I am Chris. I share a flat with two colleagues, Sam and Jules. This month has passed quickly, and we have already done more than we planned at the start of September.
We have cleaned the kitchen three times because guests have visited on weekends. Sam has washed floors, Jules has organised cupboards, and I have taken rubbish to recycling bins. We have kept a checklist on the fridge that has helped us stay fair.
We have paid rent and utility bills on time. Jules has transferred his share through an app, and Sam has set reminders that have prevented late fees. I have filed receipts in a folder that I have labelled clearly.
Professionally we have all worked extra hours. I have finished two client reports, Sam has prepared slides for a presentation, and Jules has trained a new intern who has started on the fifteenth. Our manager has thanked the team in a short email.
We have cooked together on Thursday evenings. So far we have made soup, stir-fry, and a vegetarian lasagne. Jules has experimented with spices, and Sam has baked bread that has smelled wonderful in the hallway.
We have exercised more than in August. I have run in the park four mornings, Sam has joined a gym near the office, and Jules has practiced yoga at home with online classes. We have encouraged one another when motivation has dropped.
Socially we have met friends outside the flat. We have watched a film at the cinema, and we have attended a free concert in the square. I have reconnected with a university friend who has moved back to the city.
We have solved minor problems at home. A leaking tap has annoyed us, but a plumber has fixed it after we have called on Tuesday. The Wi-Fi router has restarted twice, yet our provider has sent instructions that have worked.
We have not travelled far, yet we have explored neighbourhoods nearby. On Sunday we have walked along the river path, and we have discovered a market that has sold handmade soap and honey.
Financially we have stayed within budget. Jules has tracked shared expenses in a spreadsheet, and we have discussed purchases before buying non-essential items. Sam has cancelled a subscription he has not used since July.
This month has not been perfect, but we have managed responsibilities and small joys together. We have learned that shared plans have worked when we have communicated openly. Before October arrives, we have already agreed on goals we have wanted to reach next month.
