like. I'll even part with some silver maple seedlings. Let me know
when you're ready.

Be sure to apologize for not putting back the weeds that were there
before you moved in.

either.
I hate it that this has happened, and hoping you find something
great (and
all yours) very, very soon!

Hope you can

We got a very unpleasant surprise today. To backtrack a bit, our
landlord
sold our house (two family brownstone) to his son, who moved in
downstairs.
We knew him and all so it didn't seem like a big deal. That is
until he told
us today we are no longer allowed any use of the front or
backyard. Our
grill, patio set, and all our outdoor plants have to go. To
quote him ("It's
MY house, and MY yard. You just rent the second floor." ). We're
unhappy to
say the least. The grill and patio set are new and since we
have to get rid
of them that's $300 down the drain. The plants (including three
rose bushes)
probably cost me a hundred or so at least. Now the previous
landlord (his
father) had no problem with any of it, and this one has been
around since
April and just now decided to tell us. He said it "slipped his
mind". Right.
He saw me planting, saw the grill and table set up, and never
said a word.
We're not dirty, messy people. When we moved in the front yard
was bare and
pretty ugly, and we're always complimented on how nice we kept
things,
inside and out.
Needless to say we are looking for a new place to live. Thank
goodness we
are in a position to do so. We refuse to be treated like second
class
citizens and made to feel unwelcome in our own home. Fine, he's
the
landlord, but our rent helps pay the mortgage and frankly after
5 years of
paying rent on time and being in their words "perfect tenants"
we deserve
better treatment.
I know things could be worse but boy are we pissed. All that
money wasted!
