If she prevents you from coming back in, some police departments will do a civil standby and/or come out and explain to your mom that she can’t just kick you out like that if you lived there. 

I wanted something with NO bunk beds and NO loft that overlooks the living area that is considered a bedroom (no privacy or sound prevention) also was hoping to find something with A/C, which most people say you don't need, but we spent a week in Yosemite 2 years ago and sleeping was difficult with the extreme heat wave that went through when we were there.

If Tenant wishes to use their own appliances, Tenant agrees to contact Landlord in advance to obtain prior written approval and instructions, as the removal and installation of appliances must be done with care to prevent damage to the appliance and/or building.

I often break it down into the "five pillars" of protecting your assets.1st pillar is avoiding unnecessary and risky activities (don't drink and drive, insurance generally won’t cover your poor decisions) and take good care of your investments - these simple steps will help you prevent lawsuits before they even occur.2nd pillar is a good insurance policy as that cover the majority of your exposure.
