fantasy place to live

After 10 years of living in my tiny casita , I lost my work space for my art ..... my fantasy is that I can find a 2/1 with few or no steps , maybe a small garden , and I would use the extra bedroom for a studio.... this would be for myself , a busted up 75 year old Marine living on a small pension ,and two cats that sleep and observe ... furnished .. ability to drink the water and flush TP down the toilet would be a plus
the dream might include living on an estate that had the above casita .... still handy and have all my tools .... I would need internet and TV access
I drive a "chocolate" so I will be spending my remaining savings on a serviceable Mexican car so I don't have to live near downtown Ajijic
AND ALL THIS FOR 5-600 USD ........LONG TERM ... OK , laugh but I felt I would ask all my old friends on the board ... who knows fantasies are sometimes fulfilled

found it !

Congratulations! Can you find one for me?

hard to do .....I stood in line and gave them a cash deposit ..... have to check all the rental sites hourly .....
it's a career move

So where are you living now Gravy?

rio bravo and Ocampo ... 193 A .. estate with 2 casitas .... 500 usd .... on demand gas hot water ... great new kitchen . .. carport ....... elect gate ...washing machine ....... big long porch that I can drink my coffee and huge yard to fly my new drone .... cats welcomed .......super nice "landlords " .... ceiling fans....... I can drive Ocampo to to town so I'll keep my "Chocolate" a while longer .......
best part is I can finally unpack those boxes from 10 years ago when I arrived .....
will need a couch , loveseat, recliner ...coffee tables....kitchen counter bar stools so donations appreciated
will be able to have people over without being cramped

Good for you Gravy! How did you find this place? Did they respond to your post here?

looking at the rental sites hourly and jumping on it ....... rentals have gone crazy.....

Wow. Well sounds like you scored. Good for you.

thanks ..... gonna take a lot of contributions to make it a home

You'll do fine, nesting is the fun part. The thrift shops have great deals.

I will have 4 bar stools available next week that you can have. I have PM'd you.

thanks .......need everything

Giovanna ...... the site hates me can't pm at the moment .......please email me at gravyinmex@gmail.com

Congrats Gravy! Do you need dishes, plates or coffee cups? If memory serves me I believe I gave you a shoehorn a few years ago. Take care.

bowls would be nice

Gravy, I sent you an email this morning. Let me know if you have received it. You might have to check your junk folder.

giovanna ........ nothing in spam or inbox .... gravyinmex@gmail.com
thanks

Hmmmm......that is very strange........I used the same email address. I resent the message.......try my address: ruckzuck98@hotmail.com.

I want to thank all you guys for all the good wishes and help during my transformation to a new place .. you are all great and I appreciate your support
while I'm on a roll ,I'm going to risk asking you for more favors .....I still need the following and am looking for CHEAP OR FREE ........
1) a working laptop or tablet that I can wi fi with on my porch while drinking my coffee in the morning
2) a computer table
3) a used wheelchair ( mine blew a tire )
4) a nice couch and loveseat .....hey a recliner (while I'm at it )
....for those who know me , I now have space to return to my art and will try to earn more ribbons from the ASA judged show ........
you guys have been great and I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask ...
thanking you all in advance

Gravy, it's hard to find good useable free wheelchairs, the demand is far greater than the supply. Wouldn't it be better to just fix the wheel/tire on the one you have?

tried that ....... everywhere I went just wanted to sell me new chair ........ said they didn't have wheels that would fit and Basbi ... soup/cereal bowls would work ......thanks to everyone !
