Nastiness...

Well, since we've been working on Dave Ramsey's "baby steps", we have taken on a side job with my company. Not a pretty job, a disgusting, make you PAY for getting into debt job. I'm cleaning the townhomes after tenants move out (or are evicted) to prepare them for new move-ins, and my precious, dear husband is doing the painting. Let me just say, the money is helping us SO much to get where we want to be, and it's been a God-Send. BUT, it's beyond disgusting most of the time. Today I cleaned a unit that was dirty from ceiling to floor. Really, ceiling.to.floor! I spent at least an hour giving it a deodorizing like never before, because after the carpets were cleaned, it was still stinky. Then, I realized the baseboards were crazy nasty & had to pretty much clean them throughout the entire house...EWWW! How does that happen in a townhome that's only 2 years old anyway? I've lived in my house for almost 7 years and have only cleaned the baseboards um, well, let's just say not very often. It's not necessary if you don't live like pigs!
Oh, and who in their right mind would keep a dog in a rental property that chews on wood? Any wood apparently, window sills, base boards, door casings, whatever the stupid dog could find. That's what happens when people without home training try to get a puppy. How are you going to train a dog when you're not trained yourself??? I swear, I should teach a class...it's going to be called "Don't be stupid! If you already are, don't reproduce or get any animals"
I'm a little bitter, I'll be all better tomorrow.
