This sweet senior girl needs a home.

I love peace and solitude. I enjoy walking labyrinths, smelling the roses, and taking photos in nature. I work from home as an artist (digital photo art, etc.) and as a bookkeeper. I am 69 years old, am on social security, and have a few bookkeeping clients for some income. I am quiet, spiritual (not religious), and am happy being alone. I am curious, love to explore new areas, and find serendipity along the way! My friends think I am very humorous, optimistic and a great cook!

I have lived alone for 5 decades, single, never married, and no children. In the past I have had many 4 legged furry children, dogs and cats. Even though I have lived alone for many decades, I am very adaptable to new environments, but having compatibility is a must when it comes to the thermostat in the home. I always run hot, so I am most comfortable at 68-70 degrees during the day and sleeping at 66-68 degrees. I am very sensitive to all perfumes, and strong cleaning products, etc. I have allergies so I do best with central air conditioning, and prefer not to open my windows.

I found myself in a precarious situation having lost my leased condo in Sedona, Arizona when my landlord decided to sell it in May 2021. Since I could not find another affordable rental in Sedona, I had to sell or donate most of my possessions and move across the country to Long Island. I stayed with my brother for 9 months, and in March 2022, I realized my dream and moved to Colorado. I currently have a month to month temporary house-share in Arvada, that I got on Silvernest. I really like the area so I have decided to begin looking for my "forever home" here. I am open to surrounding areas too.

A little about my history:
I grew up in Buffalo, NY, left in 1977, moved to California and lived in the Santa Monica area for 30 years. Moved to Portland, Oregon in 2005 and bought a home, lived there until I moved to Sedona, Arizona in 2013. That's my story!

I find housing costs have skyrocketed, and I cannot seem to find an affordable rental, so I considered Silver Nest Roommate finder. It would be great to find a "Golden Girls" situation, maybe become friends and share meals sometimes, etc. Also, to find a great like minded (liberal politics, please no fox TV) housemate, so I am open and flexible to see what the Universe brings.

I am vaxxed & boosted and am very respectful of people, and still wear my mask shopping or in crowds of people indoors.
