  • Tiny House update

    I didn’t get to grab a picture yet but over the weekend I stayed in my tiny house with my wonderful girlfriend Mykle. Her father gave me a window a/c unit when we were in Alabama so I installed it and have been using the box fan for circulating air. However this weekend I finally installed my ceiling fan. It doesn’t sound like a big thing, but I’ve never installed a ceiling fan or even wired on up. I’ve watched people do it but never really did it hands on. So I was excited that I was able to do it myself. I also was pleased that I was able to add a longer downrod on my own and didn’t need to ask for assistance. I was able to install the ceiling and 18 down rod but simply reading the directions and knowing a little bit about wiring electric outlets. I cheated and youtubed how to wire a light switch and it functions as expected.

    To be fully liveable I feel I need to install the final window of my desk in the office and to install the insulation in the walls of my office and add the staircase to the loft. Once that is done I’ll finish the floors put down some paper and move furniture in. I will then start working on my walls.. Deciding if I will do paneling. What I’m considering or If I will do paneling. I’m thinking I may do drywall on my walls but I haven’t decided.

    Any thoughts leave a comment. But share nothing but love. For now Mykle and I are going to keep working on it together.
