Old age brings a rash of problems that have nothing to do with your life but somehow become the focal point of your daily existence. Who knew pill popping at $5 a pill times four or five would produce such a strain on your meager purse. When your children come to visit why is it all they seem capable of doing is asking you what time it is because, you know, they have to get back to THEIR life of frivolity and overspending.
After a certain age, though, reality kicks in and you realize your ability to remain in your house might be suspect. The notion of independence that youth clings to as if they were holding a fortune in their hand finally reveals itself to be nothing more than fool’s gold wisdom that won’t even buy you a cup of coffee at your favorite local diner. The thought of asking your kids to make room for your presence is probably akin to picking up after your dog, but the thought of a nursing home is so scary that you get over that feeling fast.
Well, say hello to Tumbleweed Tiny Houses! They are small, affordable houses that easily fit into any backyard and enable you to be a part of an extended family unit whether they want you or not. Dollhouse lovers will go bonkers. So stop complaining about how nobody loves you, pull your pickup truck up to one of these tiny houses, and pretend you’re Jed Clampett from the Beverly Hillbillies moving in so you can make everyone’s life that much better…no is not an option!
