About to find out if I could ever live in a tiny house.

[Olioxenfree]

Because of some unexpected needed work on the house, we're renting a one bed, one bath section of a duplex near the kid's school, since it won't be safe to stay in the house while the work is being done. With five kids, a cat, and a dog, it's going to be close quarters, but it's only for a month and it's what we can afford without going into savings. My husband, the youngest baby, and I will be in the bedroom and the other four kids will be in the living room (which is bigger than the bedroom). Luckily I'm on maternity leave so I don't have to move my work stuff here. If anyone wants to live in a tiny house, I'll tell you how it is.

Good luck.

We want a tiny house when our kids are grown.

That duplex will be bigger than any tiny house. Most tiny houses are around 150 sq ft or less. But with 5 kids plus a cat and a dog it will feel smaller, lol. I don't think I would be able to last a month. How did you get the landlord to agree to just one month's rent?

Good luck. Lol. We got a room on Amtrak (myself, dh and 3 Kids) from Michigan to California and after The 3 days, we were ready to throw one another off

And you have a newborn? I would be homicidal....

My house is 960 sq feet. I'm never going smaller than this. Usually its people who have huge homes I hear talk about going tiny.

I can’t decide if this sounds like a fun adventure or a nightmare.

Either way, good luck.

Better you than me. I would be admitted to the nearest psych ward within 24 hours

I’ve got 5 in a 1400 sq ft house. I’d go crazy in anything smaller
