I am $250.00 short of paying the rent. Tomorrow is the last grace day. It has to be paid by the 5th and I have no one that I can beg or borrow the $250 from.

If you enjoy RMN can you please help its publisher one more time?

It's a miracle that I am even on the internet right now. It's been off all day. I inspected everything from up and down and could find nothing wrong except that I could not get on the internet. I called the friend who set up the internet for me, and at this late hour, she came over to figure out what was wrong. She clicked the icon for the internet, pulled up the Drudge Report and announced... "Your internet is working fine." And as you can see, it is. I have no idea why I couldn't get online earlier today.

This is the first month that I have actually been living in the new house. The expenses have been horrendous. I have had to pay movers... I have had to pay painters to clean up the house I had lived in since arriving here in Ohio in 2010.

The new house is in the country, it has it's own water well, it has lots of land on which to grow food. It is the kind of house I have wanted. Tonight I sat on the front porch and watched the horses play in the field across the street. The moon came up over the forest of trees that are on a small hill. The moon was orange and huge. The entire scene reminded me of growing up in California's central valley. If I didn't know I was in Ohio, I would think that I was back in the small community in California where I grew up.

As wonderful as this new house is, securing it, paying double rent for 4 months because I had to be sure that my house guest who came for 5 months and stayed for over two years, was actually out of the house. I had to hire an attorney and take her to court. I won and she was ordered to leave. I expected that she was going to take months to finally move out, but she took less than two weeks to leave.

She left the rooms she had occupied for over two years without lifting a finger to try to clean them up. The carpets had to be cleaned and recleaned and the walls had to be painted. I have photos of the way she and her son left the second floor of the house where I used to live. All I can say is she had better not ever ask me or the landlord at the old house for a reference. She is currently living in Section 8 housing. I don't think she is qualified for it because she owns a house in California... unless it has been repossessed, which some believe it has.

The last month has been very expensive for me. I've been paying two crews. a moving crew and a painting crew. I now find that it's time to pay the rent on the new house. (I no longer am renting the old house and it seems my old landlord is very pleased with the way I left it.)

Because of all the added expenses I find that I am $250.00 short in paying the rent for June. If you can help, I truly need it. I normally pay the rent out of my Veteran's Administration check. But because of all of the added expenses of the move, my VA check was almost eaten up completely. There was $500.00 left to pay the $750.00 rent, leaving me $250 short.

Thank you so much for all your love and support and especially for your help at this time.
