Thanks, everyone. Hubby called and left messages for them but they haven't returned his called yelling & screaming like we thought they would. Somehow, I think this is the calm before the last storm of this mess. Of course Hubby & I are thinking of the stuff that we will sell if they don't come to pick up their crap. A nice dinning room table & chairs, a few flat screen t.v.s, stainless steel washer, stainless steel freezer, among other things. So we may be able to recoup a bit of our losses. But, there is also a lot that will end up at the dump.
We have been through this once before-but this one is FAR worse. But at least they are OUT and we no longer have to pay for their water.
The next door neighbor informed us that the garbage they had in the shed was starting to smell as the weather gets hotter. Hubby rented a dumpster (at $600 ). So, today the two of us emptied out the shed. Bags & bags & bags of garbage. We are surprised that nothing jumped out at us. Under all of that, we found a Huffy bike and the seat of a chair. Hubby throw the chair into the dumpster but the bike we may be able to sell if they don't come get their crap. Once the shed was done, we were about to knock off for the day. But, then Hubby noticed that flies were all over the back porch. Yup-more garbage-under a tarp which is why we didn't see it. Then he went upstairs on the porch and sure enough, there were more bags. (The back porch is 2 story that has outside stairs). We also found garbage on the front porch & on the side porch, too. OY VEY!!!
It took us TWO HOURS!!!! Yeah, we took a few breaks but it was only for about a minute or so. But, for the most part, we were working.
We came home, and I jumped into the shower. He used the weedwacker outside and by the time he was done, I was done with my shower and then he took his. I then throw ALL our clothes that we were wearing into the washer.
The thing is, our bathroom is in the middle of being redone. Our contractor disappeared so I thought it was safe for us to use the shower. Well, the contractor DID show up-but lucky for us it was AFTER we showered.
Sounds like fun, huh?
Two things were going through my head today, this:
Lol, longest day of the year is the shortest day on the other side.
Appropriate to bring this up though, seeing as the "Sun God" was one of the Pagan's favorite worshipping idols.
Even today, many Fundamentalists accuse Catholicism of having the pagan sun god in it's symbolism.
