Leaving the nest and increased rent


So Holly's brother is moving out,
Obviously this is a good thing as it means that we will have the house to ourselves and wont have to worry about it being a complete shit tip all the time. The only mess we'll have to worry about and clean up after will be our own.
However this does come with its own set of problems, We will be paying £600 a month rent for the house which considering the size of this house isn't too much of a bad thing but it does need decorating from top to bottom, all of the appliances are shagged and need replacing and the Garden is essentially just a mud pit for the dogs to play in.

Now for £600 a month I could have my own house, Closer to work that's newer, better decorated with much nicer appliances and fixings and this is something we are looking to do. Currently now is the time to buy in the housing market especially with all of the deals the government has going.
It makes me feel sick to think that I'm paying £600 a month to live in a house that I don't want to live in, that in no way belongs to me and needs decorating from top to bottom and is just over an hour away from my place of work.

That means that the one hobby I do have (Driving/Cars) becomes non existent because no fucking person on this earth could maintain a nice car and drive to and from work everyday on top of all the other bills we currently have.

Its one or the other, Happiness and living my life or paying the bills.
Looks like I'll be miserable for quite some time...

At least we've got a month before we have to pay the increased rent from Holly's brother moving out!
