This is a new weekly blog post that I'm calling Apartment Hell Life. I've mentioned a few times some of the crazy things that go on in and around my apartment complex in the past 20 years that we've lived here and people keep telling me I should write a book. But instead of a book, I've decided to share the crazy things that have happened in and around my apartment complex in the last 20 years here in a weekly blog post.
Ken has an appointment with the Oncologist this week so I'm hoping for some good news.
So that's it for this week's ApartmentHell Life! Be sure to come back next week for more.
If you follow my daughter's blog, you might have already seen this but for those of you who don't, here ya go. This is the door to the old maintenance shop. Maintenance stopped using it because the homeless drug addicts kept breaking into it and sleeping in there. They keep breaking the door open and maintenance keeps nailing the door shut. This week my daughter took these pictures when she saw the door was off the hinges.
They brought in some chairs or couches and left their McDonald's trash all over the place.
Right here you can see the wall leading to the laundry room has a hole in it and the wall on the right also has a hole in it. The wall on the right leads to a vacant apartment and they slowly broke into that apartment as well. The maintenance man called the police earlier this week when he thought the homeless were in the vacant apartment but by the time the cops got here, the people had left. The police have not been back all week but the people have been going in and out of the old shop so I know they are in the vacant apartment too.
Right directly behind that wall straight ahead is the laundry room. Well, I guess they really wanted to wash some clothes because they busted through the wall with a hole large enough to crawl through into the laundry room.
Through the hole you can see one of the washers. I told you a while back that there's been no apartment manager on site for months now and the laundry room has been locked the whole time. Well, now there's a back entrance to it.
The is the hole in the wall leading to the vacant apartment. They're slowly picking away at that wall and I am guessing will be able to get through those wooden beams soon and make their way into the apartment. They made the hole big enough to get into the vacant apartment the very next day after this picture was taken.

Life Update:
Ken has an appointment with the Oncologist this week so I'm hoping for some good news.
So that's it for this week's Apartment
Perhaps you should threaten not to pay the rent if things are not taken care of by the manager in charge.
ReplyDeleteWe're not allowed to do that here because of the 30 day no cause. Managers can give you a 30 day notice for no reason if they want to and evict you. You can sue them after you pay rent but the courts almost always side with the managers and apartment owners here.
DeleteSigh.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes I will wish for good news for Ken and for you.
Thank you.
DeleteHope your daughter will be safe.. Hope you hear good news for Ken...Wishing all the best.. Be safe.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteSuch damage and destruction. There must be some way of preventing it, though I can't immediately think what.
ReplyDeleteI can't think of any either.
DeleteWow, it sounds like the apartment really needs a manager and a maintenance staff that is willing keep things up. A maintenance room should have a strong secure door, I'd think. I hope your husband receives good news.

You would think but it's a little crazy here right now.
DeleteBusting through several walls - that is just crazy.
ReplyDeleteI know. I could hardly believe it.
DeleteWow, those pictures are incredible.
ReplyDeleteThank you. That's why I keep taking them and posting them. It would be hard to believe all the stuff that goes on around here if I wasn't documenting it.
DeleteWithout real tools, they sure are working hard! Lol, too bad they don't just get a job.
ReplyDeleteHoping for good news this week.
Thank you.
DeleteWhat you need is a very big dog with big teeth an a huge appetite. I mean, really...
ReplyDeleteHow are you, Mary?
I do. I'm doing the best that I can right now. Thank you for asking. I hope you are well and doing ok too.
Deleteyes, get a big dog and security systems seem to be selling good right now. stocks are up.
Deletelol That would be a good idea.
DeleteOh my goodness, that's a real mess, alright. Never seen anything like it in real life! 🙄🤷♂️
ReplyDeleteThis place is so crazy.
DeletePraying for good news.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteThat's pretty scary. That door needs wired to electricity to bite the intruders. We're hoping for good news for Ken too.
ReplyDeleteThat's a good idea.
DeleteI think I'd be nervous to do my laundry since they have access to that area. You never know if someone's next door laying in wait. These people need to get a job since they have nothing better to do with their time but destroy other people's property!
ReplyDeleteHope you get good news about Ken!
We don't use that laundry room since it's been taken over by the drug addicts.
DeleteHanging out in the maintenance shed...what a life. Hope Ken's appointment this week goes well. My fingers are crossed!
ReplyDeleteThank you, I hope so too.
DeleteThis is crazy!
ReplyDeleteI know. lol
DeleteI do hope that Ken gets some very good news this week! I can't believe that there is nobody onsite to take care of problems like this. That is a huge safety issue! Stay safe, Mary!
ReplyDeleteThank you, I hope so too. it's just unbelievable really.
DeleteIt's too bad there's no security camera that can be placed in there. The police could get clues of who the people were. Maybe a sign that says this place is monitored by a securtiy camera. A fake camera could scare them away because they wouldn't know if it was true or not.
ReplyDeleteHope that Ken will get some good news this week.
I hope the management does something. Thank you.
DeleteI hope Ken's appointment gives you some hopeful information!
ReplyDeleteWow- I can't get over the breaking in and hole creating! I don't even have words after seeing the pictures. Just- wow! I hope if the police catch them they are able to do something about it.
Good luck!
~Jess
I hope the police catch them too.
DeleteI'm not sure how you guys can stay there. It doesn't seem safe. I hope you have good news coming.
ReplyDeleteI hope so too.
DeleteI will keep positive thoughts your way.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteHoly crap, Woman. What a crazy place! I hope you're staying safe.
ReplyDeleteAnd I hope the oncologist will help you with a treatment plan and that Ken will be okay.
lol I know.
DeleteI hope so too.
I hope Ken's appointment goes well and you get some good news, Mary.
ReplyDeleteThose homeless/drug addicts are sure resourceful and determined, aren't they?
I hope you have a good week. Stay safe and well.
Thank you.
DeleteYeah they are.
That's so crazy and I'm sure people doing laundry love having that hole there that anyone could get through! Yeesh.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to Ken with his appt and hope it goes well. Take care this week Mary!
Thank you. People don't really us the laundry room because of all the drug use going on in there.
DeleteJeez it's crazy that nobody is doing anything about the vandals-what a mess they've made. How long until they start knocking holes through to apartments that are being lived in! It's crazy!
ReplyDeletePlease wish Ken all the best for the appointment. I've got everything crossed for some good news.
I know. They are really making a mess of things.
DeleteThank you.
what a crazy place
ReplyDeleteIt really is.
DeleteThinking of you and Ken and the tough challenges and those daily challenges you face ❤️
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteWow, those homeless people sure are persistent. So sorry you're having to deal with that on top of everything else! Praying for good news from the oncologist!!
ReplyDeleteNicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction
You sure do have some destructive homeless people in your area :( What a mess!
ReplyDeleteKeeping you in my thoughts this week. I hope you get positive news ♥
You know I hate to hear about the plight of the homeless, but to destroy property like this is definitely not called for, and people who live there should have the right to use the laundry without having to deal with this. Such a sad situation. You already know I'm praying hard for you guys. Lots and lots of hugs, RO
ReplyDeleteWOW! 😯😯😯😯😯😯😯
