I got up early this Monday morning and went to my 92-year-old dad's house and pulled his toilet in anticipation of a flooring guy coming at 8AM to fix some water damage to the subfloor and put down new linoleum. It was supposed to be a one-day job but he hasn't shown up yet (3 PM). So now I get to go reinstall a toilet and await notification from This Fucking Guy when he plans to show up. Tomorrow? Weeks from now? 

He hasn't responded to any phone calls so maybe he's ceased to be.

Ferrets leave a poop pile in a corner which is what I was dealing with the mice. I’ll go with Jack!  Love those dogs. And they poop outside.

Received a letter about a credit card dispute asking for a response within 2 weeks. Letter arrived a month after it was sent and didn't include the attachment I was supposed to be responding to. So they closed the dispute.

A 60 day notice to get out of my house and not a single rental to apply for. 
Well, actually there was one. But we've not heard back and I think it was
a scam of some sort. 
Well, is this the conclusion of Manbird?
Will I hear the fly buzz?




There's a constant demand for pet-minding house sitters over here - sourced on a couple of trusted websites, or through word of mouth . I've done it a lot, it's been pretty beneficial. I don't know if there's anything like that you can look into as one possible idea?. Of course you need somewhere to store your stuff - and to not have own pets, usually. I've done it on my own but some property owners want couples, and/or blokes who are handy at maintenance, or gardening.

Anyway, sending you vibes to find something good!

... or for another 56 days - whichever comes first. Yesterday I got scammed for $25 by a fake rental ad on craigslist.
The anger and embarrassment at myself is worse than the loss.
