You sound as if you may live in a rural area so will be short on the assistance and support of city folk so use this site as much and as often as you like. (I am in rural Victoria). Use this site to vent or gain info, there are amazing ladies on here who will be able to help you along the way.
Please feel free to personal message me if you need a friend.
Hoping you have this wonderful Spring weather to cheer you.
