Guest guest Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Great news for you Val! I don't think I heard why you moved in the first place? Hopefully you haven't unpacked all your boxes yet. It usually takes me a few months to get things put away. EXCEPT........when we moved into our present house, we have been here 6 years and I STILL have unpacked boxes. Mainly because we downsized the house, but not all our stuff!! So I don't have any place to put it all. But.....I am hoping to get shelves and cabinets sometime. lol....soon I hope! Good luck, hope all goes smoothly for you! Blessings and hugs, Jackie Subject: (unknown)To: mserslife Date: Sunday, August 10, 2008, 9:30 PM Hello everyone, Here's a piece of good news. We are moving again. Yepper, that's right. The landlord tried to raise our rent on us and I just wasn't going for it. We have spent this whole summer in this miserable heat and it has effected me in a negative way. No matter how many times we told him about my condition and how it was making me sick again. He just couldn't get it. Surprise...surprise. So when he called Tom Friday and said he was raising the rent $185.00 month. That was the last straw. Listen to this... His excuse for raising the rent was because the electricity had gone up and he needed to be compensated. The electricity went up! Now, who's fault is that? He's the one who controls the stupid thermostat, not us. This whole summer, it hasn't gotten below 85* in the house. So, today I gave our other landlady a call. I asked her if she minded if we moved back with her. Bless her heart. She was actually very excited when I called. I told her we'd like to move in the beginning the first of next month. She says, "Why do you have to wait until the first of the month, why can't you do it tomorrow? I know you've already paid for this month." I explained to her that we didn't have the money to give her for the remaining part of the month and we couldn't pay her until the first. She told me to forget it, she was all too happy to take us in. Now, isn't that special? I knew we should have never left her in the first place. But, being a good wife, (har har) I went against my better judgment. Oh well... that's water under the bridge. I'm so happy now! I just had to share this news with you all. I'm about to explode!!!

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Jackie, We moved the first time because I was being poisoned by mold and the landlord didn't want to make the place livable. But, that didn't stop him from trying to get more money out of us so he could fix his other units. Didn't set well with me. So, we moved in with wonderful lady I call "G". But then her house got forclosed on. So we moved here to the horse farm. I'm not going to talk ugly about my landlord. I'll just say that him wanting to raise the rent, was another breach of our agreement, so we have chosen to move again. "G" moved into one of her rental houses. I wanted to go with her when we first moved, but Tom was afraid that she might lose that place too. Well, the truth is, there's a possibility that she might. But, she said we could move in with her anyway. Now, as we've been talking about our situations which are simular in many ways, we've decided to do the "right" thing and help eachother out. We are going to form a household, so to speak, and combine our incomes to try to save the house. Tom is going to hire her where he works. And since I don't work, I've decided to do my part by taking care of the house while they are at their jobs. But, I know "G" now, and we are very close. And I know she has a very strong faith. And I also know that she wants us there as much as we want to be there. So, I know this will work out. And the great thing about it is there are no strings attached. She's like me in many ways. If she says she's going to do something, she does it. She's a giver, not a taker. And she is very loyal to those she calls "friend". Sorry, long answer to a short question. And about the move. Thank God this place was too small for us to unpack any boxes. Most everything is still packed away. So it shouldn't take us long at all.
