This is probably a dumb one, but here goes.

I've got a tiny house with one bathroom, and it only has a shower. I love taking hot baths, used to do it 2-3 times a week, more often when I'm sick, and I miss that. I have a pretty big shed in my back yard, think one of those pre-fab things... it's got some tools and stuff but it's mostly empty space. It's pretty close to a hosebib and an exterior electrical outlet on the side of my house, so I've got cold water and extension cord access.

Is it even reasonable to consider ways to set up a tub in the shed? Maybe freestanding? maybe something I build from fiberglass? I'm pretty confident I can drain the water out into my backyard with no issues (big yard, neighbors won't see / care), but is there anything obviously impossible or really stupid about this idea? Is it possible to use an electric water heater or should I figure out something with propane / butane? Anyone tried anything like this before?

 

I still have a FB account since it's the only contact I have these days with a lot of my highschool friends. I logged in earlier today and saw this "NASA is a hoax" garbage in my "suggested" feed.

There's nothing in my history to suggest I have any interest in conspiracy theories. My friends are probably right-leaning on average (I'm from a small town in the south - so it goes), but I clicked and none of them are in that group. So I'm sort of assuming this is promoted. Joy.

Not out of my office, but right in front of it while my team was coming back from lunch. A woman was hit by a truck and we blocked the road + stayed with her until the paramedics came & took her to the hospital. I have no idea what happened to her afterward - it's one of those things that I occasionally remember and wish her well.

From my apartment: rioting + National Guard during the aftermath of the George Floyd shooting.

 

I own a house in the midwest and recently got a spirit level for some repairs. However, I don't stay here in the winter - I go south where it's warmer. Can I leave my level here in the house? temps will probably get down to -30 or so.
