FibroHiker Divorce/Relocation/Kiddo Care/Debt Settlement Funding!
Wow, that's a mouthful.
Yes, darlings, my husband of 13 years and I have decided on an amicable divorce. So here's a little rumor control and a few ways for you to help, if you feel so inclined.
We know that not everyone is in the position to donate, or to bid on the auction items, but we still want you to feel included as we celebrate the past and cheer forward our future. As always, you can help me in my goal of being a full-time digital nomad every time you like, share, and comment on my blog posts. The more money I can make this way, the easier it will be for The Wild Scamp, aka my 5yo kiddo, to spend at least half of each year with me, homeschooling and forest-schooling our way around the country and around the world.
Even an amicable, uncontested divorce with joint custody and the parents staying friends is, well, a PAIN. The kiddo and I need new passports, I would like to get a tiny little teardrop trailer home, I need a new laptop so I can do the "digital" part of being a "digital nomad," and in the meantime, the beloved ex and I both have credit card debt, objects to relocate, fees and fix-er-ups to manage, and all that boring grown-up stuff.
The beloved ex, known as @Malthol on most of your favorite social media (medias? mediums? malapropisms?), is staying in Texas and fixing up the house so that 1) it stays standing and 2) it's ready to sell if/when selling becomes a good idea. Malthol is good at staying in one place. I, your friend FibroHiker, am not. As you can imagine, many of our reasons for considering divorce come down to some simple differences of this kind. We're still best friends, and we have some fun and cool ideas about how to co-parent across long distances, which I think my nerds in the audience will heartily approve. These include, but are not limited to, regular vidchats with distant family members, and soon, our own Minecraft server and family date nights! The family that slays together stays together!
Since there's a kiddo in the mix, I'd like to take a moment and tug gently on your heartstrings. Anything that makes our finances better will directly improve The Wild Scamp's quality of life. We have a few ways to do that. There will be online auction items, or you can donate directly by clicking or scanning the image below:

As always, there's no need to spend money you don't have (please don't go into debt to get us out of debt. Nope nope.) We appreciate your kind words, your likes, your comments, and your sharing this to your own audiences. Also, the Wednesday night event will be livestreamed, and the auction will have an online component. I will share auction items on my various media.
There are also stretch goals that involve explosives. Yes, literal explosives. Yes, I have pyrotechnical experience and also, yes, there will be at least one active or retired firefighter on premises whenever I light stuff on fire. I'm nuts, kids, not stupid. Safety first. First we make sure we're very, very safe, and THEN we let loose maniacal laughter as we explode things and watch them burn. If you're VERRRRRRY good, I'll even make the fire burn pretty colors for you.
I love you all. Stay safe, stay awesome. Wear detachable bear bells so that if a mountain lion thinks you're a cat toy, you can throw the bell and hope the critter is smart enough to chase it, but too dense to try to teach you to play "fetch."
