She's already a landlord, her "roommates" pay rent, which pays her mortgage. Very left wing indeed. If she's moving, it must mean her relationship with her tenants worsened to such a degree that they can no longer put up with each other. Pretty much how every single "friend" she's ever had dumped her after a couple months.
Also correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to be an apartment? What about Ziggy? Who apparently gets walked once a day or less because every time she walks the dog she puts it on her "schedule". I can't stop feeling sorry for that poor creature. Bought to serve as a photo prop while he was still a puppy, and now that he's grown and uncontrollable due to getting no training/attention he's just locked up in the house alone. No he won't even have a garden to chill in?
