Landlord by accident and Loving it
Some say that cohousing was a transformative experience for them. For me it was a personal workshop that I would’ve preferred to have done without. However, like everything, I did develop some new skills. Since I ran away rather quickly … Continue reading
My cohousing timeline with a happy ending
Now that I signed the papers yesterday to sell my house to some new owners, I thought I would put together a timeline of my life with cohousing. 2011 – A local group did a presentation at the library about … Continue reading
False Promises but realistic expectation of cohousing
The marketing makes lots of promises with cohousing but there is only one guarantee- you get a house. You buy it or rent it, but that’s the only thing for sure. Other things you will probably get: HOA membership/fees. They … Continue reading

Another One Bites the Dust
I keep thinking about the perfect cohousing. The one that lives up to the hype. This will be your last home (and that’s how many people think as they design their houses and communities). They are almost 10 years old … Continue reading
Why did I move into and want cohousing in the first place?
Flower asked me why I moved into cohousing in the first place. I looked at my first posts and realized I never did write that. So, I looked at my notes and found this draft. I will post it now: … Continue reading
vacation from paradise?
I read an article this week on cohousing. Not sure how old it is but it popped up for me. One cohouser said that sometimes they need to escape and have a vacation but they always like to return and … Continue reading
A Success Story
I like hearing of other cohousing communities. Especially the ones going well. Today I heard of one that is about eight years old (since move in) and all seniors but the only people that have left have left for natural … Continue reading
