Love help: I am giving up and becomming a Hermit

I am giving up and becomming a Hermit

Life is SOOOOOOO stressful! I’m taking 18 credit hours and working 25 hours a week. I can’t keep up with my homework, or my bills. Things just keep getting more expensive everyday. I spend so much time trying to learn to juggle everything, that I never get to see my family or friends anymore. After spending alot of time weighing my options, I’ve decided that the best way to fix it all is to become a hermit. I will be moving into my freshly decorated cave tomorrow. I will be collecting non-perishable food today to last me through the winter and will plant a garden next Spring. Additionally, as much as I love the little animals, I will have to take up hunting (sorry Bambi). No more bills, no more job, no more homework. Just me and my cave.

Sounds like a novel idea! I’ll take the cave to the left and I’m going to look into some solar power :)

you should see if you can find a cave with a hot spring in it or something, then you could have water and water power :)

you know if you started out with a few other people you could make a little community and live kinda like the indians did

Nice idea country girl. A hydroelectric cave. The hot spring would be *very* nice. As for the community of hermits, Miss Enigma is my neighbor and you are welcome to join us.

Two words: Global Warming. My house would probably melt. Better to stay with the traditional stone structure of Hermit homes.

Cave living. Been there done that. Only thing I missed was toilet paper and clean-fresh pillow and pillow case.

I don’t blame you. Can you evade taxes and stuff? Sounds like the ideal retreat. You’ve obviously had this in mind for a while and congratulations for carrying it through.Better than living in a rented house/flat dependent on working/the government

FUNNY!! I have been at that point too. It’s not a fun feeling, but when this stressful time is over, you’ll look back and say, “****, I made it.”….Then just get ready for the next few bumps. I’m looking forward to retirement - in about 23 more years :)
