I have got so
many building plans in my head and on various scrap pieces of paper. Some even on graph paper, like I know what I
am doing. We have had discussions,
debates and decisions. One of those
decisions has been, and this is today, let’s do the many small projects
first. Oh, them’s mighty dangerous
words, sir.
I don’t think
he knows how many small projects there are…or what I consider small and what he
may consider to be small. But, here’s a
few, just to get started: A driveway change, a parking spaces change, a garage,
a shed, new porches with overhangs on both the kitchen side and road side of
the house, finish landscaping around my bridge and railings for the bridge, and
low-voltage landscape lighting.
There is a new
project to my ever growing list. And
here it is:
Now, my good
friend Carolyn might say here “Hey! I’m the gypsy!” and she’s right, but, I don’t
actually want this to GO anywhere. I
just want it in the woods. I want there
to be a desk in there and some opportunity for electricity but I don’t want
there to be a toilet or a kitchen. I don’t
want to LIVE in it, for crying out loud.
I love the idea
of a small cottage in our space. I like
the idea of something whimsical. A fun place
to read, or relax, to dream or to plan ~ a get-away without going away. These
small homes can be built on trailer frames and be road worthy, if that’s what
you are in to, but, that’s not what I am seeking. I hear, but haven’t confirmed, that if built
on a frame like this it doesn’t require a building permit or can be taxed. I am checking that out, believe me.
Don’t be
surprised if you see this, or something similar, along the way. It will take some talking but I have lost the
gazebo argument, and this is round 2.
