Appliances...Work in progress

When this process started I figured appliances would be no big deal, but then I realized I have never bought an appliance before besides a washer and dryer. So any insight would be appreciated. Here's what we have so far.....

Design Time

Attached are my designs. I am an amateur for sure and just used Microsoft word on a MAC. These are not proportional by any means. Just a visual for us to discuss possibilities with our contractor. We took Andrew Morrison's Design and adjusted. You have to purchase plans to be able to build FYI. OPPS....just noticed some mistakes...will update soon...

Downsizing again!

Yikes! I sold and donated so much stuff and here we are at my moms house and we need to get rid of a ton more. It is a great idea to downsize before going tiny cause now I have time to organize and sift through stuff.

Our house sold and we are officially mortgage free! Hurray!
