I live in a 10x50 mobile home built in 1972 haha! It was a piece of junk when we found it and had been sitting in a field for awhile. We spent 5 months fixing it up before moving in, installing hardwood floors throughout, new carpet in the bedrooms, and lots of painting. You might say, who would put hardwood in an almost 40yr old mobile home? We were lucky in the fact that one of our friends had just built his 400,000 dream home and had plenty leftover hardwood. He gave it to us, lucky we are! We also have a friend who gave us a beautiful living room set that was hardly used at all, because she likes to change her furniture every 2-5 yrs, or whenever she gets tired of it. I wish we had that luxury and money to do that. We both work 40+ hrs a week-I have been at the bank as senior teller for 18 yrs and he is an equipment operator at a construction company, but it's just hard to make ends meet because of my many health problems, so this is what we could afford. We get many compliments on our cozy little MH because people don't expect it to be so nice inside, luckily my hubby is very handy. I would love to have more space, but since I am in so much pain all the time, I am blessed to not have a big house to clean. Plus it's paid for............
