my place is too small

I feel that way with my place because I have so much stuff and not enough room for it all. When you have a small place, you have to scale down on the stuff, sadly.

yup left behind a whole house full of furniture well we gave it away. as we were moving 1800 miles and had no wehre to carry it and no way to pay for a truck to move it. Worsed place we paid $50 a month for we were th only people in town and eh store owner. the place was right behind the store. had no hot water. No heat we had a kerosene heater. no loft or ceiling in the kitchen no stove to cook on we had a camp stove and no fridge we used a cooler had to get ice every day go grocery shopping every 3 days. It was teh only place we could fine for the job he was on and was still 30 miles from the job sight. We stayed ther for 5 months till we finally found a trailer in a trai;ler park closer to work sight.

I don't have a kitchen table either. There is no room for one. The kitchen is a galley type kitchen, and getting any kind of table or chair in there is laughable. But I'm thrilled that it is a clean, semi-modern place. The carpet is awful - I wish the people before me had not stained it so massively. But I got a lot of rugs to try to cover it all.

I've moved around a bit, and I can't say I've ever moved my furniture with me except for ofcourse when it was with family. However, I do remember moving my dresser and lingerie chest and bed once. The last time I moved I had a clothes basket and laundry basket full of clothes, and some of my belongings. The rest I left at my grandmother's who took it to the shed at my mother's eventually. Actually I lied, I did move with my husband for a few months to a family member's house but we didn't have to move any furniture because there was furniture there for us to use. The next time we move we will be moving a whole lot of furniture because we were given furniture by family members, we're also going to get a couch and love seat at a great deal from friends. In any case, since these items are sentimental to us, if we can help it we won't leave any behind when and if we do move out of wherever we end up moving to, if that makes sense. Glad you got moved okay but I hate that you had to get rid of some things, and moved into smaller rooms. I think the kitchen should always be one of the biggest rooms, even if the den / living room or great room isn't that big. The bedrooms should be a good size too but I know older houses weren't always that big because there just wasn't a need for all the space.

Why not have a small house, provided it's all neat will definitely feelcomfortable. But most important is the need off the child. lest he complain because we are wrong from them to arrange the room. hopefully useful

Well, I moved to a very small place. I studio type flat for one person only. There's no room. It's too small. No dividers, it's just the plain flat. When you open the door, you will be the sink in front of you, then the door going to the small kitchen and laundry area, at the right of the small kitchen is the bathroom, at your right, you will see my closet at the far end and my bed. Simple as that. It's so small but it's fine. I left my coach with my parents because it will not fit the space or it will eat all the space of my flat.

Oh lord, the worst house I have lived in since I married is our first house we rented after we were married..the ceiling was falling in,their wasn't a level floor in the whole house. It was a old timer box house and didn't have insulation even. It was only 3 rooms kitchen,loving room, and bed with a non-working bathroom..didn't have running water..only a well that we had to draw water out of the well in buckets..the kitchen floor sagged so bad we had concrete blocks under the front of stoves and fridge and the cabinets and sink top.. I ended up living there over a year..before we saved enough to move..but it was a small house and the funny thing about it was it was the same house my husband had been born in. Only thing it had going for it I loved the quietness of where it was..it was up a holler and the last house..so when it rained we would take rain showers outside..while one watched out in case anyone decided to come for a visit which was rare..now I don't know how many hunters I may have mooned or given a view to..but I never seen any..but it is one thing my husband teased me about..lol.

When my first hubby was in the Navy, he went overseas. I let college students rent our apartment for the summer and left furniture for them. They were supposed to store it with this one guy, but did not. We looked all over San Diego, but never got it all back. I certainly would do differently if I had it to do over again. I move as seldom as possible.

I was blessed that I started fresh when I moved into this tiny place. However, I know what you mean, because when Walker found us a place in Arizona, he got some nice furnature, that we had to leave behind, because when he finished up his job down there and moved up here, he could not afford to have it shipped, nor would we have room for it.
