We're just like you....only prettier! No wait, that's a Miranda Lambert song

Although, we are a pretty pair! 

See what I mean....
Sidenote: This guy makes my heart swoon!!! I love my beach bum, sailor husband, but there will always be a special place in my heart for my cowboy husband!!! 💖😍💖 #sameguy

Where were we? Oh yeah! We're just like you....

Only our house is not a house at all....it's a boat. 

And the living space is equal to that of, let's say a one car garage. 

When we turn on the tap & water doesn't flow out, it's not because we forgot to pay the bill.....it's because our holding tanks are empty & need refilling....even if it is 9:30 at night. 

When I 'vacuum & mop'.....this is what it looks like. I know what you're thinking, that looks like a lot of fun! Eh, not so much, but it's not bad, either. 

We go inside when it rains, just like I'm sure you do! ....{you wouldn't believe the amount of times we get asked, "what do you do when it rains?"} Seriously. 

Our backyard is a really large pond....also known as the ocean!

We still do everything we did when living in a house....now, it's just a lot closer proximity!

This is what it looks like when I've just "mopped" the floors and Joe needs his lunch out of the fridge so he can leave for work. That's where that close proximity actually comes in handy & I can stand on the bottom step with one foot, while my other foots is prpped on the ledge under our oven....and reeeeach into the fridge!!


We, er I still cook and bake....yes, we have an oven, and a fridge, albeit both tiny, but we have them! Here's just a few of the things of cooked up recently, in my itty bity kitchen! 
{Note to self: add these recipes to the recipe tab} ;)

We still have clothes that need to be ironed, so, I use my flat iron on clothes too! Every item on the boat needs to be dual-purpose. 

Making the bed is a bit more challenging, but clean sheets are a must, so making the bed becomes a must as well. This is probably why I don't make the bed throughout the week....kind of like a little reward for putting the clean sheets on it

Now, if you really want to know what it's like living on a boat....take this challenge! Next time you wash your sheets, try making your bed while you're laying on top of it. If you can accomplish that, you can live on a boat!!! 

What about you, could you/would you live on a boat? Let us know in the comments!!
