Pets are an area that can devastate a budget. My daughter and her husband had to make the decision to euthanize their dog because of a bowl obstruction. Pet insurance can make the difference in being able to provide emergency care. It is devastating to have to make decisions quickly.
Golden retrievers need constant guidance. They can develop some very nasty habits. Golden will eat everything and anything. Stella's first year of life I was forever dragging things out of her mouth. We spray anything we think she will chew with apple bitter spray designed for dogs Goldens when stressed will eat blankets as well. This is a behavior that requires training and training and lots of supervision. Golden retrievers will eat bread dough rising on the counter.
Home repairs should be dealt with quickly. Small repairs can develop into large issues quickly. Once a month, I walk around around our house to look for issues. The wind in Colorado is straight from hell, it strips things. We will be replacing our wood fence on the back 40 with steel and wire panels.
We have our first AIR BNB guest. They are a sweet family from the East Coast.So, far they have been pleased with their stay. They are staying 2 weeks to enjoy skiing in Colorado. It appears to be an easy income generator. I will write more about this after their stay.
I used to be the type of person who drove an automobile until it wasn't drivable. We have been keeping the equity in our automobiles by keeping them no longer than 5 years. We used to have 3 cars. Now, we are done to a large truck and a van.
Furniture is one of those if you have pets or kids, a good steamer and a lint brush will keep things tidy. I have 4 seasonal skipcovers that allow things to be changed up. I repurpose a lot of pieces. One camp table has cycled through all of my children. It has been a desk, a vanity table, and a craft table. It is currently my canning resting station. I use it during my holiday cooking as well. At this moment, it is on the porch of our Air BNB tiny house. Our AIR BNB has been stocked with many of our home things that I held onto for this prupose.
