Valerie is a 42-year-old, single, Reformed Christian lady who lives in Baltimore. She doesn't remember a time
before she knew and loved Jesus, but she does remember accepting John Calvin into her heart in March of 2000.
Valerie is a member of Christ Reformed Evangelical Church in Annapolis.
Though her career aspiration is to be a housewife, Valerie has not yet found anyone suitable who wishes to hire
her for employment in that field (or, more properly, anyone suitable has not found her), so in the meantime she
earns her daily bread working in communications -- editing, writing, print design and website management.
Prospective Housemate Questions
If you were in the market for a housemate/roommate/boarder, what questions would you ask to determine an individual's suitability?

I'm not sure I could even live with my best female friend, she is so different from me. So, what Margaret said. If you have an authority to help you sort out your differences, that's really the thing, I think. All the rest is grace. ~Eleanor
