Long Term Goal: Dining area

After months of searching our tiny house for a few more inches of space, we've come to the conclusion that the best option is to change out our barely functional washer and dryer for a stacking set. In theory, this should allow us to move the litter box into the laundry room and turn the corner of the kitchen currently used for trash and litter box into a little dining area. This could take months, or longer, to make happen -- especially with the long list of major expenses looming in the near-ish future: washer, dryer, mattress (the metal spring coming through the material was a pretty good wake-up call to the fact that we can't keep ignoring this one), cat dental work, to name a few. So, it'll be a long term project, but at least we have a plan.
