Sep. 8th, 2009 08:32 pmNibs and I have been going around and around, each of us changing our minds repeatedly about what my post-full time living arrangements are going to be. The constraints:
So here's Der Plan, hammered out with help from our Rad Dyke Marriage Counselor*: I get my own place near the (current) Abbey in about a year and live there for at least a year with an option to move back later. Fortunately, thanks to the recent refi I think we can swing this. There will be a spreadsheet in our future.
*OK, she's more of a regular dyke, but she's got the hair.
- She doesn't want to have to watch my body change.
- She wants me nearby because my son is his jumpenflappen self and she's gimpy.
- I'm more than ready for some space to call my own.
- Oh yeah, we're not rich.
- I do not want to sell the house because
- We've put too much money into it.
- The market isn't going to stop sucking for a while yet.
- The location's too good for all of us.
- Nibs loves it.
