84 sq ft house

From what I've seen in my short half-century of life,

most of God's people on earth (i.e. not in the untied states or eur-hic-ope) (and some there still)

already do(live in a smaller place). many willingly.(like Moses, refusing the glory of the world and instead living God's Way)

(but theirs are made from cardboard, dirt, and tin - functional, not pretty)(or tents)
 
Having lived without plumbing and electricity.. in those tents with the board floors and half walls.. I am was to young to remember the tent without the wood floor... i am very thankful for the blessings God has granted..
 
We have a 35 foot camper that we just bought and I would love to live in it all year around. I'd have no problem selling all we own in our house to move in there.The only bills are the lot rent, electric and propane, which is all very cheap. On the down side, no water or septic system where we camp. I have no problem ruffing it even in the winter, but hubby says no way will he use an outhouse in the winter. We are considering it though as we could make some changes to make it all work out.

I have lived without indoor plumbing and running water. No running water for 1 year and no septic system for another year. That was with 4 kids and two adults, in Colorado Mt. winters. No thank you.

I was sixteen when we got running water and a real bathroom. Imagine 8 kids and two adults taking sink baths. We did have a pot to do our business in during the winter, but the upstairs back room got so cold at times the lid would freeze and you had to pry it off hopefully not spilling the contents within...........ugh............and then have the neighborhood kids see you emptying it in the woods..........so embarrassing. Had to heat the water on the stove and share the bath water when we were little. A special treat was when my Grandparents would bring out the big galvanized tube and we took real baths in their basement as they had no running water either.
 
I could probably do it if it was only me.
