Oh and me are planning to co habit
In the next few months but it's starting to get stressful as logistically we don't know how.
I own a 2 bed house, regular size. I have 1 dd who is with me 50:50. Oh has two DC, 3 nights a week.
We can't buy a new house due to his ex wrecking his credit - plus I'd not rather make such a massive commitment until we've at least lived together first. Plus I don't think i would just want to buy in my own name.
Due to the days we each have our children, there are only two crossover nights when we have all three.
I don't want to rent my house out because everyone I know that's done that has had problems with tenants etc.
So how do we logistically do it? My oh suggested putting his DC's bunk beds in our room and putting their toys in storage units in our room.
We did wonder about putting a conservatory on and making that a living room/playroom and then changing the current lounge in to our bedroom, with oh's DC having the big bedroom? But then they'll have a massive bedroom to themselves.
Or we do put the bunk beds in my room and still have conservatory but that had storage for toys etc.
Sorry to ramble on, just can't get my head round it all? Don't want everyone to feel as they though are camping!
We said we'd try something for a year as hopefully the credit situation will be better
