An air-mattress on a sleeper-sofa can make it more tolerable. For your more mature guests, a quality futon can serve well, but can set you back a pretty penny. We are trying to do the same thing. Only if our house would sell! We are trying to knock off about 1, sq.
We only use half the space we own as it is. It will be nice to let some stuff go with the next move. What you describe is my dream: I dream of living in a smallish, streamlined place with a few prized possession, a few comfortable clothes, a reliable car and my beloved dog. We slept on one for the first two years of our marriage!
We were really serious about saving money. Many people thought we were nuts though. We went from a 3, sq. I do have to carefully watch our space though. My wife and I are wrestling with whether or not to upsize to a larger home. So, do we go to a sq ft little house, or a sq. Not sure, not sure….
I love the house but it is a bit too big for a single person. I plan to downsize it in a few years. My husband, two daughters and I are relocating and were resolved to not up-size.

We happily found another house the same size, about sq ft. The only thing holding us back from downsizing was wanting a space for the girls to have their friends over. We have been happy and content in our smaller home. I never expected to fall asleep when they pulled it out but was pleasantly surprised.
What an inspiring post. I look forward to reading more about this as it happens. DH and I briefly talked about adding on to our house when we first bought it, but have decided against it. More space would just mean more stuff and maintenance. I live in a 1 bedroom in Mpls and have an airmatress which was a hand me down from my grandparents.
It work great when I have people over. My husband, 2 daughters and I live in a sq ft house, and I love it. But we really wanted our kids to have someplace to hang out with friends. My house is square feet. That could be considered little. A sq ft house?
Large, if you ask me. This book has given me courage! High rating because it hits a sore spot at just the right time. Let's see if I can implement philosophy and tactics!
Weirdly written and dry This book was weirdly written in so much as the author refers to herself by her first name when storytelling instead of just saying "I did this" she says "Betty did this" Also the book was a dry read the advice given was basic at best and read more like a blog post than a book with tons of links in the text to various websites.
If I wanted a bunch of links I would read a blog not a book. I give this book 2 stars for effort and the possibility that it might help a very beginn Weirdly written and dry This book was weirdly written in so much as the author refers to herself by her first name when storytelling instead of just saying "I did this" she says "Betty did this" Also the book was a dry read the advice given was basic at best and read more like a blog post than a book with tons of links in the text to various websites.
I give this book 2 stars for effort and the possibility that it might help a very beginner who is just starting to clutter. Mar 05, Lisa rated it really liked it Recommends it for: I love books on organizing and clearing spaces. This book takes a slightly more intellectual approach than most. The authors really want you think things through as you purge. They have included some good examples of what they went through personally as they moved across the country and into a much smaller home.
I think this book would appeal to people facing that same situation.

This is wonderful timing. Thanks for sharing… best wishes on your transition! We are going to replace beds with sleeper sofas and maybe a futon. It was both cost effective and a practical solution, considering I was able to put a treadmill in the room as well.
