All's Well That Ends Well (Although It Didn't Seem So At the Time)

We found a place to move to. Hooray!

Or so we thought...

We moved in and after only 2 nights of sleeping there, had a horrific rainstorm and the place leaked like a damn seive! Water everywhere.

Needless to say we moved out the next day.

Had a bit of a confrontation with the landlady about refunding all our money (minus the week we actually were there moving in). In the end, she agreed to refund it. We could have dragged her through court, called the Codes Officer and all that but we really did not want to go that route. After threatening her (nicely of course) she realized that we would win and that the place is not habitable. So, she agreed to give the money back.

So now we are living in a relative's house (it's usually empty so it's good to have someone here) and paying rent to the cousins (which helps them and helps us).

So all's well that ends well.

But I'll tell ya this...I am too old for this stuff!!!! I am so totally whipped it's not even funny. Moving three times in one week is too much for me!

I have ignored writing here because of all the fooferah that's been going on with the move and all. Now am finally situated to where I can pay attention to things again.

Hot here the last couple days. 100 day before yesterday. 90s yesterday. 90s today. Finally thunderstorms came through. Cooled down nicely. It's about 65 out there now! Whew! Relief!

Enough about the trials and tribulations of being a tenant

More later.....
