My own house?
I sat in church this evening, and I was struck with an idea so completely bold and out of the blue that I might have to make it happen. I thought that I needed to build my own house. Seriously. My own house.
I currently live in an apartment, and that apartment is only 1 mile away from my job and a block away from the grocery store. The post office is less than 2 blocks from my job, so I could do all the living I'd ever want to do in a 1.5 mile area.
But from time to time I have thought that I'd love a tiny house. My apartment, if it were a free standing house, would be considered a tiny house. Perhaps on the large side of what is considered tiny, but still tiny. I am a sucker for efficient design. I get that, in part, from living in Finland and the spaces I had there.
Unlike other times I have thought of it, though, I actually had a vision of what that house could be. It was rather detailed. After church I started asking my mom about her gas stove. She knows something's up with me, but I'm not ready to tell her yet.
Still, I could build my own house. My *own* house. The thought is makes me positive giddy.
