Things are happening so fast, my head is spinning...
Today, my partner and I bought this camper together.
That's why the timing was off - we were supposed to buy it together. It was way more than I wanted to spend and so Kent when in on it with me.
We are going to put it on our rural property where we will be homesteading. We have electric, propane, and water there and he is going to pour a concrete pad to put it on so we can go live there as soon as possible. He thinks we will be living out there self-sufficiently by next year this time.
Our neighbor who lent us the bobcat which is a power digger thing- didn’t stand 6’ from us and didn’t mention anything - he was very nice to us- introduced us to the cow he is going to slaughter for us as payment for grazing his cows on our property- I had a heart moment with the cow and asked permission for it’s life so we may eat-spent the day listening to birds and the wind...
We can get the hell out of the city which is horrible to live in right now.
HORRIBLE. CITY. LIFE.
It's prairie out there - no trees really - but there are birds and wildlife and 70 acres at the end of a dirt road and it is "no man's land" because the neighbors did not bring their properties up to code so it is in NO County really - it's unincorporated. YES!
My partner owned a mobile home here in town - he gave me that - turned the title over to me and everything. That's in exchange for me putting money into the property. We are not married, conventionally, nor will we ever be - but that's his way of giving me security.
I am very happy with that - should anything ever happen - I will always have a place to live. This giant mobile and it's lot have the rent of a room in Denver these days, so we can sublet it, keep it and come to town now and then or weekly or sell it - but it's mine.
We are fixing it up - he built me this shed in the back to put my stuff. I still have not moved my stuff out of my old place - he still has to put the metal roof on the building. Maybe Tuesday or Wednesday, then move me on Thursday. Whew!
That will close that chapter of my life with my schizoaffective roommate - @in2itiveart/life-with-a-schizoaffective-alcoholic-is-over - who is doing better - and who I will miss - but I just cannot live with him and plus it is time for Kent and I to set out on our own path - we have been together for 2 years and now it's time for us.
