Live your life, but feel bad doing it

Ah, if things just worked out.

In light of Kevin having to move soon (and many, many other reasons I have) I think I'm going to try and find a third person to join Kevin and I in my 'condo, sweet condo.' Though I own it, I don't know if I would real call it 'home.'

It's nice living with very little financial obligations. I have enjoyed the ride, but I suppose it's really time for it to end. It's a lesson learned, I guess. I'm not sure exactly where all my money has gone, but the majority of it has certainly not been material things because, as I look around my room and think to where 'things' may be, I notice I have very little to show of any recent monetary deductions. I know a lot was to Julie, car payments, credit cards, and various other surprise expenses. It does make me wonder how I will get by with splitting a mortage and utilities again, but I hope I'll be able to more closely watch my money since I am the only one spending it. This is, of course, what I assumed would be the case after separating, but with the surprise expenses it's proven to be harder to keep track of than I originally thought. I suppose this will just be all the more reason to me to track everything. This is why I like cash: withdraw $50 and it doesn't matter exactly what it goes to, but you know your bank account has 50 fewer dollars in it. Anyway, I'm sure I'll find a way to manage my money in a better way. Or, rather, track it to an extensive degree.

I haven't really discussed this with Julie, but I am 99.9% sure she will be okay with me moving into the condo in her stead, relieving her of such a financial burden. The only way I feel I could do this, however, is if there were indeed someone in addition to Kevin and me.

Having said all that, if anybody knows of someone who may be looking for a place, please let me know. I would really like to help out not only Kevin, but Julie as well.
