I’m a 59 years young artist who is single and works at home. I rent a house, and I keep thinking how much more fun it would be to live like “The Golden Girls”, with like minded, intelligent, funny women, who are independent, but would all live together, for mutual companionship, love and support. Kind of like a mini commune, where life was less alone, and more fun. What do other women out there think about that, and how would I pursue making my vision a reality?

I used Noxzema from the time I was old enough to wash my own face, all through school and into adulthood. Then I decided it wasn't 'sophisticated' enough and went with higher priced, higher end products. About 5 years ago, I went back to

I’m responding to my own comments. I’m going to form a support group in my home. It’s going to be a place where anyone can come with the challenges they’re facing, and get support, ideas, comeraderie, empathy, understanding, or anything else they need. It’s not going to be a group to complain, but to problem solve, and to KNOW that in every situation there is opporotunity. We need each other, and no one of us are in this all alone. What happens to you affects me, so I believe in lifting the love and vibration of all. I am doing this because I need the love and support!
HI SUSAN, I THINK THIS IS YOU. JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW HOW MUCH I SUPPORT YOUR IDEA. HOW DO PEOPLE KNOW WHERE YOU ARE?

I think that’s a great idea! If I were single, it’s just what I would do. I’m also an artist, 72 years old and married, so it’s out of the question for me. I think you should start with the friends you know, and ask them to suggest others that they know. You could also advertise but that’s might be kind of iffy. What about singles organizaations? There might be someone there who would be interested. Good luck to you!

I really like the idea of communal living, especially as I get older. I think it’s a viable alternative to a “retirement” community (which are expensive as hell) and could work well for those who would benefit from combining resources with others (e.g., those who are broke like me ;->) A barter situation could be set up for various chores, there would have to be some ground rules and I’m not opposed to having people of either gender in the house.
I like your idea of artists doing this, as they have a common goal. I’m an artist as well, but the main way I’d pitch myself to a group would be to offer my culinary services
as I LOVE to cook and wouldn’t mind playing chef for a group of people who would like gathering around a table once a day to share stories & good food & wine.
I think it would be wonderful, if you are alone ,join so clubs or take some classes and find people with like interest and work it out and live together, I think it would be fun and a whole lot cheaper.
I think this ‘idea’ of female communal living is becoming more and more common. I wrote a novel for the NaNoWriMo competition last November which was ‘futuristic female controlled communal living with females in one compound and males in another. My friend has done architectural drawings of a female communal home. So I can say my friend and I are definately interested in starting communal living. However as we live in Canada and I am assuming you live in USA we may have to start our own.
