Several people have now come to see the house and some of them actually want to live here! A couple of them seem fine, and I will probably sign one up in the next few days. I am thinking of doing it on a 3 month trial basis, see if we get along, if I can stand it, if neither of us stabs the other in the eye with a fork.
It is obvious to me that I really don't want a roommate, of course. I want to live alone. I want my own space, my own peace and quiet, my own solitude. We all know I am somewhat of a hermit and that's the way I like it. But financially it makes more sense to stay here and pay half the rent on the house instead of moving and paying an extra $350 per month for a tiny little apartment.
But still....... having to reconfigure my lifestyle for the sake of money bugs me. Yes, it's what we all have to do during our lives, but I don't have to want it. I want what I want. The fact that I can't have what I want is really not even a topic of conversation, except in my own head.
Right now the house is very clean and Jenn has been gone for the weekend so it is very quiet. I like it very much.
More to follow, I'm sure.
