THE WORST PART OF LIVING TINY 🚐

100%. I genuinely couldn’t just sit and watch while someone is cleaning around me and not help out. Like come on dude, step up!

[@Lethalport1515]

How do you know he hasn't just by this small clip?! We don't get a live feed of peoples lives, well usually anyway, so how can you know if he does or doesn't off-screen! For all we know, they could have a roster of who does what, and they have allocated days where each of them clean. He also could have just been having a break or everything else was done, and there was just the sweeping to be done. Also, I myself know from living in a tiny flat that sometimes more than one person doing the cleaning/ whatever activities or chores in a small space can be difficult, getting in the way of each other and possibly just making more mess. Sometimes, it's just more time efficient to have one person doing things in such a small space. While yes, their space looks big enough that while one is doing a chore in one area, the other could also be doing so in another area, but who's to say that's not what may have happened in this clip just because we didn't see him doing it?!

[@StrawberryFieldsNIR]

Indeed. Him sitting there whilst she does ALL the cleaning around him, does not bode well. Dude, you live there too, you do 50%.

Best cleaning tip my mom taught me was to clean as you go. Not always possible but usually manageable, and so much better than a full sink and messy counters after dinner. That being said, small spaces are definitely trickier to keep clean but your place looks great 🙂

[@squarestar326]

What do u mean by "clean as u go" (english isnt my 1rs language). My mom wld clean every day, so it wld never be dirty, and do a bigger clean up on satuday mornings.isthat what u meant? I never have dirty dishes, for instance i CANNOT eat if there is dirty dishes in the sink, i clean b4 and afterwards, i also do my floor almost evey day.😅 since i live in 12m², (1m55 is 5 foot 2 i think🤔, if it helps.) it s necessary anyway. The annoying part is, since its small u got a lot of stuff and it gives the impression that it s a mess, when it s not. But,man , is it frustrating!

[@yazajag]

My father also taught me that. ❤

[@rivendells_shona]

Same with my mom!

[@rivendells_shona]

@@squarestar326pretty much what you said. My mom would clean most of the dinner prep dishes while dinner was cooking (other than the pots themselves, obviously). We preserved a lot of our produce when I was a kid so it was an ongoing process of prepping and cleaning, repeat, all day long. She was especially adamant during holiday baking and decorating or gift-preparation. “Make sure every project is cleaned up and put away before you move to the next!” I hated hearing that as a kid-it suspended the fun-but as soon as I hit adulthood, I got it.

[@gigilamoore2656]

So I had to sell my house ( after my husband's estate/tool sale and my yard sale when my house was ready to sell a year later). Moved into a small 2 bedroom older mobil home in a park, but with a magical small back yard. I am still putting a box or 2 of free stuff out by the curb even now.

I'm sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how traumatic all that was. I hope you are finding peace and joy in life. You certainly deserve to after losing so much. I think you should consider writing a book.

At our local hospital, they were pulling people off of ivermectin and putting them on narcotics instead. Before 2020 that was an illegal thing to do to pull people Off of doctor prescribed medication’s, especially potentially life-saving medications when right to try is a right. Now we know that ivermectin was life-saving according to statistics that came out of Florida and Africa. However, even though more people survived on it and other post care options such as melatonin treatment, it doesn’t mean everyone did, I am so sorry for your loss.

My sister and brother in law downsized to live in a 22 foot Winnebago, then downsized to a smaller unit, then an even smaller unit, the back up to the 22 foot Winnebago. Traveled the US for about 15-ish years, then bought a not quite double wide trailer in a senior community. From the time they moved into the first Winnie, they kept their "things" to a minimum. Just enuf kitchen stuff for 2 people, 2 sets of bed linens, 2 sets of bath linens for each of them, and for their clothes a set for warm weather and a set for cold. If they bought something new, they got rid of something they had. They always shopped thrift/second hand/resale stores for clothes. My brother in law did well for footwear at those stores. My sister couldn't for ortho reasons, so she would just keep an eye out for end of season sales and usually could find what she needed/wanted. They continue to live the frugal life.

Clothes: Downsize. Go by the days in a week, 7. Add one (8) then do laundry once , a week. As in: 8 pairs of pants (including shorts) 8 Shirts 👕, 8 underwear, etc. 4 Towels, washcloths, and hand towels. (Use twice) Shoes: 1 Pair of boots 🥾, 1 pair of Tennis shoes 👟 or the like, 1 pair of slippers, 1 pair of flip flops. 🩴 Only buy things you absolutely HAVE TO HAVE 😉👍🏽 We’ve been living Tiny for 8 years 😊

OMG, you have a beautiful tiny home! I love it. Even if you get overwhelmed, big deal. It's so nice.

[@GENgn48]

It’s beautiful. So glad you have such a beautiful space to spend your days. Time is precious to you I can imagine. With all the beauty you can enjoy!! 🥰

[@EireAussie]

My van is half the size of this RV. I feel you! I don’t live in mine full time but have taken it on some pretty big trips around Australia. Clutter and mess is the worst in a tiny space yes but it's easy to clean up fast! I wish I had all that space! I always have to remember to bring less on my travels. It's so easy to bring too much! You have a beautiful tiny home ❤

[@krisbarb9274]

I hear you girl. I live in a 1,500 square foot house 🏠 and still gets messy too. So don't feel bad.

[@skeingamepodcast5993]

I live on a sailboat and I hear you! My kitchen counter is the size of most people's cutting board. One meal for myself looks like I made dinner for 13. I have gone through my stuff SO many times, and I really have almost nothing left. But somehow it feels like I'm surrounded by "things".

[@gb469x]

I’m always curious about the sailboat life. Most on KZbin seem to be YouTubing as a career. What do you do for work and how does it measure up to the maintenance/supply costs of the boat?

[@loriyoung653]

Yes!! We are also in a small space and it feels like every day can be a battle to keep things clean! Even with organizing everything, it feels like I turn around and there is another mess to clean.

[@amybetzhold]

Downsizing is a constant struggle for me, I have a rule...if i bring one thing into our hone 2 things must go !! Everytime..Everything has to have a place. Because our space is so small. We've been at it over 5 years and it's still hard. Praying this gets easier for us all. ❤

[@Stay_tooned]

You are so right. A tiny space gets trashed so easy.

[@pattscollectons1234]

I hear ya I have a very small home and it has become so cluttered because I collect and do crafts but nowhere to put things, starting to get overwhelmed. I just wanna to throw everything out. But everyone tells me it's everything you love but dang....uggg I am disabled and have a hard time bend, so I'm torn.😮😊

[@patriciaholloway]

Oh boy do I relate. I'm disabled, in an apartment. Live with my 25 year old daughter. We both collect vintage and antiques and have amassed a bunch to sell also. I also resell clothes for a little extra. There's always stuff here and there. I love it, I don't want to change, but I also love cleanliness and being disabled, it's tricky at times.

[@vickywharton6297]

What a gorgeous little home you have!

[@ancaboghitoiu2971]

I am just like you when I get overwhelmed and can't do anything... My only chance at keeping things under control is to do small things as I go along... Like, when I cook I also clean what I don't need anymore and when I am done it's almost clean! The same with everything...I walk past things and just pick them up put them in their place and so on...

[@dearcole123]

I honestly absolutely hated living in an RV for this exact reason. I love to cook. Having space to spread out and prep veggies with my little one, while the muffins I prepped are baking in the oven, and a pot of soup simmers on the stove and my bread maker hums away …that is home bliss. Living in the Rv was so tight and confined. And the messes…. They were too much for me. In a house, if I get too overwhelmed or tired, I can literally just stuff the mess into a closet or guest bedroom for another day. It allows me to have the peaceful mind that I need to be happy. Even if I know the mess is in another room the fact that it’s not in view makes all the difference.

[@cindysuggs9991]

I do that too when I am overwhelmed.

[@CandaceMcBride-lt6tu]

So what do you do to get some action back?

[@marquepoolejewer9427]

It's hard to get started. But it's so satisfying when it's all clear and clean.

[@JaneSmith.9941]

Absolutely. But I still miss it! You have a lovely space and are doing such a great job with it!

[@donnajohnson3334]

At least is your fridge the reg. Size ?. A camper fridge is hard to store and juggle meals in. Always a struggle. With a reg. Fridge, I make up a pasta/ turkey broccoli dish kept in a single dish. I reheat it. I just finished a big can of peaches and a dish of franks and beans. I then replaced it with a spice cake for snacks and a vegetable dish as a side. You just can't do that in a tiny, dripping camp '.frige.

[@lenagraham2093]

It’s true. Not having enough counter space / storage space really makes for a place to feel messy quickly.

[@MPV919]

OMG you’re so fortunate!!! Your garden is the beach❤❤

[@CarolinaFlorezCoaching]

I feel you! Never lived in a tiny home but did live in a tiny studio and things got cluttered easy, however you could clean the space much faster, 100% agree.

[@greysfreak1992]

Yes!! It gets so annoying. I did dishes made my husband food for work and have a sink full of dishes again

[@immanoctopus]

I've downsized and decluttered my cooking process, not just items but steps. Into a lot of 1 pot meals now. And doing food prep beforehand helps, like chopping veggies and meats once every wrrk for the whole week.

[@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823]

It rots faster if you do it all right away, unless you freeze it.

[@immanoctopus]

@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 yes, I freeze it. Even bread I freeze haha.

[@amybetzhold]

I can absolutely relate! We live rv life full time I get the same way 😢

[@laina2848]

I can't do anything when Im overwhelmed too. This is why I love all the cool organization gadgets and tools from other countries. Can't wait til Im in my tiny home. Thanks for the share ❤

[@tkitti33]

I agree with you. I would be the exact same way. I agree with u on ur suggestion about another full sweep declutter! If u haven't used it or needed it in the last year...sell, donate or give way. 😉 You are amazing.. we are sooo similar. MY GOAL is to live under a small RV. I decided this the end of 2022. I hope you will respond n I have so many wisdoms but first I'm gonna watch all of your videos. I just happened to come across this one.. ❤

[@InterwebUser-ps7ju]

Yes, get rid of stuff like the kids, the dog, the husband and all the dishes 😂jk I feel you though I get the same way I cannot have clutter or a mess and if there is, it’s hard for me to function, so I can completely relate❤

[@SimplyBeautiful516]

Yes!!! Our tiny home has to be cleaned up constantly. But, you’re right that it only takes about an hour per day and that includes laundry, dishes, sweeping, bathrooms and just general tidying. So, I’m good. 😊

[@JustEnjoyingStuff]

It's a beautiful home,,, I understand the overwhelmed because I have gone through it too, but what helped me was actually switching the overwhelmed to thinking about how grateful I am to have a home to even clean, how grateful for my broom, grateful for my dishes and the meals that we eat on them and the ability to have arms and legs to go clean them etc. shifting focus and gratitude helps! ❤

[@ms.pirate]

I like you're decor. It's way more different then the boho, modern style I seen online. Btw where did you get you're kitchen focset? I'm researching for my budget when I get an RV, and after paying for the rig and some repairs and upgrades, want the interior to be goth (a small touch of color doesnt hurt the black decor)

[@MrBlondie45]

Maybe if that lazy man got off his butt and helped out

[@deborahdanhauer8525]

This is why tiny isn’t usually a good idea. Small is a much better idea. Instead of downsizing to something the size of a parking space, downsize to about 1000 square feet. It’s still small and a low foot print but not claustrophobic and you can make a meal without destroying your peace of mind.🐝❤️🤗

[@irenebaldwin8933]

Yup. Thank you for sharing ❤ , I live in a small space and I often feel super-sloppy and it gets overwhelming ... I rag on myself, but yes its the teeny tiny space making it harder than before. I'm going to be less self-critical, Thanks ❤ !
