I had reached a point where I was losing my mind working all the time (I took 3 days off in 4 years) and losing people I cared about at record speed (6 deaths in short order). So after spending last Christmas watching my friend of 20+ years die in hospice I had enough. I sold my business and sold off a lot of my possessions and rebuilt my house in Florida to give it to my mother who was recently disabled. Then I moved away from everyone and everything I knew to live in a 100 year old cabin in the middle of a national forest:
This bitch, this bitch right here. I don't even know where to start. The second day I was in the house I was moving appliances and the kitchen floor joists broke and took out all of the plumbing. Leading to living for over two months without running water. I was way more off the grid than I ever anticipated. No showers, no toilets, no clean dishes, etc for months. It was a nightmare. My poor neighbors had to see me showering on the front porch in the rain shortly after I moved in! I found out the entire back of the house was held up by just a few joists because of rotten and split joists. Oh and one just missing, just fucking gone. How the fuck does a floor joist get up and leave!? I re-plumbed the entire house which was a nightmare. Then the well pump failed. Then the line from the well to the house ruptured. Then the roof started leaking furthering the floor problems. Bees! Oh my god the fucking bees. My first month I must have had 4 dozen wasp or yellow jacket stings. At one point the yellow jackets built a nest in the wall on the back of the bathroom and when I sprayed the wall they swarmed into the house. Fun times! Everything broke, seriously everything. I have been through a stove, a washer, a fridge, a furnace, a beautiful Samsung 4k tv that lasted like 3 weeks, computers. This house hates electronics and kills them in no time. I can't figure out if it is the rat's nest of wiring, the constant power surges and outages, or the incredible amount of moisture that rolls down the mountain and sits under the house making everything feel wet. Now the drainage system is completely fucked but I can't really deal with it because:
I can't walk or drive so I am now stuck in this shit hole. I haven't been able to take the trash to the dump in weeks and nothing drains (the house smells like Rosie O'Donnell's taint after a marathon session of hot tubing in Trump's ball sweat) . I can't get to the grocery store to get more groceries and the damn freezer died (everything dies here) and ruined most of the groceries I had. Nothing drains so doing dishes, taking a shit or a shower, or anything that requires water is made even more complicated. There is so much to do and I am stuck in bed or on the couch.
It is still so much more peaceful than my previous life. I am forced to learn how to fix new things constantly, usually in pretty crap conditions. I have no major bills or debt. No one bugs me EVER. At the end of the day I can still sit on the front deck and listen to the creek and relax (it really is the most peaceful place I have ever been). So fuck you house/leg/money/broken shit I am gonna win!
DepressingSandwich
I'm sorry OP but I haven't laughed this much in ages. It sounds horrifying but at the same time like straight out of a dark comedy movie.
croctopus
It's a beautiful place and I wish you the best of luck in restoring it. You'll persevere brother.
SugarSmack
No disrespect, but why move to the middle of nowhere if you'll still have neighbors close enough to see you showering on the front porch?
BigSecksi
I live at the end of an old logging road with two other houses on the road. Unfortunately, my neighbors are giving up moving.
ifyouonlyknew21
@OP this you?
BigSecksi
Essentially yes, though not quite as good looking.
MadameMara
I want to see progress on the money pit. If it's that rough now, the victory shall be inmense. I wish you the best.

Please post repair updates. When you're back on your feet that is.

Every house everywhere is falling apart and things are constantly breaking. Welcome to home ownership.

You have to be really lucky to be this unlucky.
BigSecksi
Yes, yes you do.
aselleus
I feel like it would be cheaper to build a new house on the property or get one of those tiny homes to live in until you get the house fixed
Corgibuttnubs
Glad you found peace. You didn't have the place inspected before buying/moving in tho?
BigSecksi
It was my grandfathers place. He left it to me in his will. He was sick the last 7-8 years so it is in disrepair big time.
Corgibuttnubs
That makes more sense. It being a family place makes it more special too.
52pickup
Stop fixing the shithole, tear it down and build something new that works! Better than just throwing money into a black hole.
XanDunn
Well I'm proud of you. And that is way too much for any one human to put up with. May Ron Swanson come with rapidity to fix your cabin.

uponstrangeshores
@OP I had a house that ate electronics once. It was the power surges. Bad wiring. Had to get a big UPS to protect my computers.
BigSecksi
Yeah the wiring is a nightmare. There are wires just run on the ground under the house twisted together. I have a ups on my main rig.
idarmadi
Invest in a Voltage Stabilizer, then UPS behind the stabilizer. The UPS' battery will last longer since it got cleaner stabilized currents.
yogiminit
not an electrician, but work for a power company. make sure your neutral coming into the house is good. And check your ground.
mindstorm8191
If your electrical system is a rats nest, you should probably replace it - all of it - & make it 100% waterproof while you're at it
LesLesVegetables
Sorry about your knee. I know the feeling all to well.

Unfortunately, I do too. This is not the first time I have destroyed my knee. It will be a long few months but I will be back at it.

That picture is from like 10 years ago. However, you can kinda see the sagging of the porch and the roof starting there.

My dream is to live somewhere like that during summers. I hope that you're still enjoying living there even with all the trouble.

It's not hideous!
BigSecksi
Awww thanks!
justanothermonkeylookin4lub
So ... as a contractor. .. it sounds like I would enjoy it there for about three months ...
tomattow
Is this where I get on line?
BigSecksi
The last contractor I called said "No". The engineer said "I can tell you what it will take for $1000. "
SugarSmack
If its structurally unsound, you'll have to pay that engineer before a contractor will touch it. And, a decent contractor is going to work â‘
SugarSmack
â‘¡ the cost of those plans into their estimate regardless. They're just necessary. You should probably bite the bullet and pay the engineer.
BigSecksi
I did. $35-40K to fix the foundation/walls. Which is a big stopping point.
xenburn
Are the foundations good? You should read up on uninterruptible power supplies. http://ehomerecordingstudio.com/uninterruptible-power-supply
BigSecksi
No the foundation is pretty fubared. I am going to have to reevaluate the plan after I have surgery
xenburn
I saw a support beam sitting on top of stacked rocks once. A couple jacks and temporary supports, a few bags of concrete, good as new.
BigSecksi
Yeah my walls are double layered brick with flagstone over it sitting on mud. There are two pilings under the entire house.

He probably hid that joist somewhere, and spent about 6 months laughing about it. "This'll teach him to live in some Florida suburbs!"

That's awesome. You usually have to be grandfathered in to live in a Natl park at all. Hang in there and it'll be a treasure one day

Gameskyjumper
Sorry to hear that. But right now you really should focus on get to a better living condition. Maybe move to a apartment.
Gameskyjumper
And if you need money, sold it. Maybe someone will build a nice house on it. Then later if you have the money you can buy it back.
EveryonesCousin
Well that makes everything make a lot more sense. My house is that old and half as broken and I still want to quit, good luck!

True story. At the end of the day I own two houses and have most of my health lol.

My "neighbors" rehab classic campers. I have toyed with the idea of taking one of them and putting it in the yard.
hmmmfascinating
I can see that being an option. Do it.
MasterPrime
Do it. Based on what you're describing you need to rebuild. The wiring is definitely the cause of the appliance problems.
BigSecksi
I am sure it is. There are wires run under the house just laying on the ground twisted together.
MasterPrime
Yeah that's definitely not good. Take the time to rebuild. If you work on problems as they come you'll have a money pit situation.
BigSecksi
Yeah it is on the list. The whole house is in shambles though. Exterior walls crumbling, joist broken, foundation is gone, etc etc etc
Zaranthan
I'm no electrician, but I'm pretty sure wires and dirt don't get along. Especially wet dirt.
BigSecksi
Yeah I have a similar opinion
blahblahbushes
I assume you don't mean taking a neighbour to put in your yard, cos I'm pretty sure that's a federal crime or something :P
thesmelge
You just have to sign up as their registered guardian. Dead easy.

No one cares up here. The cops didn't even shrug when I told them I was gonna bury the local druggies in the back 40 if they robed me.
blahblahbushes
At least they'd know where to find them.

Small town living for the win!

I don't think they would bother. The same cops told me if I saw any clowns in the woods to shoot them and they would take care of it.

Also I suggest getting surge protecting stuff i.e. extensions cords - I'm no electrician but I'd wager it would probably save you trouble

With messy power, surge protectors may not cut it. Appliances, sure. But a UPS with good isolation is the key to keeping electronics alive.

Oh I cry anyway. Being a 6'1" man trying to use a tiny toilet in an uber-cramped bathroom without bending my knee is painful at best.
cowboyhat
Is there a tub or a spot you can prop your heel while you sit? Or can you sit sideways? It will make you a lot more comfortable.
BigSecksi
It is a tiny toilet that is tucked in between the wall and vanity with only a couple of inches of clearance. It is terribly awkward.

So theres no way you can get a non-cursed house that's also in a remote location so you can maybe be more comfortable? Best wishes <3
