I totally agree with your experimenting with the alternative living situations, the château is a good place when you have a partner that is willing to work with you or partners. Finding a smaller place where you have connections with other people seems like a great idea. I am an 81 year old retired clinical psychologist. I am a single person after losing my son and my wife, we all need some form of connectivity and living in a big house alone is not a good idea. In my opinion. Much luck on your new.

I need to mix up some of that natural weed killer for the cracks in my concrete driveway. Hitting the weeds with the string trimmer every 7-10 days is getting old fast! And I live in a 3,000-square-foot house in Florida by myself, and do all my own lawn work. Lots of people tell me the same, that it's too much for just me. Sometimes it can feel a little overwhelming, but I also feel like it's exactly the right size for me. Totally get not ever wanting to live in an apartment again. I love having my little space cushion around me!
