Well, my landlady and her husband where just down here a bit ago and she has given me a verbal notice to leave. I have asked for a written one and for 3 months. I may get the written one but not sure about the three months.

Haven't got a clue as to what I will do.

Well, here in the states (or at least in LA) you can stall an eviction by calling code enforcement on the landlord. After all, what have you got to lose?

Good luck on the possibility of the new place Brenda, especially in light of this.

I know it's probably not what you want to hear, but as an outsider looking in I think this is the best thing for you in many ways. Your landlady is a miserable piece of work that is toxic to your life. Your living conditions are deplorable. By all rights, she should be jailed or at least heavily fined for that.

I know we don't really know each other, but you seem like a survivor to me. That being said, I know full well myself how you can continually put up with mounting crap and living with your new normal because of how scary it can be to make a change. I've done that several times in my life until I'd gotten to the point that I was broke or even in debt, and everything around me was just shit.

I believe that this is the catalyst you needed.

I know that you're probably scared right now. I'm not going to tell you that you shouldn't be, but I know that you're going to be alright.

I believe this. I believe you're a lot stronger than you think that you are.

You're going to look back on this one day and we can laugh about it. :)



Do Right, Be Right. :)

I will look more into that stuff. Got things to do today. One stop I can ask at and possibly another.

On the one hand it is a relief that the hammer has dropped but you are right I am scared. I'm over 50years old and by myself.

Thanks Jack. I know I am strong as I survived a brush with death 30years ago. (brain tumour). I've lost my dad first, my mom, who I looked after through 2 bouts of cancer the second taking her. My Blair.

This is the longest I have been anywhere since looking after my mom.

Stopped on my way back to get my mail and my landlady was leaving and she said, "You are looking for housing right."

I answered yes.

And now starts the harassment that every time she sees me, she will ask me if I am moving and if I am looking for a place.

Speaking of rain it poured last night. Heading out to do laundry on a wet, soggy day.

I would be so tempted to tell her something nasty, on your behalf. It makes me angry how you're being treated.

That is very tempting on my end but it will only end up in a shouting match which I don't have the energy for. She's done that three times now and with my birthday in a couple of weeks, I will be checking the mail more, so if she sees me.....

I don't sleep until the wee hours of the morning because my brain won't shut down enough.
