that’s it my carbon foor print is finally gettin bigger
i’ve lived in staff accomodation for the last 4 years and 10 months, 1 room 4 me, sharing bathroom and kitchen with 3 others (strangers, in and out, no choice, no say)
people think i’ve been mad (they may be right but not on that score)
i’ve had a lovely little room, heat, most of the amenities, an people at work have not been able to work it out at all :laugh_at:
but to my way of thinkin, i’m still very lucky, water out of the taps, central heating, safety, privacy. What percentage of the world’s population get that?
I’m only leavin cause i’m never there any more, always here at my brilliant fellas 😉
so practically its been a no brainer to move on overam chuffed to pieces, have a month to move so no hassle but you know what – i was there yest packin books and i am really gonna miss my place. Its been perfect karma and i’ve loved it.
dont think i’m the one who’s mad, just think i have a little perspective is all
whadda u reckon?
T x :love:
October 16, 2009 at 7:51 pm #1208677i think its great to be so content and joyful with a place :love: and hope the move goes smooth! raaa

October 20, 2009 at 10:07 pm #1208683I don’t really understand? you live in a relatively normal way for someone in the UK, possibly someone who isn’t very well off and possibly a student. But it hardly seems too radical, unless I have totally missed the point?

convenience & emotional tie-in has just been severed?

point taken, 1 room when student or not well enough off not an uncommon way of life.
the point – for someone who’s not a student, is my age and has my income it is an unusual choice. Work mates and friends have been perplexed, some have been down-right rude about it, its become an amusing ‘kink’ that i have apparently, but i have had my reasons.
my feeling is that the less i have the more i appreciate it, money, stuff etc doesn’t make me happy.
And yes i’ve missed my stuff (all my books, my kitchen stuff, a double bed!, my veggie garden) but i figure, well i’ve got that to look forward to.

I wasn’t trying to make a point, was just trying to understand yours. Sounds sensible enough to me, though id go for a room slightly bigger in order to get the bed in.

:laugh_at: yeah i thought about getting a double bed in but it really would have just been a bedroom then
