janniebug, thank you. So you received the ultimatum from the landlord too. I avoid mine and have nightmares of him coming in when I am not here. Were you embarrassed when your mom saw how bad your place was? I mean mine is really bad and it has my stomache in knots. Part of me can't wait til my sister comes and helps, and part of me hopes she cancels. So scared, nervous, anxious, jumpy, tired.

Thanks - Terese
