As a result, I am crammed into a small alcove off the kitchen. I think I might just gradually move some stuff in there (like maybe a cutting table) and see if he notices-what do ya think??
Who is he think he can boss you around? course, I know I don't know the whole situation, but I would of filled that room with quilting stuff the first day.
The short story-we put the down payment, and the two boys are paying the mortgage and household expenses. We lived overseas for the first 15 months after buying it, so he has handled everything from the beginning and sort of feels like he is the Alpha male. We live here about 8 months a year and overseas 4 months-they look at it as their house and we live with them part of the year. Anyway, I will be setting up my cutting table in there, and once I establish a foot hold, I'm in!
