Resolution #199: Design And Draw My Fantasy Tiny House, Both Inside and Out.

Resolution: A couple of years ago I discovered the documentary We the Tiny House People. I've obsessed over the idea of living in one of these humble abodes ever since. I currently live in a tiny apartment and feel it's all the space I need. Hell, I don't even use the bedroom.

I think my fascination started when I was in middle school. I took over the family garage as my bedroom. I had a paper route at the time so I could afford to turn it into my own studio apartment of sorts.

I guess I must be trying to recapture this tiny sanctuary because I've gone on to live in garages multiple times in my life. Either that or roommate situations where I had everything I needed in a tiny bedroom within a big house. Granted I partied in the shared spaces, but I could have easily gotten by living in my room.

Then I lived in a two-bedroom place all by myself. Though I loved the living situation I never figured out what to do with all the space.

At first, I set up the whole place; a living room, bedroom, and office. I found myself living in the office and neglecting the rest of the space. I eventually moved the office into the living room to recreate that studio feel. The rest of the place did nothing but collected laundry and garbage.

It turns out, I desire tiny simple places and now that I'm learning to draw I think it's time to depict my perfect home on paper.

Result #199: I COULD Rush And Slap Something Together To Consider This A Success… But… I Want To Do It Right… So… It’ll Have To Wait Until I Get My Life Back In Order…

 

Update #1: The Conclusion…

Date: 7-18-2015

I've dropped the ball once again and I don't even have a real good excuse for this one.

Don't get me wrong, I do have an excuse, it's just not a good one.

I've been working purely freelance ever since quitting my last job. Right now I only make enough to get by. I can't afford to do any of the resolutions that cost more than $20.00 and even that depends on when the given resolution is approaching.

Since I've been failing so many resolutions due to finances, I've been a bit discouraged and sort of fear looking ahead, not wanting to see the queue of impending failures.

As I've said in the past, I'm going to continue to do what I can and transfer all the failures over to a bucket list that I'll report on.

As always, I'll keep you posted on how it turns out.
