Rehab goes from ugly to worse
So much for my "cosmetic" rehab. On top of yesterdays issues (cracked joists, leaky roof), after last nights downpour, today we can add leaking basement and flooded yard with serious drainage issues to the mix. Also it seems no venting for the plumbing was ever installed, and of course more cracked joists are surfacing all the time. Rough week. Conveniently at the same time my tenants haven't paid me since Jan and are into it for about $3500, and I'm in my first eviction which is getting uglier all the time btw. But wait - there's more - I've also just lost my cushy corporate 70k/year job and have just a few weeks of salary left before I face life with zero income.
Entertaining suff - eh?
Let's just say I don't sleep so well lately. I got a hot date with Remy Martin in a few to drown my sorrows for the night. Next week I probably face a bud light budget..lol.
But you know what? At the end of the day, I know it's kinda rough for me right now, but somehow I am also absolutely 100% positive that I will come out on top at the end of this whole mess.
So stay tuned...I WILL be spinning a happy ending to this horror story-
