Carrot on a Stick

Last night R and I stayed up WAY to late talking. WAY to late. 2ish I believe. I am mucho tiredo.

The subject was living at the barn. The co-owner, we'll call him J, has his gf living at the barn rent free. I was like I would like to live rent free, let's move to the barn. He doesn't want to because he knows i am not their biggest fans and he thinks I would be miserable. Granted it wouldn't be the happiest living arrangement, but living for free in a mansion with tons of land? Ummmm a trade off indeed but might be well worth it. I could quit my job and find a new one closer to the barn, rent my condo and then just pay the difference and, best part, save money and LIVE RENT FREE. He's just not willing to go there.

It irks me that he lets this happen. Rent free. Why is she so lucky? It's annoying. AND the best part IMHO is that she is bringing her dog there to live as well. One of the main reasons that R wasn't moving out there was because J didn't want Tucker in the house due to the gorgeous wood floors and such. But his gf can bring her dog in the house and that's A-OK. Annoying.

I am tired and cranky and annoyed. We went out to a bar last night with a couple of his friends, it was a lot of fun but at the end of the night his friend was talking to him about the barn and how he's getting hosed on the deal. AMEN BROTHER! Alas, R is too nice and these things don't bother him. At all. I hafta let it go but man, it's like a carrot on a stick dangling before my eyes - rent free? Why can't it happen for me?

R assures me that if he buys a house I could live in it rent free. I told him to step it up and get to buying cuz I am ready.

Annoying.

I am going to be struggling to make it through this day. Seriously. I hope I don't snap at my boss. Hell, then maybe we'd HAVE to live at the barn. hehehe

Happy flippin Friday people. I am bitter today indeed.

Okay, now I'm really confused. You pay rent? I thought you owned the condo and would be paying a mortgage? Next question. Somehow I missed something - originally I thought R was going to move into the barn when it was "done." Now you say he's still with you, which is probably a good thing! Is he paying for the barn? Okay, that's enough nosiness from me. I guess I agree with the others - even though living there would be rent free, living will people you dislike could cause tons of stress.

Living with folks you don't like already isn't good. It would drive you nuts for sure. Get some rest hun..I'm sure things will look better then.

Wow, I feel the same way today. Something in the air?

At least it's Friday and soon we'll be enjoying the 2 day freedom from work...
time to get a new job, huh?
Here's to new jobs and living rent free someday very soon!!!

So being slightly out of the loop I have a few quick ??’s.

…J is co-owner with your R?

…enough of a mansion that you may not have to see this girlfriend, too much?


Hm. Okay she gives him kitty and so therefore she gets doggy.

No doubt in more ways than one…oh hush me.

Rent free? Tons of land? Argh... I don't blame you one lil' bit. In fact, I'm feeling bitter for you. Oh well, at least it's Friday...

How does it go up?
comment by spicybitch on July 11, 2008 7:28 AM ()
I know that you don't like her. I tend to agree with R. I know you won't like that but I do. Why? You really don't like them and if you struggle to make it through dinner with them I can see that this would be an immense challege and a very hostile living situation. It's fun to have your own space and not have to worry about you, or R. R cares a lot about, and ultimately wants you to be happy. Remember that, and cherish him, and the life you have.

Sorry Kristy. Don't be bitter, it will age you quickly. It's Friday. Be happy. Make happiness and joy your choice today.
