Tired of the hustle and bustle of city life, she made a bold decision: she left her urban existence behind and moved into an old mini school bus, with ambitious plans to build a new, sustainable cabin for herself in the secluded woods.
A Growing Family in a Small Space
Mama V wasn’t alone; she had multiple cats and two dogs to think about.
As her furry family grew, she soon found that her bus was becoming a bit cramped.
She knew she needed more space, but wasn’t sure where to turn or what she could afford.
A Neighbor’s Generosity Changes Everything
That’s when a kind-hearted neighbor stepped in with an incredible offer: an old camping trailer that had been sitting unused in his yard for years.
Instead of selling or scrapping it, he offered it to Mama V, who was overjoyed and quickly accepted this generous gift.
Saying Goodbye to the Bus
“She’s ugly, but she’s mine!” Mama V exclaimed, affectionately referring to her new trailer.
She sold her bus, eager to start her new chapter in the trailer.
However, the trailer, having been unused for so long, was in need of significant tender loving care.
A Team Effort to Revive the Trailer
Despite the trailer being structurally sound and leak-free, it required a deep clean and some renovations.
Mama V enlisted the help of her friends, Jayme and Kevin.
Kevin skillfully hitched the trailer to his truck and positioned it perfectly on its plot, while Jayme took charge of the cleaning, asking for space to work her magic.
Settling In and Stocking Up
While Jayme cleaned, Mama V and Kevin went into town to purchase food and supplies.
The trailer, to Mama V’s delight, came with a fridge, oven/stove combo, and even a microwave in excellent condition.
They stocked up on essentials, preparing for Mama V to truly start her new life.
A Fresh Start and a Clean Slate
Jayme’s cleaning was nothing short of miraculous—she believes she vacuumed up at least 1,000 dead wasps and scrubbed every surface until it shined.
After their hard work, she and Kevin bid Mama V farewell, leaving her to settle into her new, temporary home.
A Comfortable Space and Future Plans
Finally alone, Mama V explored her new space in detail.
The trailer featured two full propane tanks, a panel that monitored utility usage, a pullout couch, full kitchen, two twin beds, a bathroom with a full tub and shower, and ample storage space.
Though it isn’t her forever home, Mama V and her pets are thrilled to have a spacious and comfortable place to lay their heads.
As she settles in, Mama V is already dreaming of the garden she plans to plant and the simple, peaceful life she aims to cultivate.
A New Chapter for Mama V
With her new trailer and the surrounding woods as her canvas, Mama V is excited for this new chapter in her life.
She is grateful for her friends, her pets, and the generosity of a neighbor that set her on this path.
As she falls asleep in her new home, she is filled with hope for the future and gratitude for her present.
