Decisions about Life

I've spoke before that I'd like to buy an RV in my "I want to be a Gypsy" post. The problem is DH hasn't been very supportive of the idea. When I ask if he feels it's a good idea he just shrugs and says he doesn't know. So that has made me hesitate to really do anything about it. I don't want to force the issue if it's something he really doesn't want to do or would regret doing. And before anyone suggests I have a heart to heart with him and just ask, I have. And I still get the shrug and an, "I don't know".

So maybe I should just take the hint that it's not something he wants to do? Or maybe, he's just like a leaf blowing in the wind right now and isn't being the "leader" and I need to be? He did give me permission to post the items I'd need to sell on Ebay, but I feel like I might be forcing him to get ride of stuff that means a lot to him. I'd be happy to sell my wedding ring and other jewelry first, but it wouldn't be enough.

I just don't know what to do, but know we need to do something. Everyone is getting tired of living so closely. This isn't going to work for much longer and we've already put in applications for other places to live to no avail.

I want to be a Gypsy

Living with my mother and then in March moved in with my MIL has gave me a whole new appreciation for MY household. I took it for granted before. I had forgot what it's like to live with other people and not be the "Top Mom" of the house. I keep looking on Craigslist at RV's for sale. There are a lot of them around here and for what your buying it's actually pretty cheap. Problem is we have two cars that wouldn't pull them.

I've told DH that I'd love to sell one car (IE The crappy car he bought earlier this year that I hate and wish he'd never bought), and try to get a truck to pull a camper with. DH has a collection of Kiss and Comic books that is well over 2K. Maybe we could find someone to trade.

I just really want out of this house and into our own space again. I think living like a Gypsy could be fun! Hell and maybe it would unplug us for a bit and get us into doing something more nature like. DH hates fishing and camping but I love it.

I see this as an inexpensive option but I think DH thinks I'm just joking. I'm really not! Though camping in winter might not be the best of options, it would certainly work!

What do you think? Doable solution or am I crazy?
