You are NOT going to believe this!

We are officially homeowners again!!!!!! Yesterday as soon as we got the word we drove down to our new home. We pulled into the driveway and guess what I saw???? One by one little critters came out from under my porch! CATS!!!!!!! There were a total of FOUR... a momma, 2 kittens and her pimp. I DON'T WANT ANY ANIMALS!!!! I just sat there in the car screaming as matthew laughed and Darcy wanted to chase them. So if anyone wants any cats just let me know... they're all yours!!!!! Also we noticed that the lady had left her grill and a rocker chair with a small plaque with hers and her hubby's name... but since their in the middle of a divorce I assumed she had no use for it. Its a really nice rocker and I'm sure it would be no problem to remove the little screws on the plaque.

Okay so moving along... we walk inside and she has gotten everything out for the most part... she didn't leave garbage all over the place but we did find things left behind. My main concern was that she clean the barn/garage before closing... as stated on the contract. Matthew and I opened the door and you wouldn't believe the amount of TRASH she'd left for us to take to the dump. I was furious!!!!! First of all I do NOT have a trailer or a truck big enough to get all that crap out of there... I mean boxes, bags and trash cans full of crap!!!!!! Second, I do not have the money or time to take it to the dump!!!!!

A little while later we were inside cleaning up when someone knocked on the door. There was a nice young man standing at my door... he had been asked to come by and get her grill and rocker for her but since he saw we were there he wanted to check to make sure it was okay first. I politely said "nope, i believe everything thats here is mine now. BUT if she wants to come and get her cats and all the trash she left behind then we might can work out a deal." The guy was just as polite and said he totally understood. So when he left we pulled the rocker and the grill inside and took pictures of EVERYTHING. I was so worried that she would come back IN MY HOUSE and take the stuff. But I've already been by there today and its all still there... cats, trash and all!!!!

Can't you go after her for violating the contract by not clearing the barn out?
