Our Success
We shared a house for 3 1/2 years with a friend and never had any problems. Designate shelves in the frig (door also) for each person's belongings. Label items that might be placed in a community area (large milk jugs, etc) with a permanent marker. As far as the laundry room goes, each person purchases their own supplies. Place a calendar in the laundry room to sign-up on or just designate one day of the week for each resident (you have Saturday, she has Friday). Sharing a living space can be beneficial, financially and spiritually. It is always nice to have someone to watch a movie or share your day with.

Talk About Money First
I had a roommate for 1998 in a 2 bedroom townhouse where we shared all but bedrooms. Please make sure to charge a deposit (even if it is a friend) equal to the amount of your homeowners/renter's insurance deductible. I walked in one day to a dripping ceiling where she left the upstairs sink on full blast and then went to work. Needless to say, I was not happy. This will give you the monies so you are not left to come up with them yourself. Also, decide on splitting the utilities, or allowing for them in whatever rent you charge. I did a flat fee, plus long distance. I still ended up paying some of the phone, so either have a second line installed, or put a long distance code on your line [eg. pressing 01 for your calls and she pressing 02]. This makes things very equal, as she frequently called friends and I send e-mail or handwritten cards.
