Description
We moved to the country chasing the dream: land, peace, maybe a few chickens… and possibly a holy, wholesome life.
What we got instead? Heat exhaustion, ER visits, falling off ladders, tractor accidents, lawsuits, dead chickens, and a strong suspicion that the property itself is cursed.
In this episode of Diary of a Crappy Catholic, I share what really happens when a suburban guy tries to become a homesteader in the Carolina heat… while juggling family struggles, unexpected chaos, and the slow realization that maybe—just maybe—this wasn’t my spiritual calling.
Turns out, the “simple life” isn’t simple. It’s just… louder.
