Talked to the property manager today, he said flat out no the cameras. Hes going to stick with the security guards who he said "cant be everywhere at once, deal with it"

Also a few days ago i had some retard in an ford explorer do a very similar thing, only while merging. I swear, up here people do not know how to merge. He actually gave me the finger on that one, and I pulled over and offered to hear what he had to say, but as soon as i stepped outta the car he took off Pansy!
I know exactly what you mean, If it wasnt for Julie being with me sometimes I would have given a few more people a piece of my mind lol.

I had a guy honk, yell and wave his hands at me while I was trying to turn out of the elementary school where my sister goes during rush hour. It wasnt even that long of a wait but he was pretty upset, so I put my truck in park and as soon as I opened the door to get out that dude hoped a curb, drove through a field and the proceeded to cut off some guy pretty bad. I had the janitor laughing his but off since he was standing right there and saw the whole thing.

All you can do really is hide what's in it and get an alarm.

Property manager is probably the one behind the whole robbery crap! I was in property management and even though it was apartments, without the tenants you wont be making money. So spending a little $$ to make them happy and customers of those businesses feel safer SHOULD be a no brainer. Hell, put up the dummy cameras for a start!

Morning.

Been getting some pretty decent storms around here. Rained all night last night....which is good. The veggies I planted weekend before last have already grown 2x the size they were when I planted them.

That's hilarious. Just goes to show what kind of a person he really was. As Spoon would put it, he's a pansy ***. Only aggressive while in the safety of his vehicle, the second you take that element away, he freaks out, jumps a curb and drives through a field. What a man,...I tell ya.

Thats kinda what I was thinking, too. He doesn't seem to care about the wellbeing of his tenants. I wouldn't be very successful in business, becuase I would have the mind to take my store outta his building and go somewhere else, regardless of what it did to the business.

Jim - on the ex wife....if she wants to put herself on a downward spiral to dispair, there isn't much everyone around her can do, including you. If the golden rule is the way we go here, with the way she has treated you, I don't think you need to give it a second thought...leave her to her own devices. I know it sucks...J-L's stuff is gone, and the fact that you still have to get that house sold...but the courts gotta be able to do something about the house and, J-L's stuff can be replaced.

I know exactly what you mean Lisa. You reap what you sow. My biggest concern here is the sale of the house. My finanicial security is depending on it. I have faith that it all work out. I just wish that it work out without the added stress.

Well one thing you can be sure of, and that is that someone, somewhere, has gone through the same exact thing you are going through right now. No doubt the courts have made financial decisions because of the mental health of one of the parties involved. I had a friend who went in on a house with his fiancee. She went nuts, the engagement was broke off, and he was left with a house he could not afford. He got roommates, and managed to make it work. When it came time to refinance the house (to put it in his name) she refused to sign the paperwork. He got a lawyer and essentially, all he had to do was prove that she had not put anything towards the payment on said house for a certain number of months. He managed to get the place in his own name, despite her refusal to cooperate. Which in itself was hilarious, because the second she lost her "bargaining chip" with him, she started being sweet and manipulative again. Before that she was a raging *****.

I'm sorry you have to deal with all the stress. Does it feel like you are running track, just jumping over hurdles? The second you think you're finished, you see one more hurdle ahead of you?
