SIZE QUEEN

When I was little and later in grade school, I was a size queen. Everything had to be bigger and better. Especially when it came to two things, homes and man meat!!! I was always drawn to larger homes and mansions, and I thought, one day, I'm going to have a huge, larger home or mansion, or marry very well. Over the years, with many family members and friends, I have listened and learned to what they say and can at times see their true feelings on living in large homes. As I got older and grew up, my stance changed. Now currently I have no desire to own a home, let alone a larger one.  While on vacation several years ago in the Catskills, we visited a friend who had one of those small houses, and I saw first-hand for the first time what they looked like and was quite shocked by the style. I might reconsider owning a home now. Like other types of design and technology, the design and planning, the longer they are around, are getting fine-tuned and very smartly planned and filled with amenities. My friend loves his small house, the downing sizing of "stuff" and the feeling you can up and go much faster.  Some people decide to start living small once they find there are many advantages to downsizing. A smaller home means smaller bills and a smaller set of responsibilities. That's great for me. I refuse to be a slave for a home. I also feel as I got toward middle age, I am definitely becoming more of a minimalist.

Some people decide to start living small once they find that there are many advantages to downsizing. A smaller home means smaller bills and a smaller set of responsibilities. People buy larger homes for a number of reasons. They outgrow their smaller home, receive a promotion at work, are convinced by a realtor that they can afford it, or to simply show off and impress others. The mantra of the culture again comes calling, "buy as much and as big as possible." They believe the lie and choose to buy a large home only because that's what you are supposed to do these days. I 'll never understand it. Since being back at the ancestral home, we have two floors. Four bedrooms, two baths and a half, and a finished basement with a family room, mud room, laundry room, and a games room with pool table. Our place is by no means giant, but we still don't use half the house. And the dining room gets used if lucky, 8 times a year or less. Many people I know with huge homes or estates, or have seen in videos, admit to never using half the house. Then why waste the money??? Then, when they do have a huge house, a lot of it sits empty because then they can't afford to have the house styled properly. To me, especially since apartment living, I'd rather have a small, charming space, and decorate it the way I want, filled with things I love. So, if I ever were to own a home, I am seriously considering a small house. The one featured today, is SOOOO me. Especially that kitchen and bath.

 Some advantages to small home living. Smaller homes are easier to maintain, you spend less time decluttering, smaller homes are less expensive in taxes, heating and cooling.  Living small means, you go into less debt. It's mentally freeing. Smaller homes have a smaller environmental impact of the environment, and you just might be able to have a home in any location, where you might not be able to normally afford a larger home. You free up more time to do other things, with less house and less land. Smaller home also lessen the temptation to accumulate more. Smaller home are in a wider market to sell. By its very definition, a smaller more affordable house is affordable to a larger percentage of the population, then a more expensive one.

I have seriously thought of getting a small house and place it in the Pocono Mountains and use it as a summer house and get the feel of it, see how it goes and feels. If all goes well, then I could move in permanently. Or have the whole house relocated to a beach locale. Either way I love these smaller homes. Luckily for this size queen, my love for large cock never wavered though.
