It's been crazy...

*Scratches head*- Where do I start? I mean gosh everything has been pretty nuts around here lately.

Let me start with the stress of the renter. See we rent out our first house, our starter house, small little house, and its about 15 miles from here. Well the guy paid some, and when I say some like a 1/3rd of the rent in Jan. and hasn't paid since and still lives there! Not by our choice by any means. In fact, it CLEARLY states in our contract that he has 14 days from his due date to pay or get off of the premises, well he is abusing that, he kept giving us excuses and fooling us around. He signed a contract stating he had 14 days to pay or get out.. Well lets just say he hasn't paid or got out, and the law wont help us either. They want US to pay them, and then say they will still have 30 days left... There is a loop-hole, in which states that if he destroying the property, or doing illegal activity than we can get him out even quicker. Well the lovely court house for this area, is so dumb they dont know how to file the proper paper work, and their only response is, get a lawyer, such crock!

On we go..

So we buy a backhoe and were very excited, it arrived Tuesday night, Tommy checks it out and finds out it has a cracked block. Long story short, Even though Ebay claims to help us, they wont do diddly squat, and neither will paypal. We are still working on how to fix this problem.

Other than that I have been taking pictures like crazy. Check out

I know what it's like to need to evict someone and not have the backing from the law. It's because the law assumes all landlords are rich and preying on their tenants. My parents ran into problems with that time and time again before they finally sold the house. I hope something works out for you with that! And the backhoe. I can't believe that one. I think you should be able to call the police on that due to the price you paid.
Congrats on the job!

Thanks Afton. Without saying to much, I will say that we will make him want to move out!
