All the things are crossed for you to find something even better, but I'm still mega @@ at that landlord. Like, no, dude, ditching the person who pointed out that your thing is illegal won't make it any more legal.

What amych said. Fie upon him, and crossing all the things for a great new place.

Oh god, Strix -- what a mess.

I'm sorry Strix. May a much better option happen quickly.

Amazing news -- Buddy ran on to the front steps while I was selling my old table and chairs (its own piece of good news), and ran right back in! Phew.

He is well aware what a good deal he has

I do think it helped that it's been raining all day.

Best type of election quandary in my city for elections next month. The commission seats are easy enough but so far I am stuck on the Mayor position. I am confident both are good for the city and have shared interests and concerns, also both competent. One I know because I have been in his home watching one of the debates in a get out the vote gathering for Hillary. A beautifully renovated home in a very sketchy old neighborhood, which kinda shows his commitment to the city. The other I met when she knocked on my front door and we had a nice long chat. The only thing that might give the edge to her is that he seems to have tighter bonds with 'the establishment' which here is developers, also he probably got questions in advance on the debate, which also relates to ties. I have another month to do my research, but it is nice to know we are in good hands no matter what the outcome.

Monday should not = NoNatterday!

Major house sale ~ma Request! We haven't put the house on the market again yet because we were doing this that and the other thing. THEN out of the blue DH's cousin calls and has someone looking to buy in our exact area. Perfect fit. Single dad successful business owner. His child is 4, and the house is on a park where all the kids play with lots of age appropriate stuff. He entertains often for business and my house is perfect for entertaining. His office is a mile away and he knows and loves the area. Cousin is a business associate and he told her he was looking and she is bringing him at 9:30 in the morning. This could be it. This neighborhood is where the doctors, business owners, and other young up and comings all want to live at the moment so I feel really good about it.

Vibes of all manner are appreciated. Poor St. Joseph would also like to be dug up again since he has been out in the yard a long time.

House sale ~ma, Laura! That sounds like a perfect fit!

I haven't gotten a work email in 2 hours. Highly suspicious.
