My son asked if I wanted him to come over and I told him I would ask hubby and bubby said he can come tomorrow and we will have a roast. So I asked him if he also wanted to come for breakfast and to let me know. I haven’t heard or read anything from him yet so I figure he had another sleepless night. So I will wait. I hate waiting for things especially when someone doesn’t finish a fix it job totally. Then they wonder why it’s damaged or broken.

Onto something else....

I am still thinking about what more i can do to see if I really do have a mold problem and where it originated from. As far as I can see I know of three places and each one it seems to be getting worse. I do think or am pretty sure the mold is in places i can not see but I can’t take anything off to see for sure and the landlady won’t because she thinks it’s not a big deal or she thinks it’s too expensive to fix.
So what I want to do is call someone and ask questions and see if I have any options that I can afford. Because so far what I have read it’s $25.00 a square foot and I got about 3 feet in one place and another two feet above the toilet and a wall and a bit in the laundry room because there is particle board being used as a wall and it has holes in it because it was made that way.
The only question I have is how can any of this mold be my fault when it was water damage and cords were broken and the water came from somewhere else because of the rain or watering flower pots? The cord that had to be replaced had a crack where it screed on to the opening where the water comes out and how am I suppose to know it was cracked if I am never looking at it because stuff was in there? And I also didn’t know that the shelf was warped until I took my stuff out and saw the black on the edges of the board. And the other thing there is a crack in it and I think it’s a cover to cover up the pipes in the ceiling near the toilet.
The thing I don’t get is why any home doesn’t get inspected at least once a year to look for these kinds of things and to make sure the damage isn’t going to be expensive to fix.
The landlady told me that she can’t afford to get me a new vanity and fix the problem because I am not paying enough rent. I think that is bull shit because I figure every landlord has a fund for things like this and I also think that insurance would sometimes cover the repairs.

I really don’t know what to do. Because everyday that this isn’t fixed I worry about hubby’s and mine breathing issues and what else can happen because things don’t get fixed.
And if I argue too much about this the landlady will ask me to leave and I really can not afford to move or pay rent somewhere else because it will defiantly cost more and everything will not be included.
But the one thing I am doing is making sure hubby and I and anyone who comes over knows about the issues and can decide if they want to stay or not.
The thing I don’t get is why not have someone take a look and see how bad the problem is and then decide from there what should or shouldn’t be done. I wonder how much that would cost?

Onto something else…

So to nights dinner is going to be pork chops and red potatoes and carrots or frozen vegetables. Not very exciting but it’s food that goes in and then comes out and maybe it will even taste good?
Well I just got off the phone with a company but for them to come and tell me if it’s bad enough or not will cost $150.00 and I will have to ask hubby because I can’t afford to pay that and not even 1/2 of that.
I feel like such a heel because I think this is important and the landlady doesn’t and I am afraid I am going to end up really sick and maybe die because of this.

I hate cheap people.

Well, I need to get some things done so I will stop here…

Do have a great day…
Be Kind, Be Calm, Be Safe and Behave.
