Apartment hunting

Place #1.  The landlord who lives in the house attached to the apartment gave me the creeps.  He looked at me funny and I had a suspicion he had peep holes all over the place.  There was mold growing from the tub, spider webs all over the place, and a lovely diarrhea coloured floor throughout the living room.  He was renting it for a whopping $650/month with nothing included.

Place #2.  I feared for my safety entering the building.  The elevator smelled like pee.  There were beer caps on the floor.  There was some weird floor board in the bathroom (not sure why).  The hallway approaching the apartment was dark with weird marks all over the walls.

Place #3.  Handcuffs in the bedroom closet.  Enough said.

Place #4.  Real sketchy landlord.  There were water marks all over the place from flooding.

Place #5.  Landlord didn't show up for appointment.  Besides it was in suburbia.

Place #6.  The keeper!!!  I have a purple living room!!!  I have a huge yard with the possibility of creating my own gardens!  I have a bedroom that is separate from my kitchen and bathroom.  What a gift!

Place #7.  Just in case it was better than place #6.  One really small room (about the size of a dorm room) to act as living room, bedroom and kitchen.  No stove....but a hot plate!!!  "Just as good" said the landlord. 


I'm happy with #6!  You'll have to come visit.  We can drink tea in my purple living room!!!

Troubling...

A single person on welfare in Nova Scotia makes $5,422 per year, which is $12,473 below the poverty line.
Since 1989 welfare rates in Nova Scotia have bene reduced by up to 36%.

I am appalled.

I went to a different church then usual on Sunday night.  I had never been there.  I wanted to share a quote from the sermon...

"When I see a pastor having a cold one with his flock I see the name of the Lord profaned".


Yikes, I drink beer with my pastor.  I didn't realize the seriousness!
