Well friends, it looks like I might get a roommate. I am a little nervous about this but ultimately I think it could be a good thing. I have been thinking about renting a room for some time. It has been a little tricky because DD still comes home, and that is what I would consider the "extra" room in my 3br house. My son's old room is my office, and I have the master BR and attached bath.
My GF who lives nearby told me of a man she knows who is looking for a place month-to-month while he gets his life organized after/during a separation. I don't know any of the details of his R situation, but we met along with his 9 year old boy. They both got along great w/ Argo and the boy seemed very happy and loving with his dad.
One thing that I think would be good is that he is a handyman type and he said he would be willing to do work in trade. This is actually something I have been wanting for a while!
We are going to meet later this week to draw up a terms and conditions agreement.
I am nervous but hopeful that it will work out for the best!
