I had honestly started to accept that I would be living at home forever, having been previously unable to afford to move out. I had always assumed that renting was dead money and saving for a deposit on a house with a mortgage was proving to be even more difficult, until we stumbled across a gem. Located just five minutes from work, my sister and I will actually be SAVING money by moving out!
I've found myself browsing for things like toasters and kettles: things that ordinarily would not excite me. But now I find myself steering towards the home ware section, scouting the web for nick knacks and essentials for our new home. I'm still in the process of saving for a mortgage with Mike, but for now, living with my sister is a good way for us both to save a bit of money before the next steps in our future. Moll is looking to go travelling next year and we both recognise that the move won't be permanent, which works just perfectly for us both. Change scares me and something this drastic is ultimately petrifying, but then I think that if I just played everything safe then I would be missing out on some great opportunities. Of course I'll miss the comforts of my own home and my Mum, but I think it's about time this 22 year old child grew up and started taking some responsibility for her own life. To the future.
