His architecture sense goes haywire, thinking of all the potential problems... did they figure in the weight of the soil on the roof, amount of moisture in the wood, the effects of frost, etc? The structural integrity of the house makes him nervous (his specialty is structures more than design...). He's really excited about more conventional natural building methods, like those that use earth bags or cordwood.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I think I've been in the same yurt you have :-) and yeah, that's still a dream, someday. There's something so appealing about a round house.Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04535968035012266487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1348024911170290265.post-58439592387821428462008-07-06T11:41:00.000-05:002008-07-06T11:41:00.000-05:00I've often thought that I would love to get rid of...I've often thought that I would love to get rid of everything and be nomadic. Very much like your sister. Sometimes I feel so burdened and overwhelmed by all of our "stuff" and the maintenance that goes along with it. Everyone tells me that this would be a horrible life and that as soon as I sold everything (including our house) I would be wishing for a homebase with my own stuff. Who can really say for sure?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1348024911170290265.post-74130049821328117372008-07-01T20:18:00.000-05:002008-07-01T20:18:00.000-05:00I would like to hear more.

I've agreed to go back with a support team in tow, but I want to know what options are out there. I had never thought too much about why/where/how and what kind of medical treatment I seek. If you have any reading suggestions I'd love to find out what else is out there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1348024911170290265.post-38555534149329964842008-07-01T15:25:00.000-05:002008-07-01T15:25:00.000-05:00Love the Hobbit House!

Of course, every time I start to get my brood on, there's a leak in the basement, or a crack in the floor, or the blah-blah has gone Blong-Zing...freakingidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06078148430169909462noreply@blogger.com
