So the saga with my apartment continues.... if you missed out on previous stories, it's suffice to say that I have experienced everything short of fire....
So, I live in a duplex. Months ago, the woman who lives upstairs was oblivious to the fact that her toilet was leaking into the ceiling of my bathroom. (It was incoming water, not sewage.) I only noticed when my walls and ceiling had paint bubbles that were full of water. I had to call the landlord who had to replace my ceiling. Then there was the tree that fell in front of my apartment. I couldn't get my car out for a couple of days because it was blocked in. Luckily, the tree did not hit the apartment or my car. But I didn't have electricity for 6 days. They had to re-wire my apartment. Fan-freaking-tastic.
And more recently, three weeks ago, I had an experience that I do not care to re-live. Termites swarmed inside my apartment. Thousands of them. Inside my apartment. It was absolutely disgusting. I had told my landlord 5 weeks before then that I had seen termites. He did nothing. And they swarmed. Needless to say, I was not a happy camper. I asked him to have my apartment cleaned.... just the carpet actually. And he refused. Basically we had a falling out about it. Three days later, I received a letter in my mailbox telling me that my lease had been terminated. It was not an eviction, just a termination. I truly think that I pissed my landlord off, especially since he doesn't return my phone calls anymore. According to the lawyer who wrote the letter, my landlord had mentioned needing to do some work on the apartment. So now, I have truly been eaten out of house and home.
