decisive indecisiveness leads to retraction
A mere 24 hours ago I had almost convinced myself that in the span of two weeks I would be packing up my meager accumulation of "stuff" and making my way to a fantastic, hot, new flat miles in distance and style from the current dwelling in which I reside. Now, however, after a close evaluation of financial resources and potential loss of opportunity that would become essential upon moving I have come full circle, and it is likely that I will not be moving anywhere any time soon.
Known facts:
- Fantastic Hot New Flat is slightly out of price range IF wanting to keep myself in the lifestyle to which I have become accustomed
- Will not get much more than I am living in now for the price originally thought of as acceptable
- Current Dwelling is improving and feels increasingly more "gezellig"
- Current Dwelling is going to be completely empty in December and January, leaving me the entire space to do as wished
-Was actually asked by future roommate of Current Dwelling if I would like to stay on in the new year as she would appreciate having some company
So, in the immortal words of the Dad on My Big Fat Greek Wedding...THERE you go. I figure I will not get more than a shoebox studio for the rent I would like to spend, so why not stay in my Current shoebox studio for free and have access to more space when needed. Plus, was rather flattered that Future Roommate wanted me to stay...a little nervous at what may come about but Future Roommate will be traveling quite often and if I can juggle maintaining Current Dwelling in state that I have become accustomed to, then all should be well.
In all honesty it is kind of a relief. I was feeling quite pressured to find the downpayment and furniture and pack and squelch all feelings of doubt within the next two weeks. Some reading this however may just consider me a sissy!
Am I making the right decision? Decisively indecisively I have no idea.
