So here is the story

Nov 12, 2011 12:17

FB is a bit too public so I'll give the background here. I am getting rid of most of my stuff because I am leaving my parents house, ideally by thursday but definitely by the 23rd ( Read more... )

Isn't Turk looking for a new roommate? I thought rent at his place was fairly affordable.

Unless its about $150/month utilities included, I won't be able to afford it yet.

I am sorry we don't live closer dear. We just had a room open up here. :( Is there anything I can do for you?

Thats for the support. Its ok. Nothing I can think of at the moment, unless you can get me some new patients, or have a connection to a college on LI I can teach at, or some other similar job :)

Your timing sucks... turkchief November 13 2011, 03:32:43 UTC

We don't have an open room. Judd snapped up Mahoney's old one. But even if it was open, it's $440 a month plus utility's, which work out to about $150, and that's about average for most of the places I know of. I will keep and ear open for openings amongst the crew...

Re: Your timing sucks... thevirtualjim November 13 2011, 03:39:22 UTC

yea, ty though. Pretty much the deal is this: I NEED to be away from my parents house AND I can not afford to rent anywhere at the moment. I am resolving this by living out of my car, office, and a storage room. I actually feel happy/a load of my mind when I think about it. It may not be optimal, but I think it will be ok, and maybe be the kick in the butt I need to push things to the next level.

And threats and ultimatums have always made me take action, so I think that was a bit of a help from my dad. :)

I get that, still, don't forget the crew is a resource. I will keep an ear open regardless...TC

cool, ty.

We briefly e-mailed re;this.

I'd offer storage space or help if we could. This will be chaotic at first I'm sure, but in the end it will be better off being away from the parentals.

I can only try to keep an ear out for utterly cheap places or refer potential clients to you.

Honestly, during my insane breakup last year I pondered moving back in with my family. but I can never go home again, it's just not an option for my sanity or place in the family. I hope you find that you never have to return and that things build up from here.

Well right now I have a 6 yr old business I am trying to make more successful. I also don't have any money at all to make a move, let alone rent a place, spend time setting up a brand-new practice, etc.

Bravo on coming to a hard decision and acting on it.

Let us know if you need a place to shower.

Thanks man.
