That gives us both quiet time (I usually get the Irish Wolfhound with me). Our computer workstations are close to each other but she is in the passenger seat facing forward and my desk is on the street side wall across from the coach so as long as we keep the speakers off or use headphones (as previously mentioned) it works well. Also it helps to divide the duties, especially on travel days so you aren't tripping over each other. I take care of getting the outside of the coach ready and she takes care of the inside. We both choose activities/events to attend so we can both get in some things we want to do. Make the small space work for you instead of against you. I was happy with the full-time life, the wife was more than ready to get back to a sticks and bricks house. So after 10 years of living in our RVs, we now keep it beside the house.
Full-timed for 10 years? Wow that's impressive Michael and Georgia! I would guess if you did it for that long you'd have to be "best friends". Dividing the duties sounds like a prefect idea. Thanks a lot for replying with such helpful reply.
