that sounds yummy to me!
After convincing myself that I’m not in a reality show, I spent part of the morning analyzing how the insane circumstances involving this property came to be, with the owner and myself not knowing what transpired with the lease transaction in between signatures.
After combing through the facts, and the things I’ve been told by a realtor, construction and maintenance people, etc, I’m sure I don’t want to be the one of the owner’s kids who brokered this deal, apparently under less-than-truthful circumstances-after talking with the couple yesterday, it is obvious that this began with a grudge, and is escalating into an all-out war now that the truth has begun to surface. And that is without my repeating any of the stuff I was told, which I’m really not willing to do without an attorney-let them shoot some other messenger, not me...
so the issue is between the owner and his kids? I am sorry i wasn’t around yesterday to commiserate over your amazing saga of INSANITY over there!
The lunch sounds delicious-it was all I could do to eat my usual fruit/yogurt/sunflower kernels and coffee breakfast, with my mind and temper in a whirl and all this stirring up of stuff I wasn’t even aware existed-all I wanted was a peaceful, isolated place to be left alone to get my s*** together and regroup-that is why I paid a high rate for bare shelter in a less-than-safe neighborhood...
De nada-I finally just had to laugh about it...
Apparently it started that way, and escalated with some sort of collusion with one of the realtors, who does not appear to have dealt with anything like this before. I’m going to do some covert snooping, and maybe when I see the owner later today, I’ll have a better knowledge of the situation. There are apparently players/instigators that neither he, his wife or I do not even know. I’ve got some photos to show him, too-this whole thing smells worse than an overflowing septic field.
I was so pleased that the pig who defended mumia voluntarily got kicked to the curb-I just want him to stay there...
i am glad for your sake that he’s nice, bc it would have been a worse nightmare had he somehow been unreasonable and faulted you.
well knowing the arrogance and insolence of the WH, i fully expect him to get a recess appt to that position. and it is far more than just representing Mumia that he’s guilty of. the left is yammering that everyone is entitled to a defense, to a lawyer etc. that is very true, however he was out at rallies defending him and basically questioning our entire system of justice. so we want someone in our justice dept to remake it to HIS version [and that of the LEFT] of justice? right. that copkilling vermin ADMITTED to the murder, and was caught reloading the gun to put another bullet in his head as he lay on the ground dead. NONE of this is open to question.
Mumia is a shibboleth.
Anyone who thinks he is a victim of “the man” is a complete idiot and menace.
Unfortunately that is most (if not all) of the “leadership” of the blacks.
A+++ Thank God. That was outrageous.
it is most of the LEFT regardless of color! they are ridiculous on this. well more ridiculous than their normal full-throated ridiculousness.
Hang in there. This will get straightened out. I pray you will come out fine.
just gave my son the watch your step on Spring break talk. I told him to have fun, be safe, use good judgment and DO NOT drink the last night there bc you have a 6 am flight to an interview and you CANNOT show up reeking of stale booze. i am going to be on my knees for the next week about this. spring break in FL will try a parent’s last nerve. yesterday when we left i told him and his friends that i was praying, and his friend said, yeah, my mom is too.
I do have a lease agreement that I signed in good faith with the person who presented herself to me as the owner’s agent, and receipts-electronic and check-for all rent and deposits-but an unreasonable person would have caused me stress and attorney’s fees as well-a nightmare indeed.
If it gets too sticky, I can-and will-drop the dime on a couple of people involved for wrongdoing and untrue statements I and one of my crew witnessed firsthand. As a matter of fact, you gave me an idea-I’m calling my attorney right now...
I was ready to throw the jerk off a train when I heard he was not appointed to get mumia commuted to life, but had volunteered-that was enough and the rest makes him more worthy of that train toss...
Lmao. I have not heard that joke since 1984!
Vanna, oh Vanna, won’t you buy me avowal?
True.
