My House, My Rules
June 24, 2008 by John in Family
My mother is moving in.
The irony has not escaped me. This is the first time I’ve had anyone close (family, romantic interest, whatever) live with me under a roof I pay for. Last time I lived with anyone it was with her, over 10 years ago when I first moved back to Helena (that was only for two months, hint, hint). I’m resisting the urge to create a bunch of rules, but there will definitely be boundaries.
She got a job in Helena and is in the process of moving back here from Great Falls. TEMPORARILY she will be staying with me, while she finds an apartment. I offered up my place because I feel the need to facilitate this change, for her sanity and mine. The job she just left was shit. Most of the people are shit (lawyers, duh). The upper level management is shit (bureaucrats, duh). The stress was insane. The new job should be stress free and is a little more money to boot. As a bonus, the new job is with a State organization so her pension and vacation surplus stay intact.
So, anybody know of a nice little 2 bedroom house or apartment in a quiet neighborhood?
