[@ronb6182]

@@laurirohr5364 I like this set-up I don't know how I could design something like this, I would need two twin beds on the end where you have your bed. My wife and I must be able to get up to go to the restroom which I would have in a separate building. The kitchen is ok maybe a small real refrigerator and a small chest type freezer I could incorporate it as one of your cook spaces and have a wood top on the freezer. I don't need a so called stove I can use one of my four butane stoves. I don't remember if you told the size of the trailer. I would put the propane tank outside on the tongue or somewhere else. What I want is to park this on my lot for a winter home in Florida. I know you would need a large truck and I don't have but could rent one. This is cool and I could build it better than an already built trailer. I must have AC. 73

I moved to take care of my mom in her last months then stayed since then to care for my dad. (Almost 94). The biggest blessing is spending time and learning things about his life that I never knew since he was an airline pilot and not home every day. So many adventures I never knew about.

Perfect balance between minimal and having it all. Some builds have clean lines but are stark and institutional looking while others look too busy and cluttered. The brink wallpaper, white cabinets, and real bed make it look like a brick and sticks home.

[@torrielynnmusic2648]

My grandmother, mother, and uncles had Menaires Disease. Back in the 70s , they removed my grandmother's inner ear. Which helped. But then she was always off balance. And if course could not hear as well. They say I have it. But I can not get on the spin chair. I have vertigo.. I'm so glad to have come across this video..

My mom and dad were married from 1938 until Dad passed in 2005. Mom did ok at first but slowly started showing signs of dementia. Her father and sister had the same and were both angry and difficult. Mom stayed calm and thankful for the care she received from me as her care person for eight years and the wonderful people in the fabulous home she went into after she started falling and needed more care than I was capable of. Mom passed two years ago at 102. I miss her and Dad but know their lives together were full of love and shared hiking and hiking and traveling. I really like the friendship you two have and understanding of the illnesses you both have. Many years of friendship and sharing.

God bless you two ladies. While I wouldn't wish these disabilities on anyone I'm shedding tears of joy and relief because there are at least two other people out there besides myself determined to live joyfully despite these issues. I've wanted to get in the road for so long but didn't believe I could with fibromyalgia. Thanks to you two I now believe I can. Now is the "how.".

[@jodybogdanovich4333]

I have multiple medical problems, including sleep apnea for which I was able to get the Inspire implant, but I also require supplemental oxygen for a lung disease. I have an autoimmune disease, psoriatic arthritis. I'm 68 but do get out for trips, staying in my little teardrop trailer with kitchen and a tiny bathroom and cassette toilet (I have IBS--toilet is a must!). Last summer I spent a month exploring national parks. Fatigue is a huge issue for me but I just take my time and rest as needed, sometimes a day or two, before moving on. I'm not full-time in it but foresee the day I could be. I'm in Washington state and our gas prices never did go back down much from last summer and gas is again over $5 a gallon so haven't gone far this year. I'd love to relocate but have a great team of doctors around me now. Best wishes to you. You can do it!

[@authordebradickinson]

She can use her chair and the bed can easily be used as a couch bed/day bed. Until I had one built in, here is the link for the folding porta potty I used in my cargo van conversion - amzn.to/3yYbCL2. Lauri does something similar.

Thanks to you both for sharing this lovely trailer. I too love how open it feels - I'm certain that's necessary for both Lauri and the dogs! Throughout watching this I loved all the details you both shared, but my little reptile brain kept waiting for information on how Lauri deals with 'personal hygiene' needs. Perhaps she didn't want to go into that (her choice) but it's absolutely essential for life on the road - or parked up!

I'm glad you enjoyed the tour and I understand your question. You are correct ... not everyone wants to show such details in their home and I respect their privacy on that when requested. Lauri has shared in other comments though that she uses the 5 gallon bucket method and Navy shower in the trailer, and also runs into town from time to time for showers. I hope this helps.

Lovely build. Excellent decorating scheme. Would like to know where she got her bead board on the walls and how thick it is. I'm In the process of building a little tiny house cabin and having a time figuring out what to put on walls. Not really crazy about drywall. Sure would appreciate an answer on this. Thanks

[@laurirohr5364]

Hi Terry! We got the bead board at Home Depot. It isn't that thick & comes in large sheets. After it was hung I .painted it all white. Thank you for your interest & good luck with your build!

[@kathe.o.]

Lauri, I love your fireplace. I'm also electronic & sound sensitive, but not to your extent. The roar in my head at times requires a trip to the bathroom, to run the faucet, I listen to & watch the water. For the light sensitivity I found the neatest glasses with tiny holes. They help block out excessive light plus they assist with astymatism. Had to watch this video 3x to get it all. Keep rolling Lauri.

Dear Debra and sweet Laurie, thank you so much for sharing your stories. 😪 I cant tell you how isolating a injury like this makes us. I have Ttrigeminal Nneuralgia due to an injury in 2005 I was shot with a 22 . mini it's a very tiny bullet and I'm gratefil/lucky I survived. I was shot in the side of my left eye. it's a difficult injury to describe. basically I lost left eye, sense of smell, and taste. Just after being shot i was so happy to be alive, and wanted to be strong and not allow it to impact my kids any more than necessary... I just went on with life.and raising my 2 gkids. 9yrs later my symptoms had gradually gotten worse sensitivity to light, certain tones, buzzing in my ears. I started being quick tempered, etc I knew something was really wrong .... meantime gkids were 13 & 15 and my daughter was wanting to be thier mom... hard as it was ... I let them go with her. I moved 20 min away ... and began seeking a diagnosis. after 2 surgeries to remove bullet fragments ... I was diagnosed with Trigeminal neuralgia which is "progressive" the reason I wanted to reach out to you girls is most support groups I find are more about comiserating and wallowing in the condition. we are so much more! our condition is just our hurdle. we can support one another but we can also encourage one another to keep living keep getting up and out there living our lives. I've probably already saiid too much! thank you so much for all you do! Janette

What a beautiful home! So well planned and thought out. Using upper cabinets as lower ones is genius! Thank you, Lauri, for sharing this bundle of inspiration.

[@authordebradickinson]

Ty for this kind shoutout to my friend! 😍

[@joanies6778]

For pour over coffee, I use an electric tea pot with the long curvy spout. I love it because it automatically shuts off once it boils. I have fallen asleep or gotten distracted too many times with water boiling on the stove, and it was forgotten. It uses less energy! Also, the bottom does not get hot because it's enclosed, so, it can be put on the counter. Something to consider.

[@authordebradickinson]

Good idea. Thx for sharing! I need to add ... the option of an electric tea pot might not work if boondocking or drydocking - depending on solar power, size of inverter, other power needs, etc. That's why most use pour over coffee from boiling water (on a butane or propane stove) when boondocking or drydocking. But def something to consider. Thx again!

[@micheledavis3735]

This is so spooky...I've been having what I've called dissociative periods when I check out in times of loud stress. Even eustress which is supposed to be beneficial stress and I've never told anyone. Sometimes people say unkind things to me because I might say something completely off the wall or out of context and I cannot explain it to anyone. Recently, my sister, 20 years my senior passed and I lived with her her last 3 years of her life and she had dementia and cancer...now, her twin is going through it and I do all I can to go be with her for great lengths of time and they raised me so this feels like my raison d'être. It's really changed me. Thank you both for this amazing video and this home you've created is absolutely the right garden in which you can grow and thrive. I'm happy for both of you. 🩵

It's lovely! I wish she had mentioned the brick wall paper, I love it! I would have liked to see an emergency escape window in the back near the bed.

Hi Patty, maybe she will see this and can address the wallpaper. As for an emergency exit, the entire back wall is a garage door and comes down. 👍🏼
