Question:
Was the cabin a necessity or something that you had to do to feel you "had to do" to feel normal again?
Not a barb - an honest question.
A Catharsis of sorts?

Yes, I just had to do something with myself but I wasn't fit to be around people. I have no idea why my wife stayed with me. I found out years later that she was terrified the whole time & that still gets to me.
I think the log cabin saved my life. Gave me something else to focus on.
I love that picture of her. I would love to see her graduation from school compared with thisYes, I just had to do something with myself but I wasn't fit to be around people.

I think she was really happy is how I read this. But you know finishing school was 'happy'.

A couple years after that picture (and after I came back to being civilized) we moved to Seattle & she went to 4 years of Nursing school.....so I guess something good came from it. But I would have left me, if I was her.I love that picture of her. I would love to see her graduation from school compared with this

i know what you mean, there are days i wake up and i know it would be a good thing if i didn't have anything to do with people today.
i was married 7 years, and there were days i would have done anything to not have someone in my house....not just her, but anyone.
guess you got lucky and got over it before you broke up, i didn't. i don't actually regret it, but i do wonder what it might have been like if i would have gotten some meds about the time we met

When we moved to Seattle so my wife could attend Nursing school & I was looking for employment I went down to Boeing and there was a sign in the office window "NOT ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS...EXCEPT VETERANS. When the shop manager interviewed me he asked "So what have you been doing since you got back?" & I just showed him the log house pictures. He said "Your hired"....and they don't build log cabins at Boeing...lol
LOL of course they do, they just use sheet metal to make them! ;D Motivation and an agile mind are the keys. They don't seem to understand that today.

Have you ever gone back to see if it's still there?Yes, I just had to do something with myself but I wasn't fit to be around people. I have no idea why my wife stayed with me. I found out years later that she was terrified the whole time & that still gets to me.

I sold it to a neighbor and he gave it to his daughter as a wedding present and about 20 years ago it burned down....
I don't like that it burned, you know. But I appreciate you have the history.I sold it to a neighbor and he gave it to his daughter as a wedding present and about 20 years ago it burned down....

actually the job was in Facilities sheetmetal Dept working on the buildings...HVAC and a lot of roof flashing...it was pretty cool job because on the roof I could smoke a joint. lol
As hub was retiring in the early 90's he made the pilgrimage to Boeing. He went to LEO instead. He prefers etoh, not really surprising eh?

The cabin was so rural that once it caught fire it was over. Nothing to slow it down. By the time the local volunteer fire dept showed up there was nothing left to save.
