We had a dream
We have been thinking about ways to live simpler and more efficiently. We've been researching many different ways to be greener and well, cheaper. We live in a 1900 sq ft home right now and we use hardly any of that space. Most of us are in separate rooms for the better part of the day/evening. The best times we've had (and most relaxing) have been camping in our truck camper. The only complaint from the kids was the lack of sleeping space for both of them. Our oldest son living with us is 13 and youngest daughter is 10. We decided to start downsizing the amount of material possessions we had. We gave some to our oldest daughter when she moved into her first apartment, had yard sales, went to flea markets and gave stuff away to local thrift stores. We still have way too much stuff but baby steps here... We don't want to be in shock so we are slowing dwindling down and getting used to the idea of living with very little. When Clint first showed me a 'tiny house' I was totally not on board. I thought, 'you've got to be kidding me'. Then the more research he did on tiny houses and the more he narrowed down choices and presented them to me, I got hooked.

Ok, now I can try this again!
ReplyDeleteI agree 100% with what you're saying. And I'm so excited to downsize again. It's just a waiting game and I'm having trouble being patient lol.
Have you picked yet which design you're going to build?
