Well, that used/new to you stove looks nice. Too bad you don’t get to take it with you but hopefully your next rental home meets all your needs and wants. Your purses look great – I’m amazed at how you are plugging along at them with the craziness going on around you but I guess you have to take these things in stride. Good for you!

You are a working machine!! And so sane to do all that you're doing with your purses AND getting ready to move. I think I'd be doing more than a little champagne before bed! Good luck with your move! Hyphen Mama's last blog post..Meadow Muffins and Dog Dirt

Good grief. That’s quite a story.

First, your landlord’s insurance may cover some of your costs, especially if you had to have things cleaned to get the smell out. I once had a wall oven explode and catch fire…oh boy, that was entertaining…. My homeowner’s insurance bought a very, very nice new oven for me–much nicer than the one that was in there, which itself was not junk. So look in to what insurance can do for you.

Second, it’s possible that your landlord or the landlord’s insuror will cover the cost of your gas bill above & beyond the normal cost. If you had a gas leak, you were at extreme risk. And the insulation in the wall catching fire smacks of incorrect installation of either the stove or the wallboard. Can the landlord spell l-a-w-s-u-i-t? If she can’t, you can bet her insurance company can. Ask nicely (at first) and you may be able to get some of the exorbitant utility bill reimbursed.

What I'm really glad about is that I don't have to move. Freecycle is your friend before and after a move. witchypoo's last blog post..Witchypoo Interviews Miguelina
