You didn’t! Another commenter offered that in their neck of the woods, there are older single women looking for real estate. I was just pointing out that US law lets you be selective with roommates, but not with leasing out the property or selling. (Laws in the UK are different, for example) Not meant to be rude or…

Umm... I don’t know where you are, but in the States it is against the law to discriminate by gender, race, or sexual orientation in housing transactions. Roommates, yes - renting or leasing the whole property, no.

You can hire a property management company. They market your house, vet possible tenants (background and financial checks, etc), take the rent and handle any repairs/maintenance. There’s an up front fee and a percentage of the rent they charge monthly (usually 8% in my experience.) With a PMC, all the headaches of…

This gif is brilliant and I feel this way on a daily basis.

Hey Jezzies! I usually don’t get to read SNS until Sunday morning, so here I’m actually on time and can ask a question!

Definitely on my list! It looks magical.

If it helps, he’ll be a convicted felon and will no longer have the right to own or possess a firearm.

After surgery for kidney stones - and if you are in the know, you know the pain is excruciating and it’s weeks of agony - I just got the stone analysis and suggested restrictions on my diet from my surgeon.

Huh, I’m not sure if we have a ‘native’ food. Maybe Tex-Mex? It’s a unique style of Mexican food which (unfortunately) I’ve never found in all my moving around outside Texas.

Seriously. I went to UT too, and Waco was the wide spot on I-35 that told you you were half way to Dallas.

Fair enough, but I don’t think sarcasm has a place in official court filings. Just me tho!

Hey I know this is really late in the day when it comes to SNS, but I was thinking about your question this morning. I know I offered some general groups/tunes, but now I think I came up with a song worth sharing, which can influence your thinking and your life:
