I’m a mum-of-three and trolls slam me for living in a tiny shed – but I don’t care, I’m mortgage and debt free

A MUM-OF-THREE has revealed that people make fun of her for living in a tiny shed, but she doesn’t care.

Savannah, who lives in Texas, US, won’t listen to those who critique her lifestyle, after she decided to move out of the 1,800 sq ft house in the city that she once lived in for a converted 600 sq ft shed in the country instead.

But Savannah was keen to clap back at trolls who ‘make fun’ of her and don’t agree with her frugal lifestyle[/caption]

Now, the self-confessed ‘crunchy mum’ is not only mortgage free, but debt free too.

Posting on social media, the red-haired beauty, who adopts a ‘slow’ and ‘frugal’ way of living, shared a clip as she posed outside her tiny home.

She wrote: “When someone makes fun of me for living in a shed but I’m mortgage free.” 

Clapping back to the trolls who don’t agree with her minimalist life, Savannah mimed along to a viral TikTok audio that said: “Not everybody fits in the bad b***h genre. It’s a genre.”

She also then added: “Your opinion is not my reality”. 

But whilst Savannah’s custom made shed, which she bought from a family friend and has a living area, kitchen, bathroom and three bedrooms, isn’t the biggest, it is in fact surrounded by lots of land.

Savannah explained: “We bought 26 acres with my parents! We would have bought five-10 acres probably if it was just us. There’s lots of land in Texas.”

The mum-of-three then went on to explain that her tiny shed has a full-size fridge and freezer, as well as a full-size stackable washer dryer in the bathroom.

And whilst they have to make adjustments to accommodate guests, she stressed that “it’s not unfair” on her children, who “still have their decorations…plenty of toys, and a regular full-size twin bunk bed.”

She revealed: “We live in a shed house, and yes, we still love to host. We just may sit on the floor so you can take the sofas.”

Keen to set the record straight with the haters, she claimed: “I may not have a typical “house” but I have a home.

“If you want to keep paying a mortgage and interest, go for it. Been there, done that, not for me.” 

Do I need planning permission to convert my shed?

CONVERTING an existing shed or outbuilding into a self-contained living space will usually require you apply for planning permission.

However, there is a “loophole” Brits can use to convert outbuildings into a tiny home without permission.

Planning expert Martin Gaine from Just Planning warned the conversion process is far easier than you may think.

Speaking to The Sun, the Chartered Town Planner of 14 years’ experience explained: “An outbuilding can be built using ‘permitted development rights’, meaning it does not need planning permission.

“As long as you comply with the various restrictions and conditions.”

One of these is that the outbuilding can only be used for something ‘ancillary’ to your main living accommodation – examples include storage, a gym or a pool room.

If the outbuilding is existing, converting it then into primary living accommodation IS allowed.

Martin explained: “This is because internal changes to an existing building are not considered to be development at all under the Town and Country Planning Act.

But like anything, there is one catch.

The new living accommodation must still have some connection with your use of the main house.

For instance, if your gran is living out there, she must still come into the house to eat.

The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @thehotmesshomestead, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly amassed over 8,600 likes. 

But whilst people haven’t always been kind to Savannah about her shed home, many social media users were ‘jealous’ of her debt free lifestyle.

One person said: “You are living my dream.

“I literally cannot wait to sell my house and downsize EVERYTHING. The white picket fence life SUCKS.” 

Another added: “My dream!” 

A third commented: “Not gonna lie, I’m jelly.”

Whilst someone else chimed in: “I can’t even afford a shed.”

I found terrifying ‘are you thick’ note & deflated tyre after morning dog walk at popular park… I could have died

A DOG walker said her life was ‘put in danger’ after a stranger left a nasty note on her car and let down her tyre.

The woman had been visiting Baggeridge Country Park, Dudley when her motor was targeted on a residential street.

Rude note left on a car: "Are you f***ing thick?"

“Are you f****** thick?” was scrawled in large capital letters on a napkin and her tire had been let down.

She’s parked her car on a street near the popular beauty spot for a brisk walk on the morning of Christmas Eve 2024.

Left shaken up by the incident, she told Birmingham Live: “I was shocked to find the note left on my windscreen and worst still, to find my tyre let down.

“It was really upsetting to think some had let my tyre down and deliberately tried to endanger my life and cause me to have an accident in the process. My wing mirror was pushed in too.

“This was also criminal damage. I know other people park on Fir Street to use Baggeridge too.”

Fir Street is a residential road within walking distance from the park.

It is not known if the woman had parked in an obstructive way, but according to the Highway Code, all road users are technically entitled to park outside houses.

The Highway Code, paragraph 207, asks that people DO NOT park their vehicle where it might cause an obstruction to other pedestrians or road users, and cites the example of not parking in front of another person’s driveway.

In essence, while there are certain rules and regulations under the Highway Code relating to parking on public highways, mostly it’s a matter of common decency and courtesy.

This comes after a couple who live in a van have discovered a way to avoid parking fines.

Ric and Keira discovered a “loophole in the system” when it comes to parking in supermarket car parks.

In a video on their YouTube channel, Touring With The Kids, the couple summarised the method and showed how seamless it has made their living.

Dad Ric described how frustrating it can be to try and use supermarket car parks as many typically have time restrictions.

But by downloading and quickly signing up to a popular app, the pair have managed to find the perfect “hack” to help find places to stay overnight.

The app, YourParkingSpace, lets you book time across many public car parks, including supermarkets.

It has over a million downloads from the Google Play Store and a rating of 4.2 from over 7000 reviews.

It has been a game changer for the family as they can now avoid fines and time restrictions for “next to nothing”.

For their overnight stay in the video, the couple said it cost them just £2.50 to stay in the car park.

YourParkingSpace allows booking at more than 700,000 spots across the UK, including supermarkets such as Asda, Sainsbury’s, and Tesco.

It works similarly to other parking apps like JustPark, with YourParkingSpace also allowing bookings on private driveways.

Ex-Cork GAA prodigy to make first Munster start as young line-up chosen for Dragons trip amid Six Nations camp

BEN O’CONNOR will make his first start for Munster as a fresh-faced Reds XV hits up Rodney Parade tonight.

With Ireland stars Tadhg Beirne, Jack Crowley, Conor Murray, Calvin Nash and Peter O’Mahony away in camp ahead of the Six Nations, O’Connor is one of six changes to the side that faced Northampton last week.

A talented centre-back, O’Connor won two All-Irelands with the Cork hurlers — at minor and Under-20 level — before deciding his long-term future was at Thomond Park.

He starred for Ireland at the Under-20 Rugby World Cup in South Africa last year as the Green Army ultimately came up short against England in the semis.

It will be his eighth appearance overall for the Reds but it is a first start for the exciting rookie, 20.

Academy hooker Danny Sheahan has been named on the bench and is set to make his senior debut as the basement boys host 11-placed Munster.

As well as O’Connor, Shane Daly, Billy Burns Ethan Coughlan, Tom Ahern and captain Jack O’Donoghue come into the team following the two-point Champions Cup defeat to the Saints.

Diarmuid Kilgallen — who scored two tries in last week’s European clash — makes a first URC start for the Reds.

The province confirmed that Mike Haley has successfully gone under the knife after picking up an ankle injury last time out.

MUNSTER: B O’Connor; D Kilgallen, T Farrell, R Scannell, S Daly; B Burns, E Coughlan; D Bleuler, D Barron, O Jager; F Wycherley, T Ahern; J O’Donoghue, A Kendellen, G Coombes.

Reps: D Sheahan, K Ryan, J Ryan, E O’Connell, B Gleeson, P Patterson, T Butler, J Hodnett.

Today’s 7.35pm kick-off will be shown live on RTE Two.

‘It’s good he’s not dancing around’ – Luke Littler responds to darts rival’s new walk-on song

LUKE LITTLER admitted he “fell asleep” before setting up another blockbuster clash with Michael van Gerwen.

The 18-year-old ground out a 6-4 win over Dimitri Van den Bergh in his Dutch Masters opener – after the Belgian had shaken up his walk-on routine.

However, the teen sensation needed to hit three 180s in the last two legs to get over the line after a mid-match slump.

On going up a gear, he admitted: “I had to. Dimitri was behind me all the way.

“But two-nil up, fell asleep and I had to find other gears.

“The World Series is a massive thing. You go to all these different countries. But I would say it’s match practice for the Premier League.”

Van den Bergh surprisingly dumped his classic Happy walk-on song and dance for the occasion.

It was replaced by Play Hard by David Guetta.

When asked about it, Littler replied: “I don’t really know. I think it’s good for us players that he’s not there dancing around!

“So we get to walk-on quicker. He can take his time. It’s a good song.”

Littler now faces Van Gerwen in the quarters, a repeat of their World Final clash at the Ally Pally three weeks ago.

He added: “Obviously I’d like to get another win and progress to the semi-final.

“I think Michael might be thinking he wants revenge, especially in his backyard.

“It would be a good thing to beat him in his backyard.

“Like I said, win that game and guarantee myself a place in the semi-final.”

Luke Littler prize money breakdown

Here is all the prize money Luke Littler has won so far after being crowned 2025 PDC World Darts Championship winner:

World Championship 2025 – £500,000

World Championship 2024 – £200,000

MVG will go into his rematch with Littler sporting a broken toe.

The three-time world champion suffered a freak injury while on holiday with his family in Thailand.

Asked if the injury would hamper him in the tournament, he replied: “[It’s] annoying, but you can’t do anything about it.

“It happened last week on holiday. Accidents can happen. I enjoyed my holiday. I definitely had a nice rest.”
