Cyber Monday and other things.

I don't get it. Cyber Monday is supposed to be all about buying online but I think with Brown Thursday added in - it just might get washed under the bridge. I personally have not bought a single thing online but it's really not my thing.

A lot of things have changed with our little home. I'm not looking forward to the cold weather eventhough we don't have much space to heat - a measly 336 square feet. I have found lots of websites of other couples who have downsized. We have downsized for economic reasons. It's cheaper living and less house work(haha). I hated having to try to clean a big 5 bedroom house. It's so much easier now.   

If you haven't seen the picture of our home then you aren't missing much. I would just like to say that if there is one pitfall that small living has is the loud tv. My husband loves to have the tv on loud, as loud as it will go, and our 50 inch can get quite loud which can make it hard to concentrate or talk to someone on the phone.

After settling in, one of the first and best things we got accomplished was these step's put in for front door. We had bought these online through Facebook for $65.00. They came with the non-skid carpet already attached. It was one of the best buys my husband has gotten so far. It took 4 men to load it onto a trailer and 4 men to take it off but only 1 to move it into place. Thanks to our neighbor across the road who used his small tractor and did it in a matter of about an hour. 
As you can see in this (below)picture we have a new weenie dog, actually we have 3 of them. This one is Elvis chowing down on some food in their food bowl.
 Our black and brown dachshound, Lulu even likes the steps.
As we make more changes, I will post more 
pictures of our new abode.
