Reasons To Be Happy...and reasons to be sad

He makes me smile.

And today I need that. Seems like one bad thing after another this year. We just found out that our dear neighbor Paul is getting kicked out of his house because HIS LANDLORD missed 14 MONTHS of mortgage payments and the house is being foreclosed.  (14 payments which Paul handed him each month) He was given 3 days notice to move. Paul is on my speed dial. He waters our plants when we are gone. Brings in my trash can almost every week. Rakes my yard sometimes just because. Is kind to Ian. Best neighbor I've ever had.  Now he and his roommate need a home while his jerk of a LANDLORD sits in his house and ignores his obligations.

Grrr... things like that are so unfair and sad to hear. Good luck to him and hopefully things will work out and maybe he can stay in the neighbourhood.
