Did not sleep well last night. My friend and I got into a fight last night. I told him that I went to look at a place that I may want to move to. At first he was alright and then he heard about how much the rent will be. We argued back and fourth about it and then he hung up on me.

And now I'm having second thoughts about possibly making that move. When I woke up this morning, I got thinking; what could happen if I lose my job? I think that the severance pay and unemployment could take care of me for a little while. But if I can't find a job, then I would have to draw Social Security and it's not going to be nearly enough to pay the rent. Social Security could take care of me if I stay at my place now, but barely. I don't have much in my savings.

So I'm concluding that I would have to stay at where I am, no matter how miserable I feel about my place. Or if worse comes to worse, I could move out to the boonies somewhere and retire there. It has some appeal to me because I'd be in an area where I wouldn't have to deal with neighbors. But I wonder if that would good for me? I need a lot of talking to do on this!
