What would you do if...
Comments (67)I guess possibly the best way for you to make your decision is what is best for you personally. This is obviously one of those topics that causes people to have strong opinions one way or the other. It is definite that it is your property and it should not have been done. On the same token, it could be on your dry-wall, built-ins that you happened to not even see, or the back of a tile. I'm not making light of this, but I suspect this happens more than "we" are aware. I would also feel that it was meant as a blessing & not look into studying the words too much. I would ask yourself, is this going to bother me in the future. Is having it permanently covered up still going to cause me discontentment, hostility or anger. Are you going to feel some sort of bad karma having it there? If so, then have someone come in and have it removed. I would also advise to be very careful if you "tell-on" the person who did the writing on your cabinets. Please be aware that he may get fired and lose his and his families source of income. What he did was wrong, but I would not be able to sleep at night knowing he lost his job (probably over doing something he felt was a blessing). I would rather see the FU writers get canned once. So, if you decide you can not live with it there, please move forward. If you just want him to know that others (in the future) might not be as "tolerant or nice about his writings." Is it possible you could just contact him & give him the warning, rather than have him possibly get fired. This will nonetheless give you a story to talk about for many years. I wish you the best with your build and hope you enjoy your new home....See MoreWhat would you do if......
Comments (33)My family had a terrier mix, Bob, that was passed around the family like a bad penny. He was a smart, nice dog. But he pooped in the house, we could never break him of it. You could put him out, walk him, etc, and darned if he wouldn't come in and poop. It was maddening. Anyway, we kept him, first my DB, then another DB, then my parents. He was good-looking and clever, everyone liked him. Another DB taught him several cute tricks. So we were sorry when he ran away one day, we called the pound, animal control, for several weeks. Fast forward a year or so, DB's girlfriend is driving and sees Bob in a car. She follows the car and informs the man that the dogs was lost, and he says his wife found him long ago and you're going to have to go through my wife/over her dead body. She was apparently attached to him by then. Girlfriend excitedly tells DB of her discovery and gives him the family's phone number. Nobody wanted him back, due to the housebreaking problem and the time that had passed. I guess my family felt that if the lady had housebroken him, she must really love him. Looking back, I'm sure his housebreaking problem was due to being bounced around homes where my DB's were single, worked a lot and likely he didn't get let out/exercised properly. In that case, the new family was a better fit for the dog....See MoreWhat Would You Do If.....
Comments (3)I would freak out and probably drive off the road! Kim...See MoreWhat would you do if this was your home?
Comments (5)Videos are really not adequate for viewing the property as a whole. It would be better to stand at the edge of the yard or on the sidewalk and take series of still photos that overlap, with you standing in one place and just turning gradually to get in the whole view. Including how it meshes wth the neighboring properties. And we also need to know where you are located geographically to provide the most meaningful suggestions....See Morepprioroh
