I know it has been a while, I was not doing well, had a lot of worries, hanging over me. I had to worry that i would come home to all my stuff being out in the yard for years, having to walk on egg shells, so i did not get kicked out of the apartment i was renting, and having to deal with my landlord stomping and yelling at times when I was sleeping when i worked mornings and had to get up at 4 30 am the stomping and yelling would go on until 4 in the morning, when i started working nights, she would be in bed when i got home and when i would go to bed, around 3 or 4 in the morning, the stomping and yelling would start around 8, 9 or 10 am, and go until it was time for me to get up, when I would say something to her all she would do is say" im sorry i did not know you had to work", funny though it only happened when i had to work, if I was off never heard a peep out of her.
I was stressed out all the time, did not know what I could do, I could not afford to rent another place, i was basically trapped.
Then I talked to a realtor and she got me to talk to a VA person, and I looked at a few houses, and was able to buy a house, through my VA home loan, with nothing down, and nothing up front.
So now I own my own home, I was able to adopt a Dog from the Animal shelter here, I was not able to have a dog at the place i was renting, I had my 2 cats, but had been wanting a dog for a while.
Things are starting to look up for me now, my stress levels have gone down, and i dont have to worry about finding my stuff in the yard any more, or getting kicked out.
When I told her I would be moving out by the first the Next day she gave me a note to be out by the end of that weekend, so I had to move my stuff to a friends house, and stay there until it was time to sign for my house. and that was a stressful time also, I know it was not legal for her to do that, but if i would have stayed until the first there is no telling what i would have had to put up with, after I told her i was moving she was stomping and yelling up stairs, opening my door and yelling down the stairs at me, and then when she gave me the note, which i still have to show a lawyer when i get the chance, the yelling kept up, and i noticed that the light for my wifi was blinking like when someone was using it, yea i let her use my wifi for free the whole time i lived there. but If i could not use my internet she was not going to use it so i cut my internet off, and again she started yelling down the stairs, mad because i cut it off. she sowre i never did any thing for her, again she got FREE wifi, and for a while i let her use my cable box, but i did not get enough channels to make her happy, she got her yard weed eated FREE, and her snow shoveled FREE, and the FEW times we decided to pay someone, to do the yard work and were supposed to split the cost, I found out I was the ONLY one paying, there were so many things going on there i cant even put it all in here.
But I was trapped, i had looked into renting some where else, and just to move in the cheapest i could find just to move in, would have been $1500 just to move in I did not have that kind of $$$.
I did not want to be homeless, and did not know what i could do. until I talked to that realtor.
So now I start a new chapter of my life I own a home, yes things will be tight, and a little rough, but i will make it.
