♥ My Daily Grind ♥: 2014

Sometimes life gets in the way and we must do things that we had not originally planned but when we keep our faith and stop trying to change things that are out of our control good things come to us and eventually the stress dissipates. Look around you and appreciate what you have in your life and stop to smell the roses. Life goes by much too fast and you can't turn back the clock. Hopefully like us, you will find and realize you are with "the one" and life happily ever after. Make good memories rather than regrets. Be HAPPY!!!

From our hearts to yours Mr. and Mrs. D. Smith

Peyton, Colorado Renters BEWARE

I want people that are looking for a rental in Peyton to BEWARE of the property owner we recently had. Yes, I said "had", we have been evicted from her property and left homeless. At any rate, she advertises in the warm months of the year and is friendly and comes off as easy to work with. She let's you know there are many other people interested and she has several showings booked. That is how she gets you to do a rental application. Upon turning the application in she states it will be several days before she will contact us depending on how the background check goes. We waited almost a week and contacted her, she sounds happy we called and that she was going to contact us later that day but since we called she let us know we got the place and as soon as we have the first months rent and security deposit we would meet up and sign the lease. We have the monies and make an appt to meet up. We pay her the monies, do a very quick walk through, sign the lease, get keys and are told we can start to move in a few days later. We were excited about getting the place so the few days were spent packing and making plans in our head. Once we are living there problems start happening and we try to contact her. We have to leave messages and she returns the calls the following day. Any repairs that need to be done have to go through her, she contacts the people for whatever type of repair is needed and we have to pay for it. If we do the repair our self the cost cannot be taken out of the next months rent but it is quicker and less expensive when it's done that way. The cold comes and more problems start; the master bedroom which is on the north end of the house is 15 to 20 degrees F colder than the rest of the house. The pipes freeze solid and we have no water and can't do anything that involves the use of water. This lasts for several days. But when we contact her she tells us to do the things we we're trying to get the pipes to thaw. She will contact a repair person and get back to us with the information. After a day or so she calls back to let us know she could not find any one who will work on a manufactured home! So we have to suck it up and wait for it to get warm enough outside for the pipes to thaw. We had to plug in an electric heater UNDER the house and let it run on high for a couple days to get the pipes to thaw out. This drastically increased our electric bill! We had also turned up the furnace and opened the cabinets to expose pipes to that heat. Doing this used up a large amount of propane. Every time we had to contact her with any problems it would take longer for her to return the call or email and she would be ruder with each contact. Finally when the warm weather returned she suddenly had us served with eviction papers. Because of all the problems and the high electric and high propane usage to remedy the cold problem we wanted to find a different place to live any way. But things we're now necessary immediately because of the eviction. We talked to neighbors because they were approaching us because they saw us packing. Turns out via neighbors that she does this with every tenant she has ever rented to because she has to rent the place out before the cold comes so the house is comfortable and the pipes aren't frozen. I'm not going to post her name but BEWARE if you plan on renting in Peyton. Talk to the neighbors near by the property you are considering. The neighbors did not have any problem letting us know all about this property owner. Good luck

Tired of being disappointed...

I am so tired of trying to do what is best for "us" when I'm not a part of plans or steps to take to get from point A to point B. I think I am TOO TRUSTING. I do have this to say... I will not be used for any ones purposes only to be thrown under the bus or abandoned again. The person I should be able to trust is the most confusing, lying, selfish, asshole when times are bad for us. Then he manipulates things around so I feel like it's my fault everything is happening. I promise you this babe, as the God and Goddess are my witness... if you are just keeping me around because I have a immaculate record/reputation to make yourself look good until you are off paper and then you will once again intimidate and abandon me with nothing I WILL see to it that all the appropriate authorities have everything needed to prosecute and "label" you for the rest of your existence on Earth for everything you were apart of. I will shout the truth about everything for all to know. You manipulate everything to fit your agenda and depending on the person you are telling your fairy tale to adapt things to get the most sympathy from them and whatever material items you've wanted.

I love him with all my heart and soul and if he in fact is just keeping me around until I'm not needed to make him look good and upstanding only to break me beyond repair I will hunt him down. I don't understand what he has that has got such a strong hold on me but I have come to the conclusion I don't know what "love" really is. If this is love it sucks ass and everyone cannot be going through the same type of bullshit. I think because of the dysfunctional lifestyle I was raised in I take all this as normal everyday life. If a person is raised in dysfunction and chaos that is all they know and therefore that is "normal". My entire life has been this way with every relationship I've ever had and this can't be how everyone else is living? There is doubt more than ever so I am on my toes and taking notes on all the dirty deeds and heads will roll in the aftermath of my destruction.

Cranky Old Man

CRANKY OLD MAN

What do you see nurses? . . .. . .What do you see?
What are you thinking .. . when you're looking at me?
A cranky old man, . . . . . .not very wise,
Uncertain of habit .. . . . . . . .. with faraway eyes?
Who dribbles his food .. . ... . . and makes no reply.
When you say in a loud voice . .'I do wish you'd try!'
Who seems not to notice . . .the things that you do.
And forever is losing . . . . . .. . . A sock or shoe?
Who, resisting or not . . . ... lets you do as you will,
With bathing and feeding . . . .The long day to fill?
Is that what you're thinking?. .Is that what you see?
Then open your eyes, nurse .you're not looking at me.
I'll tell you who I am . . . . .. As I sit here so still,
As I do at your bidding, .. . . . as I eat at your will.
I'm a small child of Ten . .with a father and mother,
Brothers and sisters .. . . .. . who love one another
A young boy of Sixteen . . . .. with wings on his feet
Dreaming that soon now . . .. . . a lover he'll meet.
A groom soon at Twenty . . . ..my heart gives a leap.
Remembering, the vows .. .. .that I promised to keep.
At Twenty-Five, now . . . . .I have young of my own.
Who need me to guide . . . And a secure happy home.
A man of Thirty . .. . . . . My young now grown fast,
Bound to each other . . .. With ties that should last.
At Forty, my young sons .. .have grown and are gone,
But my woman is beside me . . to see I don't mourn.
At Fifty, once more, .. ...Babies play 'round my knee,
Again, we know children . . . . My loved one and me.
Dark days are upon me . . . . My wife is now dead.
I look at the future ... . . . . I shudder with dread.
For my young are all rearing .. . . young of their own.
And I think of the years . . . And the love that I've known.
I'm now an old man . . . . . . .. and nature is cruel.
It's jest to make old age . . . . . . . look like a fool.
The body, it crumbles .. .. . grace and vigour, depart.
There is now a stone . . . where I once had a heart.
But inside this old carcass . A young man still dwells,
And now and again . . . . . my battered heart swells
I remember the joys . . . . .. . I remember the pain.
And I'm loving and living . . . . . . . life over again.
I think of the years, all too few . . .. gone too fast.
And accept the stark fact . . . that nothing can last.
So open your eyes, people .. . . . .. . . open and see.
Not a cranky old man .
Look closer . . . . see .. .. . .. .... . ME!!

Remember this poem when you next meet an older person who you might brush aside without looking at the young soul within ... We will all, one day, be there, too!

Bit Strips

There is a new app on Facebook called "Bit Strips". You create a cartoon comic strip character of yourself and make a comic strip status, card or interaction with another person. I thought it was silly but enjoyed reading what others had made. Then I decided to try it out. Well... now I look forward to making at least one a day but most days I make a few. LOL

Here are a few that I have made, enjoy!
