Living with housemates for the first time in my life since I first lived alone at age 19.
Having room mates in your 50’s is challenging after decades of having your own home.
I never wanted a room mate when I was 18 let alone 50 something, I’m coping and we all get along fine, have a lot of fun but…..they drive me nuts with their sloppy habits.
A couple of uber bright, educated people in their mid-late 40’s that have the house keeping habits of preschoolers. lol
Seriously, when they cook it is like a couple of 6 year olds. I am not kidding, I dread when they cook because there will be crap strewn from one end of the kitchen to another.
Cheese graters with cheese stuck all over the counters, like 5 cutting boards full of stuff, food dropped on the floor, the range top covered in weirdness, pots and pans tossed in the sink full of crap.
They kick off their hundreds of pairs of shoes right in front of all the doors in the house so you trip over them every time you set foot in the house. They NEVER put food away either, and I am always going behind them and putting stuff back in the fridge. Drives me insane!
They keep saying that my influence is helping them to become more conscientious but I don’t see it happening. lol
