Would prefer to write a post on how we cleared 8 to 12 inches of snow at 4 locations in 4 hours, but that's not going to happen.

That alone doesn't look like it would be enough to make up for the height difference(the decking only adds about an inch) so you might need to add some 2x4's to the surface of the stoop in addition to the 2x10's on the side and screw the decking on top of those.

Not sure how many major rain events you get in Oklahoma, but if its one of those several inch per hour types, I bet you have several inches of standing water on that roof.

You enter the house through the front door on an elevated foyer, then step down six inches into the living room. 

They are still there waiting you out.... . a) 3 5 gallon buckets with six inches of water and 3 of these https://www.amazon.com/PLANKY-...   

Your could even take a pre-made cabinet and cut the depth down to 6 inches and put it over the electric box. 

. $15 per 100 foot of 3/4 inch, but the fittings and such can literally double the cost.

They come measure and give you a free sink, and the 4 inch backsplash really makes the entire room sparkle.

The front lip of the Snow Bucket can be tilted straight down to the ground and used to scrape snow away from the buildings.Our snow fall has been about 6 inches, then 12 inches, then 4 inches. 

Im looking at the code and the legality of tiny homes.You dont need a permit to build a one-story detached accessory buildings used as tool and storage sheds, playhouses and similar uses, provided the gross floor area does not exceed a set amount of square feet, the plate height does not exceed a set feet in height above the grade plane at any point, and the maximum roof projection does not exceed certain amount of inches.
