But she dreamed of more:
A quiet life.
A place of her own.
A chance to heal.
Her journey toward independence started in an old school bus, where she lived simply and began to rebuild her life.
As her little family grew — including rescued cats and dogs — she realized she needed more space.
That’s when kind strangers stepped in.
They offered her an old, abandoned trailer — weathered, worn, and far from pretty.
But to Mama Vee?
It was a gift.
🛠️ How She Transformed the Trailer Into a Cozy Forest Home
With no construction experience, but plenty of heart, Mama Vee got to work.
She didn’t have a budget.
She didn’t have power tools.
But she had determination, creativity, and love.
Step by Step, She Created:

🌲 Good People Gave a Homeless Woman an Old Trailer — She Turned It Into a Cozy Forest Haven
Insulation from recycled materials to stay warm in winter
A wood stove for heat and cooking
A tiny kitchen with a camp sink and portable burner
A cozy sleeping nook with handmade curtains and quilts
A reading corner by the window, filled with books and plants
A wrap-around porch made from salvaged wood — perfect for morning coffee
She painted the walls soft white, added fairy lights, and filled the space with handmade touches that made it feel like home.
And she did it all on her own — one day at a time.
