Ups and downs

[luzula]

The upside:
I was at the annual meeting of my forest environmental organization this weekend, and it was GREAT. Lots of good discussions, lots of good friends there, no conflicts. We have a great board for the coming year. I am all full of new energy!

The downside:
And then I get home and find that the landlord FROM HELL has had people go into my room without asking or telling me and painted the windowsills. They moved all my plants and some other stuff around. I had a sex toy by the bed and various other private stuff lying around. He may own the house, but this is MY FUCKING PRIVATE ROOM and I will FUCKING END HIM. This is not the first time recently that he sends people in to do various renovation stuff without telling us first, which is not okay either, but this is an order of magnitude worse. What makes it even worse is that it's obvious he's only doing this because he's going to sell the house. Before that, he never renovated anything or fixed anything that was broken if he could help it.

We're having a meeting with him tomorrow and I'm calling the tenants' organization before that.

Fucking HELL. I do not understand the blatant awfulness of so many people, and I'm sorry you're dealing with that. >.<

Yay for the awesome annual meeting, though!

The situation is less dramatic now, although I'm still pissed. He says he has no further plans to renovate indoors (except for a few minor things that will be fixed tomorrow), and if that's true, fine. I just hope people don't turn up in a week's time and tell us they're going to work on the floors or something. We did threaten him with a police report (turns out it's illegal to do what he did), and he promised not to send people in again without asking us first. We'll see. : /

I suspect actually going through with the police report and going to court about it would be more energy than it's worth, although I hate that he's getting away with this and I hate that it's taking up so much emotional energy for me.
