So,
we are FINALLY moved . Still a lot of unpacking and a bit of frustration, but
isn’t that to be expected when you have three weeks to find a place and move to
a different state, all while finishing up your last course before you graduate
with a MS in clinical psychology with a specialization in applied research,
while also living with the lovely symptoms of fibromyalgia and most likely
stress-induced fainting?
The
new place is nice and is the first one in a while where there was carpet. Our neurotic
dog Downey, as well as myself, appreciate it. One thing that I am not digging though,
is the weird and creepy owner of the house. See, we went through a property
management agency, which has not been too weird in the past when we used one
when we moved to New Mexico. However, this guy, see, we have lived here all of
a week and he has come by twice, yesterday and today, to water our yard.
Normally that wouldn’t qualify as being creepy, but, dude, he has a strange
vibe. Sort of like a person who you just KNOW has a body or two in his
basement. Normal weird and strange, I can dig, but this is just... different .
It has also rained since he came over last (yesterday), so I don’t know why he
is back again to water.
I
don’t know about you, but I have a hard time relaxing when there are strangers
(or even non-strangers) in my house or on my property. As someone living with a
chronic pain condition, the added stress of having a property owner lurking
around is just something I do not need. We have been here a week. A. Week. Now,
tell me how I am supposed to relax in the few hours a week I get that isn’t
devoted to cleaning, school, work, other job work, taking care of our non-human
friends, etc … when there is a weirdo creeping around outside. I hope that
Strange Steve will make his presence scarce once he sees that we will take care
of his place. However, isn’t that what a property manager is supposed to do? To
manage your property as an intermediary so that you can rest assured that your
home would be cared for by the tenants who rent from the property manager?
I
will keep you updated.
