As you know we moved my father out a month ago into a room that we rented for him in a house not that far from here.
Little did we know that the lady was renting the house herself and she had received an EVICTION notice prior to us moving my father in!
Almost two weeks ago we received a phone call from my father telling us that they had all been evicted and had to be out of the house by the 16th.
We headed over there to talk to the lady and find out what the heck was going on and to get our money back as we'd paid for two months rent...well she didn't want to give it to us and that was quite a battle but in the end Mark managed to get it from her...way to go honey!
What a nightmare!
Anyway, so we then had to look for a place for my father to stay AGAIN and this time only for two months so we looked and looked and couldn't find anything. Seemed that the rent went up 100 dollars in the 3 weeks since we'd moved him the first time. We were getting extremely frustrated and then my sister called to say that her boyfriend had found a place for us to look at.
So we went to look at the place. It was a house being rented by a bunch of young 20 yr olds but the father of one owned the home so we knew we'd be okay there....so we head downstairs to where the available room was...well there is a drum set and other musical instruments in the "living area" outside of the room for rent...the guys are in a band! No! this will not work we said and felt so disappointed...then the guy says well I guess we could rent your dad a room upstairs...ahh a glimmer of hope....
We head upstairs and the room is decent! And we asked how often the boys had band practice and they said twice a week and we just figured that if dad could get his tv hooked up then he could turn the volume up and not have to listen to it. So, we decided right then and there that this was the room for him. YAY no more searching!
That was last week. Today we move him in to his new place.
What a mess all of this has been but hopefully after this we won't have to do it again. Wish us luck!

You are going to be moving him again when the boys have had a couple of band practices - unless your father joins in !!
Carrie,
At this stage, YOU DO NOT NEED THE FRUSTRATIONS.
This is getting to be a critical time for YOU !!
Please relax wherever and whenever possible, give yourself a chance.
Goodluck
Peter
