30 days left on Marlee

Today begins my final month on Marlee Avenue. My landlords at Old Orchard Properties unlawfully refuse to assign anyone new to the lease, or to recognize me as a tenant even though they have been collecting rent from me faultlessly for two years.

I have not low income for years and the job hunt is proving difficult. Finding somewhere to live is more urgent and fundamental though. If I can find an OK room with good people for $800–$1000, I should subsequently be able to find an OK way to pay the rent.

  1. I see this home as an important one in your life journey so far. It was where you completed your PhD, met your friend Chantal, visited with Sasha, enjoyed time with Katrina and cooked many grilled cheese sandwiches. I got to enjoy strawberry waffles there; what a treat!
