Household problems

The larger house you have the more problems you face. This is natural phenomenon. People, who live in flats have less household problems than those, who live in big private houses. It is very easy to live in a flat, because you have minimum household responsibilities. Unlike living in flats, private houses need constant care. The most vulnerable are always roofs. They are exposed to all negative impact of bad weather. Then come basements. They suffer from impoundment and moisture. There are many other problems, I think they are familiar to those who live in private houses and there is no need to enumerate them. Blocks of flats can face similar problems but the main difference is that in private houses you have to solve these problems yourself and blocks of flats thee problems are solved by special services. Only very rich people can afford living in private house without any serious problems. First of all their houses are solid and don’t require frequent preventive repairs. Besides, they can hire any specialist in this sphere and not to think about their problems. As for me I like to live in a flat. The matter is that I have never lived in a private house and have never had a lot. I don’t like big houses. I think that they are inconvenient. I prefer a small flat, where I won’t spend much time for cleaning rooms and play as host.

Home sweet home

I like sitting at home very much. Yes, I am a real stay-at-home. I am always reluctant to go to a café, disco club, for a walk and so on. It is very comfortable and convenient to stay at home. I wonder why so many people don’t understand it. At home everything is at hand. You can do what you want and have a good time. For example, you can watch TV, read a book, cook something and so on. When my friends offer me to go to a café with them I mostly refuse. I can understand this pleasure of sitting among other unacquainted people and drink beer or something else of this kind. Besides, nobody likes to be out of doors when the weather is bad. The weather is changeable and can spoil in a minute. You may think that there will be a nice sunny day when you leave your home and later it turns out that it rains and you haven’t taken an umbrella with you and walk back home wet through. Again, this is an additional argument to stay at home and avoid going out. The weather at home is always nice and your plans won’t be thwarted. Besides, I don’t understand people, who like to go to the cinema. Of course, it is good when you see a movie on a large screen and the sound is perfect and so on and so forth, but as for me, watching a movie at home is also much more advantageous. At home I can cook the food I like and enjoy it. When you are in a restaurant, you have to manage with food you are offered. Nobody will ever be able to persuade me that there is a place better than my home.
