Help Me Build a Safe Home on Wheels
Hiya! I'm Alyssa and this is our bus Cumulo☁️ There's also my kid "R" and our cat Abyss.
I bought Cumulo because as of June 1st the apartment lease is up and I simply can't afford to stay. Family doesn't have space and I'll do anything to avoid R and me ending up in a shelter. Though I'm going to be honest here, owning a bus turned RV is a long term dream of mine so I'm pretty excited.
I sold my car to buy it at a deep discount but money is already running thin between a new insurance policy, registration, and a full tank of diesel. Plus a used belted seat that I purchased today for R, who's 9.
Cumulo needs to be livable by Saturday morning(31st), since that's when I need to be out.
Immediate goals:
>Install R's seat
>Install and anchor furniture
>Insulate roof with foam board
>Diesel fuel is a permanent necessity
Future goals:
>Solar electricity
>Air conditioning
>Interior walls
completed goals:
>Get the repairs done and paid
I am trying to work up the nerve to make a TikTok/YouTube to show our progress.
Thanks for reading this far if you did! Thank you for considering my plans to keep us in control of our own journey and not in a shelter!
