Teeny Tiny House: Bathroom

When we moved in...

Remember the bathroom? Well, its undergone a bit of an overhaul in the past few months. When we first moved into the house we chose the paint color via computer. I know! A terrible idea! What were we thinking? What we wanted was gray, what we ended up with was purple.

Before (2014)

After (2018)

It probably doesn't appear to be much different, but we changed the paint color. Finally. It is now the gray we had always wanted. Matt also installed a new light/exhaust fan over the shower which helps tremendously with moisture (but we still need the dehumidifier too). The light made the biggest difference in my opinion. This room needed two light sources, especially with the absence of a window.


All of the towels and other accouterment were already things I had in the house. It's really nice when you find a box in the garage that you can simply swap out items and everything feels new.

The bathroom is still a work in progress, as is most of the rooms in our house, but it's a step in the right direction.

Teeny Tiny House: Kitchen

It's been awhile since I have posted anything about the house but in our defense, its been a little busy and morose around here. In this photo from November 2016 I see both Trudy's pill container and her oatmeal. How different our life is now without her and Piper.


Anyway, lets not all start crying again. Let's talk about the kitchen. Matt painted the cabinets white about a year and half ago and moved the fridge into a different area, thus creating more counter space. Even with the addition of more countertop, it still didn't feel like enough. The microwave was taking up a tremendous amount of space, so Hubs built a shelf using some wood and pipe and put it where the fridge used to be. I think it fits in rather well in our rustic cabin.


In the lower left corner is the table that Piper had her food and water bowls on. Before that, this was the area where Trudy ate her breakfast and dinner because she needed as much light as possible to see. Change takes time, we haven't moved that table yet and Trudy's oatmeal nose prints are still on the wall. 

Stay tuned for more home improvement projects! Hubs and I have been working hard, both inside and out, to make this tiny house more functional.

Rose City Comic Con 2017

I just realized that I had these photos sitting on my desktop that I still hadn't posted from Rose City Comic Con back in September of 2017. Yoda got famous at this convention! We have another Wizard World Con scheduled next month.

September 8, 9 and 10, 2017

Brent Spiner (Data) from Star Trek: TNG

Katee Sackhoff (Starbuck) from Battlestar Galactica

Didn't realize Yoda had his picture taken until hours after the event when it was splashed all over social media.
