The Keys Are Ours
… and so was the filth left behind by the previous owner — ok, only a bit of dirt. We always re-steam and scrub a rental anyway, but we should not have had to deal with this. We chose, however, to accept it.
But my favorite: “I checked on changing the windows, but if one person does it they have to assess all owners to change.”
Now, I was tired and NOT in a good mood and emotional and all the windows at this end of the building are jalousies, but I was SURE I had seen other windows that were brand new and sliders or double hung. Rather than act like a jerk and knowing that if I opened my mouth, I might, I just nodded and mumbled. When we left we drove the length of the building and I counted five or six brand new windows, one set still with giant stickers proclaiming their brand. They were on the other two floors, but…. windows are windows.
We did hear the ocean when we opened our front door to come back home — and I don’t intend to stay there and NOT hear it because the windows don’t open. YES! I KNOW! We should have tried all the windows, especially after the apartment we are in, but the ocean sucked us in, somewhat willingly, I might add.
Tomorrow, have to move stuff up and continue cleaning the next few days — I want it spotless!
Just hope I can keep it that way.
I sure hope we can spare a moment or two at the beach before too many days pass!
