SRS, the "right" tenant I hope to spot will be using the uni library's computers for their big stuff and printing, because unless they pay for a cable modem they will not have internet anyway. But that is part of the free will thing-- the space is the space is the space.

The space itself will control what can run, just as in the main house we ourselves are limited by unrepaired fire damage from 10 years ago-- all peeps gotta deal with what is. And that is why it's a boundary issue and not a control issue-- my job is to set it up to be as safe as I can make it, guided by what I am sure anyone would need because for 2 months out of the year we live up there part-time and we know what we can use and what we wish we could use. What WILL need to be micro-managed is their supplemental heat if it's a bad winter-- which will work for me because I need the exercise.

As far as the volume of their stuff, that's already covered-- extra storage available ($$) onsite but outside the room itself.


Catters who have been here have found that we prep thoroughly and then enjoy Life Happening. That's the dynamic we hope the tenant will enjoy, and so far the continuing correspondence with Jessica indicates this-- with rent still to be set as appropriate to their unique needs. Right now we're discussing an Oct-May deal paid monthly, her preference.
