I have been enjoying living in the upper valley area of VT/NH. I would happy to settle down here, but I'm open to living in another region if it's feasible.. There's a lot to say here. I'm gonna do this bullet point style.

My personality: emotionally mature, accepting, loyal, good communicator, playful, creative, curious, ADHD, radical, sexy tomboy.

My skills: carpentry, repairs, solar/electrical, gardening, leadership, artist, retired musician. Loves to cook! Worked in "food service" for too many years. Been working in various trades for almost a decade now.

I have SO many interests, passions and hobbies. I spend most of my free time gardening and building/fixing/restoring just about anything and studying/researching building design, preparing to someday build my own home. I also enjoy cooking and baking, sewing, painting, rock hounding, foraging, reading, biking, skateboarding, photography, for starters... I try to spend as little time on computers as possible. I don't own a TV.

My challenges: Financially stable but still working on buying home. I've changed jobs almost annually due to toxic environments, but new job is good so far.
Always managing stress and depression that comes with burning out from toxic jobs and being neurodivergent but I am responsible in managing the ups and downs.
I have a few close friends but we're all so busy. Too much time alone is not healthy for me. I feel most balanced when I'm in a relationship, but I'm not codependent. I have been single more years than I have been in relationships. I'd say my past relationships were fairly healthy. No drama.

My dream: I have many business plans ready to execute depending whatever stars align, when and where. I'm super flexible when it comes to making the most out of whatever circumstances I am working with, compromising to create a happy balance. I would be happy to settle down on half an acre or more, enough space for a garden, and ideally a garage or barn workshop for my tools and creative outlet. I love reptiles. I would love build a greenhouse and a pond for turtles and fish 🥰  Happiness for me is having a supportive partner to come home to and enjoy the fruits of our labor. I will be more than happy to make breakfast, lunch and dinner often 🤗

Ideal partner would be a playful, hard working blue collar fella who's hands are as calloused and dirty as mine, but that's not a requirement 😏 Bonus if you also love to cook!!! Social or introverted is fine, as long as you're emotionally mature and can be social once in a while. NO ALCOHOLICS. It's ok if drugs and alcohol are in the past. I'm no stranger to being close with people in recovery. I drink very little. Never done any drugs. I don't mind occasional THC but not comfortable with heavy daily use. No Jesus freaks. I am spiritual and I support spirituality. I enjoy praying with my mom and I would even like to go to church once in a while but super religious types is not what I'm looking for. LGBTQ Ally! Diversity is where it's at. Haters need not apply.

Well that's enough for now. I hope this message finds its way to my forever best friend. I've lived alone long enough. I would love to SHARE everything I have to offer with a good person who wants to enjoy life with a committed partner. Please include pictures! I did!

Hi Lou. I wish I saw this sooner!
I do carpentry, repair, deep weatherization, solar, various mechanical/electrical and gardening. I have been looking to buy a property for the last couple years so I can stop wasting my hard earned money on rent. I spend most of my free time gardening and endless projects, like various art, or building and repairing anything that can be improved. I can't wait to have a homestead so I can finally have a workshop and do freelance work. I already do a lot on the weekends..

How close at you to the upper valley , or Canaan NH?
If you're in that region, we should meet! Not sure how I can send you a private msg to exchange contacts...

Hi Jason,
Five years later... How did everything pan out?  I moved to the Upper Valley 4 years ago. It could work for me, but I'm still trying to find stability. Happy home, happy job, partner.. Without these things, it's hard not to think about relocating, but I'm also very tired of relocating.. but, tell me how it all has come together for you?

Congrats! I know building solo is not what I want. I find building with a partner to be 10x better. What is your name? I'm Lis. I have lived in FL, CA, NC, now VT. I'm just trying to find a place to lay roots. I've studied PV and greenbuilding for almost 10 years now. I have an endless list of skills and passions. Won't you share a pic?
