I have been under some major stress. About a week ago I got a legal notice from my landlord that they are trying to evict me. This same landlord has recently raised my rent without giving the required 60 days notice, (actually she gave it to me after the effective date of the rent increase with a note that said I owed x amount in back rent plus late fees) and I have been without cabinet doors in my kitchen or heat in my bedroom (okay, there is a heater but it's a fire hazard and not usable) for going on two years now.
Yep- I haven't paid my rent since October. Granted, I have no idea what my actual rent amount is since she raised it and despite being pretty damn patient I am not in the mood to spend another winter sleeping in the living room, effectively turning my two bedroom apartment into a one bedroom because it's too damn cold to sleep upstairs.
So I sent my little non-legalese response to her attorney. I don't know how this is going to turn out. Kid and I may end up homeless for Christmas. But just having sent in the response I feel better.
Wish me luck- I think it's going to be a bumpy ride.
