My life as a kid growing up was so like Kevin Arnold (he was the young boy in the TV show the Wonder Years about family life in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s). I lived in your typical Levittown-esque 1,500 square foot ranch home with 3 tiny bedrooms. I shared a 12’ x 12’ bedroom with my older much uglier (just kidding) brother Frank and the room was so tight our beds were smashed together. I used to wrestle my cousins on this bed…

The story of an empty nester couple whose “nest” no longer fits their lifestyle

You’ve raised Joannie, Anthony and Bobby and lived to tell about it! Too many to mention sleepless nights when they strolled in late from parties with some lame excuse why they were home late.

Your 4-bedroom suburban Upper Arlington home is so quiet now. No kids running around. No fights between Michael, David and Lisa to officiate. Now it’s just you and Henry in this big old house with tons of memories and all the stuff you’ve accumulated over the last 20 years. How did your clothes, shoes, tools, and yard equipment get so gigantic? It must be Henry’s fault for being on a first name basis with the guy at Home Depot! (OK –…

Are you as fascinated by the tiny home shows on TV as I am? Doesn’t it look like a ton of fun (and less stress) to lead a simpler life with less bills to pay and rooms to clean?
