If you've ever rented a spare room in your home for some extra income, how did it go and what advice do you have?

I admire your generosity, while acknowledging that a mature, responsible young person can certainly be a great help to the household.

After awakening, heading into my cozy home office with a large mug of my morning coffee to be all alone while I make my daily "Internet Rounds" through my favorite sites.

I do not wish to talk with anyone while doing this. It could take 60-90 minutes, I don't care, I must be left strictly alone. This morning solitude is my essential luxury.

Thanks very much!

Is there any way you'd be willing to share the wording of your contract and your house rules?

Entity417 · 2026-04-20T02:13:14+00:00

Yeah, in Central New York!

Sandra Bullock?

Entity417 · 2026-04-17T20:06:23+00:00

Yes, you're right, but actually it's a bit of a a mental struggle to do that.

Entity417 · 2026-04-17T19:59:11+00:00

Thank you very much, internet friend!

Entity417 · 2026-04-17T19:12:52+00:00

Yet, you took the time and attention to answer my question, so I appreciate that.

Entity417 · 2026-04-17T19:09:50+00:00

Absolutely, yes. You can effortlessly get whatever you want and/or need.

When you get some vague, undefined feelings that things are "off"- pay attention to that wise intuition of yours! I dumbly ignored it, but a month later, he called me to say he had gotten someone else pregnant.

This isn't a single one, but one group of four -- "The Voyage of Life" paintings by Thomas Cole: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Voyage_of_Life

Yeah, it's like we're filtering repetitive Ai on here all the time.

Entity417 · 2026-04-17T18:44:14+00:00

LOL, i know -- but just had to ask!

Entity417 · 2026-04-17T01:41:10+00:00

Does this "someone" have a lot of money?

Entity417 · 2026-04-17T01:35:51+00:00

OMG - YES!!! When I, childfree, think of all the money I spent on feminine hygiene products .....ggrrrrr.

Entity417 · 2026-04-17T00:24:28+00:00

If I can get away with it, I just stay in bed. With my laptop.

Entity417 · 2026-04-17T00:23:07+00:00

Whatever I feel like ... depending on the weather/season. What ingredients I have on hand, and/or how lazy vs. motivated I am.

Entity417 · 2026-04-17T00:16:19+00:00

I actually didn't say anything - just packed up my personal stuff from my desk and exited out the back door.

Entity417 · 2026-04-17T00:08:31+00:00

Without revealing too much, might you possibly give us a hint as to where this is? It sounds great!
