Re: Hi All

Thanks everybody. I think my nerves are calming down and logic is starting to take over. Amazing how emotions can be stirred once again and make you feel like you are back there going through stuff. Kind of like military men coming back from war and jumping under tables when a car backfires. I used to jump under tables a lot (metaphorically) and haven't in a long time. But I jumped under a table today. I think writing this book and bringing up all these old memories plus this small claims suit really did a number on me today. But, thankfully, I seem to be coming out of it. Thanks for the prayers!

Re: Hi All

boy, oh boy, ILG, I am really getting anxious to read your book. But in the meantime, the need right now is for us to hold you up in prayer. And THAT we will do. Just because we care.

If you need us to put in a good word with the judge, just tell him or her to join AFF..........

Re: Hi All

I have not had much in the way of suits and stalkers from within the church, but I do know tenants can drive one nuts! I have lost over ten thousand $$ in unpaid rents. of course that does not count the damage they caused to the property.

In the end - I had to tell myself it's just money!!

Getting a judgement against a tenant is the easy part. Collecting after the judgement? Not so easy.

Anyhoo, I will pray for you ILG!

Yeah, that's what I've heard. We've never taken anybody to court for rent before so this is a first. I never really wanted to take anybody to court and we really tried everything before doing this, including sending certified, return receipt requested letters and they never called us about any of it and refused to return our calls.

I used to have the basic Amish belief about not taking anybody to court. When we lost money in the past it was fairly minimal. This time, it seemed wrong not to take them to court for the simple fact that, you know the old saying.....the only thing evil men need to flourish is for good men to do nothing.
