it. Then comes the Dopamine Rush! The surge of Energy knowing you just fixed it, saved money, and learned a new skill. Sure you had to buy a new tool. Sure you spent more time on it than you thought. But you overcame little problems one at a time and now you feel confident to tackle the next project. That's how most of our DIY projects go...especially this one. We hope you have an awesome rest of your week!
