Iโ€™m Looking For Man Who Works Hard, Plays Harder!


Iโ€™m Looking For Man Who Works Hard, Plays Harder - Wants To Have Some Fun!

Hello all you fun-seeking darlings!  Halfway through my Sudbury summer and guess whatโ€ฆ? BIG NEWS!! I have found myself a room to rent and so I will be staying for the foreseeable future.  Renting here is a FRACTION of the cost of renting in Ottawa; considering that I have been able to sustain living out of AirBnbs for a minimum cost of $100/night, averaging about $140 - since mid-April I have easily spent at least $10,000!!  Cutting my shelter cost to $500/month instead of $3000+ means that I will be able to save money and my goal is to save enough for a downpayment to BUY myself a condo in Ottawa.  And yes, Ottawa is expensive and ridiculously so; regardless itโ€™s home and itโ€™s where my family and my 14 year old son are so I will be going back one dayโ€ฆjust not one day soon!

I want to take a minute and thank all of you who have been there for me on my journey!  I have had a few really tough weeks where I was legitimately facing the possibility of being out on the streets with no where to go and no idea where I was even getting my next meal!  But some of you guys went out of your way to bring me pizza, Nestea and/or Skittles and for those occasions I am extremely grateful.  You know who you are and to show my appreciation Iโ€™d like to offer you $40 off your next rendezvous (four being my lucky number ๐Ÿ˜‰).  To those who didnโ€™t know - Nestea and Skittles are my favourites and always a welcome treat ๐Ÿ’‹ 

SOOOOโ€ฆ! Going forward I will be much less often available/able to do appointments same day, within 30 minutes because I will not be hosting from home and will be booking AirBnB/hotels for certain days (and will require some notice.  First to make sure Iโ€™m able to book somewhere to host from and also that it isnโ€™t ridiculously overpriced.   One good thing about booking ahead of time is that you guys can also request a certain area of town thatโ€™s more convenient for you, and if Iโ€™m able to I will make it happen!  After several months of doing the Airbnb thing, through some trial and error - I have compiled a list of some favourites and some do not book agains lol so I am confident when I book somewhere what my stay will be like.  I am also proud to note that my Airbnb guest profile boasts a perfect 5 star rating, every host from 47 stays would welcome me back.    So, that is to say that I am a respectful, quiet guest and I respect others' spaces; leaving them as I found them.

So excited to start setting up my room!  I am still in need of a few things:
A lamp
A tall dresser
Blackout curtains 
Power bar
Hangers
Hooks for the back of my door, to hang coats
Area rug
Aromatherapy diffuser, with lavender essential oil
I Love Raspberry bubble bath
Bath towels
Face cloths
Pillows
Queen size sheets, blankets, duvets 
Air purifier
Full length mirror
Canvases for my walls - would prefer to paint these myself with acrylic paint
I would absolutely love to have a mini fridge for my room but aware that that is a luxury not a necessity lol
Room cooler thing  - there is one AC unit for the whole house, which doesn't quite cool everything but I have been told I cannot have a second unit because hydro would be too high.  Thus, I have come across these little room cooler things that I think would work wonders.
A fan
