Damn, last week was busy that barely posted anything. Heck, I didn’t even do most of my normal posting. Of course, this is actually no indication that anything has slowed down a bit.
It’s been all Crunchy Bits (the cookbook) all the time. That last bit of editing is dang near done but have a long session of layout to do. I’m talking about a little that’s going to be going on almost every page. And no. There isn’t a way that I can I do it quickly and simply. The lesson here is prior planning people. Those last minute ideas really push back project completion.
This also means I haven’t had a lick of time to work on any of the RPG projects or do any writing. Every evening is something. Hell, that’s what life is all about. One damned thing after another.
My perfect plan is to have some good news by the end of the month. But, hell, I’ve said that before. So sit back and laugh at me while I try grind my threw this stuff. Like Warren Zevon said, “I’ll sleep when I’m dead.”

First let’s get this little bit out of the way. Bach is pronounced like batch not like the composer. Get it? It’s from New Zealand.
This whole idea has been months in the creation. It boils down to this. We know we need to some remodeling and/or changing of lifestyle around the old homestead. We’ve talked about it and gotten kind of nowhere. The S.O. started thinking about Container houses. This lead me to searching the webs and doing some research which eventually lead me to Tiny Homes. Like any bit of research, one thing leads to another and discovered oddly enough our current home is slightly bigger than the largest of what many consider to be a tiny house. We’ve got just under 1,000 SF of living space.
This lead to our design ideas of taking some the efficient designs of tiny home living and applying to our current house. But we’re not done yet. The other day I heard about Baches in New Zealand. Basically, a small bachelor pad. A small house. But here’s the kicker. It’s built from salvaged and hand-me-down materials. Now there’s a cool idea. Heck, we’ve already redid our kitchen island like this.
So the plan is simple. Craigslist, Habitat for Humanity Restore Stores, and Freecycle. Let’s see how far we can take this. Oh, updates and even more craziness is on the horizon for me.
