pretty hard to get a life when I can't even get a home. :-C I'm calming down. Telling myself that the gorgeous 3 bed, 2 bath brownstone duplex with a yard, washer dryer, 4 decorative fireplace mantels for only $1700!!! was not meant to be. My home is still waiting to be found for reasons unknown to me at this time. I can't let my daughter see how stressful the apartment search is getting. She's only 12, she doesn't need to worry about it or about me. I'm going to get busy with housework in the meanwhile. And truth is, even though I have a 30 day notice for Aug. 31st, that's just the Landlady's first step. From there she can seek legal action so I actually have another 60 days beyond that until I'd be forced to take an ugly apartment. Someone just advised me that since my apartment is illegal and not meant to be income bearing that LL would have to reimburse me for the 4 yrs rent I paid here if I took her to court. I'll look into that to see if it's truth or myth. Maybe that's why I can't find a place - something else is meant to be. Deep breathing. Going to lose myself in cleaning while I chant the lovely Hayatri. Peace will come.
