Yeah, we've both got tiny little 800 square foot homes. Mine's on a really
small lot, too. I think we own 8 feet of yard on one side, 6 feet on the
other, 12 feet in the front and about 10 feet in the back. We're almost
right along side the road. It still freaks me out when I see someone
walking by because I think they're traipsing through the yard, but they're
actually in the street. :~)

We have no garage, no driveway, and no basement. No pantry, no linen
closet, and no broom closet; just our bedroom closets. Oh, and we only have
4 windows. BUT, I'm just stating facts. In all honesty, I'm not
complaining. You know what? I *LIKE* my little house. Since I've been
sick, it's not difficult to take care of. I have one carpet to vacuum and
only a wooden floor and a tile floor to sweep and wash. We use our spare
bedroom (we have a 2 bedroom 1 bath house) to hold all of our stuff that
we're not immediately using and we shut the door so we don't have to look at
it. It's *literally* the junkyard in there. LOL. Of course, it's starting
to spill out a bit, though, we do need to weed through all the computer
parts that work and don't work - computers are infiltrating our bedroom and
the living room.
