I think we sometimes made up stuff instead of talking to one another like adults. They didn't know how to talk to us. The few times we were up front with them they became rude and abrasive. We were afraid they would take confrontation very poorly again (start yelling again) so we became passive aggressive over time. Let me tell you something. Passive aggressive behavior is contagious. That shit is the worst when it comes to roommates. But, overall, we all have improved our communication skills with one another. As much as possible concerning our personalities.
I saw this on Pinterest (my fav inspirational site).
I think it would be a good thing to make a cake for the roommates on our last day here. I bitch about them a lot but I'm sure I haven't been a peach this past year either. We all have issues. It seems now that Andrew and I are leaving the house, a veil has been lifted that grants all of us to be candid with one another. It's nice. I wish we could have been like this earlier.
Apart from that, I need to get rid of all my old Goodwill and Craigslist furniture in the house right now. I've posted them online for sale. Now I wait. I, also, need to get ready for the yard sale in a week. Money will go towards new adult furniture. New shiny wooded tables and soft cushiony seating that will only be used by Andrew and I and our guests. The money I receive from selling all the crappy furniture should be enough to buy one really nice piece. Things I need to look for for the new home:
Mid-century style coffee table and sofa. |
Furniture with patterns and legs. |
Lots of plants. A kilim rug. |
Even more plants. |
Bright colors and framed art work. |
Hopefully, I won't kill all of these plants. Again.
How am I going to afford this? Bah!
It's late. Need to sleep. I have long fun day tomorrow. EEE!! Can't wait.
