Oh, Anthony, I genuinely feel for you. Until about two years ago, we rented also. I got tired of being at the mercy of the landlord, tired of fighting them when something went wrong. Once we had terrible rains that left over 3 ft of water in the cellar - where the hot water heater and electric box was - and the guy didn't want to do anything about it. We ended up calling the fire department to come pump the water out and he received a phone call from the fire chief and health department. We were on his bad side since then and had to move out. I finally convinced my husband that it was time for us to own our own home, so we bought one! Now...we have other headaches that go along with being the homeowner, but we can handle that.

And nothing wrong with takeout either. It's hard being the provider when everyone else is sick, so take it easy on yourself and do what you have to do.

And don't forget to breathe.....have a great day!
