What a stupid day. At 1PM
(e:terry) and
(e:lilho) came by Roswell for lunch. At that point, I had these wild dreams about going to the beach or doing something refreshing like a water park. Instead my errands got out of control.
First we were supposed to stop by the tenants house to get them all to sign their new leases. Instead, we ended up dealing with all this drama because one girl did not pay the gas bill and they shut the gas off. I seriously cannot believe it. It took about an hour. She is the same girl that always pays her rents late. I told the girl who is still living there, that this is her chance to kick that girl out because the leasing are gettign signed but that she would need to get soeone else in right away. At least one tenant paid their entire rent through december.
Then I tried to call the lawyer again about 16 times. She never retrunred my calls or email so I decided the only way to deal with it was to confront her in person because our landlord wanted an answer right now as to when we are moving. Unfortunately, there office is way far away in the top floor of the larkin building. Its all nice cherry and leather fanciness. In fact all the floor of elevator announce the floor number until you arrive at the top and it says Welcome to Harris Beach."
I think we made a huge mistake choosing such a large law firm for such a tiny case. I think maybe they would have been a appropriate firm for a car accident or something. Turns out the title problem still exists but that we can move in early if the seller agrees. The lawyer says that the problem is they cannot find the paper saying that the church (a non-profit) was able to sell the house. Fortunetly, the church really did want to sell the house to the guy and they just need to find or get new paperwork. Unfortunately, it requires a supreme court of NY judge and they are very busy golfing during the summer. Those were her exact words.
So then after that we went to the sellers house and believe it or not he doesn't think there is any problem and plans to move out on the 4th and close. This is good for us if it really happens. So I guess he is agreeing to us moving in earlier. So we really might be moving on Saturday.
On another note, I am glad that someone keeps track of the spelling on this sites interface:

I hear (e:ladycroft) is a good duct cleaner. Ask her.
My parents use Indoor Air to clean our ducts. I've never heard my mom complain, so I assume they are pretty good at it.
