Hello there coffee fans.

Here’s a pic of me and Katie from last night at the Volleyball Reunion. It doesn’t really make sense to me and it doesn’t really have to.

look at us!!

Things are going well enough. I’m on my way to being ready to sell. Katie, Colin, Brenda B, Mac, Bonar, Reinhard, Ryan and my brother have been great help. I wouldn’t be able to manage this without you all.

So yeah, new tennant I got last summer screwed me. She stopped paying rent and I had to evict her. In the end she wasn’t heating the house so there was some pipe freezing and I can’t believe how dirty she made the house in only four months.

Decided I couldn’t handle this and decided to hand the house over to the bank. Found out after I called the bank that this would haunt me for years and decided I should try to sell. Called the bank to relay this. They said no problem and more than 24 hours later a property management company locked up my doors. Called CIBC and it turns out they didn’t relay my intentions to the right department fast enough and I was responsible for around 460 bucks worth of legal and property management fees.

Tried to fight this with the argument that I shouldn’t be responsible for shortcomings in the banks communication procedures. Seriously, why couldn’t anyone even have made a phone call?

So, after a week and a half I got in the house. Colin has been doing so much work for me. Fixing pipes, clearing out the trash and so on. It’s starting to look as good as it did after my four day disaster last summer. Hopefully good enough to sell.

Also found out that there’s this new program– Ontario Tire Stewardship program. They approved me to have all my 100 or so old tires picked up for free!! Yay!!

Things are moving along. I hate CIBC but yeah, things are getting better. Don’t have such chest pains from the stress anymore.

Thanks everyone!!
