I know exactly how much space there is in an 800 sq ft house,

Give us the length and width of each room.

There's no way you can fit *3* decent sized bedrooms, a living
room, *one* bathroom and an "eat in" kitchen into that space
unless they are postage stamp sized. It's hard enough to fit ONE
bedroom, a kitchen, bathroom and living room into 800 sq feet.

Depends on what you call "decent sized". We lived in an apartment
the same size, 800 square feet for about a year. Had 3 bedrooms,
each of 100 square feet, 10X10; bathroom was 8X5, 40 square feet,
living, dining, kitchen gave up the other 460 square feet. It ain't
comfortable or roomy but it sure was cheap at $45.00 a month,
including utilities. This was 1961 of course.

My last apartment (1998) was 900 sq. ft., 2 bedroom, 1-1/2 baths,
living room, eat-in kitchen and laundry area (stackables, also in the
kitchen). A third bedroom wouldn't have made any sense in that
limited space. As it was, though, for me it was plenty roomy; the
2nd bedroom was my office/extra storage space.

As for kili, I'd find some way to organize the "computer stuff" in
the 2nd bedroom so the space is usuable. Covered plastic storage
bins are cheap at Wally-World. And carpet shouldn't be a problem.
Persia's litterbox is on carpet in the hall by my 2nd bathroom
(there's a sort of recessed area next to the bathroom door by the
utility closet door). I bought one of those cheap plastic carpet
runners to place underneath it. It's cut to fit well outside the
boundaries of the box. No problems But then again, she has 3
cats to my one.

Speaking of Persia, Jill, have you figured out how you're going to
get her to your Mom's, yet? She's been on my mind.

I'm going home, kili. When/if I come back I'll be driving and bringing her
along. (My middle brother has agreed to take care of Peaches.)
