What Unemployment in America should look like…

This is what unemployment should look like in America. Do what you know how to do even if it’s hard, don’t wait for the government to fix things.

Chris lost his big consulting job in April. Many of you know that, it is no big secret. He has had numerous opportunities show up and for one reason or another never work out. We have been married for almost 20 years and he has never NOT been able to find a job in his field. It is a direct result of all the shutdowns because of COVID19, company hiring freezes, travel restrictions, and that is okay because our hope is not in what our country is doing for us, our hope is in God’s plan and what our country allows for us to do for ourselves.

Chris has many talents, not only in banking, systems architecture and security, but in mechanics, woodworking, remodeling, and I can run my mouth and type big long exposés. So here we are working to keep things together, with what we know how to do.

God has this planned out already, whatever it is. I am so thankful for our first real client, a complete stranger, who reached out to buy one of our coops, the day we posted our ad.

This song came on the radio while we were working on staining our the wood for our first coop sale. I was almost in tears when I made this quick video. Overwhelmed with heat and exhaustion, and so very grateful for the freedom we have to make something out of nothing. I still very much love my country and have hope for her future as well as ours. God is in control and to Him all glory will be given.

So in conclusion, I love Jesus, my husband, my kids, America, 80s music, chickens, goats, turkeys and please buy a chicken coop and/or tell your friends. Like our page on FB: Chris’s Chicken Coops and Farm Furniture or follow us on Instagram at Wilson’s Chicken Coops.

I believe in the God of the Bible and that Jesus is His Son who died on the cross at Calvary for the sins of the world. This free gift is for you and for me, if we accept that fact by faith and strive daily to follow His Living Word that is the same today, yesterday, and forever. Also, for the record, I love my boyfriend whom I have been married to for going on 18 years. We have two boys that are both in high school, which is taught at home by yours truly. Cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, goats, turkeys, squirrels, chipmunks, peacocks, song birds, coyotes, raccoons, opossums, all call our yard home and I have a story about all of them. I am originally from Kentucky, with deep roots in Eastern Kentucky's Appalachian Mountains. I grew up in a working class suburb of Lexington, Kentucky. I am married to a quiet feller from Birmingham, Alabama. We met in Tampa, FL, married, had two kids and moved to California. From there we landed in Alabama for a few years and then by the providence of God we moved to our little piece of heaven in Georgia where we live in a white house, on a little hill, in the rocky foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. I have some things I think I might want to write that maybe someone might want to read... mostly stories and experiences of my own and a few I can relay from second hand knowledge but none with great confidence, pride, or true story telling ability, just overthought ramblings that I quickly need to capture before I forget.
