Ok, I'm not going to go in to great detail of recent events here.
Suffice to say my previous housemate screwed me out of about $1000, and since my ex and I split up things have gone steadily downhill. I've tried craigslist, the newspaper, myspace, etc to no avail.

This is a long shot, but, I'm looking for a house mate, I'm about 30 or so minutes from downtown Tampa. The house itself is 2 bedrooms with a shared bath. The bedroom is fully furnished, Decent sized back yard, garage, etc. It would run you $550 a month and that includes utilities / internet. I really don't want to lose my house, So if you're at all interested in relocating to South Florida let me know. As an added bonus you'll be helping out a fellow 2gnt'er in the process. (And you'll have an extra pair of hands for all of those repairs and upgrades ;) )

If I were still a bachelor and wasn't entrenched WW1 style here in Colorado I'd move down there to help you out.

Good luck, dude.

I appreciate it guys, I really do. Even if someone knows someone and can put me on the right track, I'd be much obliged.

I've been looking to move to Florida for the past couple years, but I don't thing you need the wife and kids to come with me.:D My brother-in-law lives in Bradenton and is looking for a place to live that's not with his dad.
