This lady is amazing, a 'life gives us lemons so make lemonade' type of person. Love the individualism of the tiny house. So many lessons for the younger generation, including being happy with just enough.

@golivtiny I'm a ceramist / illustrator & a senior, the lord blessed me with the talent I have as he has given us all our own unique gifts/skills/talents. And in doing so we are to give, help, inspire others with the gifts he's bestowed on us. So, I would like to send her a handmade frog. Where do I mail it? Blessings funny lady you are so gifted as well, I admire your bringing laughter to others & your ability to not only start over but build!!!😮 I so hope your careful coming & going up those stairs, truly don't know how you do it! I can't or couldn't, seems I don't have the upper strength in my legs anymore, golden years is what they have grossly mislabeled it😢 My eyes lit up when you mentioned a slide, that's exactly what I have been comptemplating doing if & when I'm ever blessed with a tiny home. Still trying to figure out okay a slide to get down, but how to get back up, chair lift I suppose, but you'd need more floor space & stand up room once the knees won't allow you to crawl anymore, a tall enough rail to in case you loose your balance as we age further.😮 Have you given any thought on re-designing somehow, downstairs bedroom, have you heard of the add a box from incredible tiny homes? It would definitely solve your bedroom issue & closets.😊 If you ever do decide, I can save you 500.00 off the price, ck NEW deal out just announced: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nLmqa5Vos9nIhac.htmlsi=4A3pG7GTtEFrxucW I'll send you my contact info when you send me info on getting your frog to you.❤

I absolutely love the curtains. I plan on doing likewise. Suzy has such a cute bubbly personality. She’s clever and has ingenious ideas. I loved her jokes. She’s done well. I loved her F.R.O.G. acronym, of which I had never heard of before. It’s very clear to me that she’s relied on God.

Suzy is a hoot - and a smart and capable and funny one at that! I love when you feature can-do women like Suzy, proving that we can learn how to do anything ourselves, all we need is the right attitude. So great that so many people are reusing leftover construction materials that otherwise would likely end up in a landfill somewhere. Go Suzy!

@DawnOldham 3 ай бұрын

She's really grew on me the more she told jokes and laughed at them herself! Sooo cute! I love her outlook on life. I hope her health allows her to access that loft for a long time to come. And I wish there was some way to crowd fund her two little loft windows that would open to give her that cross breeze she's missing. A "ribbeting" video, as promised! 😊

I’ve never ever watched a Tiny Tour with jokes included! 😂😂 she is absolutely delightful and her home is a true reflection of her warm and funny personality. Well done! She’s proof that happiness and contentment doesn’t need to come from Mc Mansions with all the latest and greatest modern conveniences! She’s obviously happy and at peace with her lifestyle which is wonderful! Remember everyone, when making financial decisions “If it costs you your peace, it’s too expensive.”

Suzy's home is amazing. She did a fantastic job building this home.

Green & purple coordinate well together, too. Love it.
