In a bit, my "landlord boss" is getting home.You all know I want out of here, and to have a place with my man. We haven't found one yet. SOOO, I sit here and tough it out.I don't pay rent, and I pretty much come and go as I please, but I live in MY own trailer on the ranch.SO, this weekend, there is a HUGE party happening here, and I get an email from her saying (red) PLEASE (red) remove all your personal property from around and near your trailer...Ok, so I think it is just the trashy stuff, that I didn't get because I have been gone, like laundry on the line, a tore up tarp on the doves cage, and the dog dish.OHHH no, it is, that my briquette bbq is in the wrong place, the totes under my table out side are not "acceptable" and the ice chest (that is needed in the summer for cold water) IDK..the list of "need it close" stuff goes on. (I could imagine being stuck on the pot after dark and expecting my 10yr old to bring paper from ANYWHERE but close...lol I would have to hit the tub for a bidet!!)So, I do stuff here for rent, but, I still have the wacked standards...I wouldn't care if it were just meant for the weekend while the company is here, just PERMANENTLY?!?!?!GRRRRR!!!!

My turn to rant?
-
I don't really know your situation, but you probably just gotta deal with it since you're not paying rent and all (how does that work, anyway?)
-
Here, a landlord is required to allow a tenant "quiet enjoyment" of the property. That means the tenant can use the property in a reasonable way without being hassled. It's likely there's a similar law for you.If you were getting the place completely for free there probably wouldn't be a legal landlord-tenant relationship, but if you are doing a bit of work, even if it's not very much, or providing some other service such as security, then it's the same as if money were changing hands.
-
I do think I just have to deal until I get a different place. My rent isn't FREE, per say, I work out here in exchange for it.
Ineligable, your right. There are similar laws here, but by me using my trailer, we are all breaking a bigger one.
I am just TOTALLY frustrated, and can't get out of here soon enough. I knew it would be tough, but it really IS time to go.
The worst part is I have to bite it, because her daughter is the boss with the real estate. I don't want to blow that deal!!!
Besides her daughter is the bomb, but if I do something bad "at" her mom, of course she is gonna side with mom. MOM owns 1/2 of the property that she lives on!!
Rolls eyes, very convoluted....the daughter is even the mom's "boss" in the business, but not the ranch...
-
Looks like you're going to have to put up and shut up. You're in an awkward situation there and unless you don't want to piss anyone off, you're going to have to conform within reason.
-
Put up and shut up, is what the last year was about, and the complaints were within reason.NOW it's all the stuff that has been there for 14+ months she wants moved...No shuttin up here! Just figuring out how to get the hell out. I'm not 10...All my personal property removed from around my place?????That is the doves, the plants, my bbq's (one gas for quickies, and one briquettes for good), lawn bench...I mean c'mon.NOT within reason.
-
Ironically, she is "comforted" by me being here, because there is some one on fire watch...you know, me, the smoker....SOOOO....just still looking for a place for us..
-
Wow, that sucks. I think it's time to move. hugs
-
What part of earth are you living in? Sounds like you're in Kansas, or something like that. Am I right?If not? Are you in New Mexico, Arizona, or Texas?I just picture this movie in my head where folks are livin in a trailer on a property surrounded by random valuables scattered about and a lil dim light coming from the trailer at night (your computer).OOOps, I just read you're from No. California. I was gonna mention that, too!
-
ROTF!!!It was a temporary fix for me anyway. I am getting tired of the stuff, like, my sister got me a magnet that says "the beer doesn't fall far from the trailer".I was jobless, (well I worked out here allready), needed a hiding place from my ex, and a roof over my head because I just sold my house. It's just time to move on. It just seems so IDK, sudden. Though, I am sure, some of it has to do with me having a boyfriend and I am not around to be the toby anymore....
-
It could be worse, you could be moving !I just moved over the last week, what a pain in the ass, got my net turned back on last night at the new place and I hate the new place but its what I had to do to get some of my lifeback.I sold my condo, the mother fucker sold in 5 hours after it was on teh market, closed 5 days later and fucking moved.I paid off the morgage, the second, and the third, and some medical bills that were really fucking me.no time to find a place to rent so I am now in my brothers basement.He loves it, it means he finally has the net and with 5 computers it means I set one up for him to use and its on the network.Im dead ass broke now, but atleast I dont owe too much money to anyone to be debt free again.Ill spend the next few montsh here paying shit off and looking for a place to move on a more perm arrangment.Julie finished school last sunday (the same day we had to be out!) and so now she has more earning power and we are looking at getting out of this state.mean while Ill fix up my brothers place instead of rent. install a patio, a fence, fix the yard and finish the basement (what a pain in teh ass to finish a basement when your living in it !)The garage is packed full of my shit, I havent found my sock box so Iv been wearing sandals for days, I only just found the box with my sheets and blankets in it today so no more sleeping bags on the bed! I lsot my cell phone during the move so now I need to go buy a new one if I dont find it in a week or so.The good news is he lets me do anything I want to the house and yard. a pond is currently being dug and Im setting the forms for a patio off the sliding glass door that leads to my bedroom in the backyard. some good shit, some bad.life can always be worse pepsi, move your shit into storage if ya can, find a place with your man and pack the trailer and pull it on down the road to the new house.m fucked, but mostly debt free now and thats the first step to me getting the hell out of utah. no car payments, no house payment, no condo fees, and as I unpack shit Im selling off or giving away a hell of a lot of it to empty my life of shit and make my next move (prolly spring) easier and cheaper.a 26 foot truck at 40 a day plus insurnace and 4 days of moving and tossing in gas, and fucking miles ran me about 300 dollars total and my sanity. toss in that I had to make 4 trips with that truck packed to the nuts each trip and one a fifth trip to the local salvation army to drop a full load of shit I dont need, fuck what a week.just remember that you like me will have something in the long run even though it sucks some major ass right now.but I dont have a 980 dollar house payment each month, and I dont have another 110 in condo fees anymore so thats over a grand I saved each month, Ill be debt free soon and have a small sum to strike out on my own again soon.I still got some of my sanity, and my computers and business.I should have shit set up next week or so if I can find my phone to get back to work. sometimes you do shit that sucks and yuo dont want to do to get to where you want to be.I was lucky enough to have family that helped me out to pretty much start my life over once I decided to sell the condo.out of 127k, I have about 300 dollars to show for it all, but I have much less medical bills and no morgages left.lifes a bitch, get a helmet.its needed since life consists of so much banging yuor head into a fucking wall.

Good luck, Chance! That's very heavy stress doing all that. Any move is high-stress, and yours has been extra-high. I hope you'll give yourself time to deal with the exhaustion that comes when the adrenalin dies down.
-
LOL The adrenaline was gone 2 days after the papers were signed when I was packing.I didnt want to steal pepsis thread, just point out that moving is shitty as well.Oh and that my net is turned back on so my long bout of absence is gone, so long as I take some time here and there to get online.and thanks for the wishes of luck, I fucking need it, maybe with it I can find the box that has my socks in it.
-
Good luck to you! Big steps, and hard descisions! I JUST went through that last year. Took my 4bed 2bath, living on a couple acres, for 10yrs life, and crammed it into a 34foot travel trailer.I have done what I could to make the best of it. It was supposed to last a couple years, but it isn't.ABOVE having to "hide" all my belongings, I discovered that someone took round up to my lawn! GRRRR!There are other weeds that are dead, at the same time, I am VERY dilligent about watering the grass...SO for it to go from lush green to dead brown in a day and a half...So, looking, HOPEFULLY, found a great house for us. We were looking at one that was considerably smaller for about $25 a month more. Looks promising. Five acres, a pond, in BFE (which the nudist in me LOVES) and yet, close enough to town.I sure DO hope we land this one. There is room to keep my trailer, until I decide whether or not I want to sell it, or rent it out (or just get a truck that will tow it, and actually use it for CAMPING!) Well, Chance, keep truckin'! Sometimes, you do have to downsize life to fit through the doors that open to you!
-
what does BFE mean?
-
Oh its downsized!but it may be the first part of me moving somewhere around the puget sound in the next year. Now that I settled on a place to move its the first step in me getting there.and good luck to you as well pepsi, maybe soon youll be on your own place in BFE.

ooo ok thank you
