Have you ever wanted something so bad!!!!! email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 100/100. rosepedal64 (1526)   ranked 14 out of 19,534 in questions & answers3 months ago

Hello mylotters
For some of you might know that I have been trying to find a place to rent before winter hits us. We currently are living in our camper and it is taking a toll on me with the cold weather coming on. So a couple of weeks ago we decided to start looking for a place to rent. This past Saturday we had an appointment to look at a Mobile Home. We went and we both fell in love with this place. It is out in the country and has 12 acres of land, gargage,outbuildings and a real nice mobile home. The lady that is renting it took our name and some references and said that she had others coming to look at it and she would let us know if we get to rent it. I have been so nervous over this that it is unreal. I want this place so bad. I feel like that because I want it so bad that she will choose someone else to live there. You know to want something so bad that you just know that you cant have it. Has anyone felt like this before? Do you think that I am just expecting the worse? Tell me what you think.

My situation is far more different, but everyone has had something they wanted so bad that they cant have. But you just have to have a little hope and faith with trying to get what you want. Maybe it's not the right time for you to get what you want yet, since there are a lot more things to be done in the present for a more positive future. Not everyone gets what they want in the present, it shall come in time when they're ready. It won't be the exact place, but you'll eventually get what you want soon enough just try not to expect too much out of the situation and just relax. And live in the present.

Hi LifeGuru
Thanks for that. I really needed some positive thoughts to help me get thru this. I know that I need to patient and have some faith to go with that too. I just hope that she will allow us to be the ones to rent this trailer. It is like the perfect place for us both. Thanks again for sharing and have a great evening my friend.

oh yes I have also Rosepedal64 but mine did not happen, but you
have as much chance as any of the others so think positively, I am going to get this mobile home. yes when we were evicted and this English internet friend of my son kept telling us she would pay the rent on a two br.room apt in Antioch Ca for us for 3 months so my son would have time to get a job. I wanted that so badly. the only thing is that even after she had signed an agreement to the manager of the apts. she reneged at the last moment and told the manager to tear up the agreement.This was sickening in that it threw us right out on to the street. Of course now I am in this Retirement center which is still better than being homeless, and my son, my only family,is in a gov. sponsored apt with three other men all of whom are looking for
work. so its not what we wanted but at least we are not out on the street.


myLot reputation of 100/100. rosepedal64 (1526)   ranked 14 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

Oh my gosh Hatley
That sounds terrible for her to have done you guys that way. I will also tell you to keep your head high and things will work out for you too. I really appreciate you sharing this with me. I wish only the best for you. Im just glad that you have somewhere to live. I will be thinking of you and you keep smiling.

Hi rose

Yes I know exactly what your saying here. I have wanted a million things in my life SO BAD. Some I get some I do not. I hope you get this place I cannot imagine living in a camper in the winter or for that matter at all. Winters here can get really bad, cold ice snow wind everything you can imagine. Let us know if you get the place.


myLot reputation of 100/100. rosepedal64 (1526)   ranked 14 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

Hi caroll
It is hard to live in the camper. We had to do this back when hubby got laid off. His unemployment checks was only covering the loans and credit card payments that we have. We had no chance to do anything different. Now that he has been back to work for a month now and with the winter coming just around the corner, we knew that we had to find somthing. When I looked at this place my heart just sank. It was differently something that I wanted. Thanks for sharing and I will let you know as soon as I know. Keep your fingers crossed for me. Have a great evening and keep smiling.

ohhhhh rosepedal how I wish that it works out and how I wish you get that place for you and hubby. How I wish I could help you. I hope the virtual candle I lit for you works somehow.

Hey book
I just the phone call from the lady..WE GOT THE TRAILER...YEAAAAAA...Im so excited and tickled. I have to meet with her on Tuesday to sign the papers and get the keys. This is some painting that needs to be done and we told her that we would finish the painting. So she is going to take some off the deposit amount for painting..Isn't that great..Oh Im so happy..When I get moved in I will send you some pictures...

 

myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14766)   ranked 2,993 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

ohhhh rosepedal I am doing the happy dance for you as I was really worried about you living in that trailer in the cold. How long will you need for the painting and for moving your stuff there? Will that mobile home really be better and warmer for you, really hope so.


myLot reputation of 100/100. rosepedal64 (1526)   ranked 14 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

Hi book
The lady was telling us that the utility room needed to be painted. That is all the painting that needs to be done. I go over there tomorrow and go over the paper work and sign the lease. Then she will release the keys to us. I will probably start the painting process toward the end of this week. The electric and water is already on but I have to put it into our name. I don't know what the deposits are on those yet. Im going to call about that a little later on. Im up this morning bright eyed and bushy tail ready to start on the packing process. Although there wont be much packing from here. All my bigger stuff is in storage. Thanks for sharing your happiness with me. Keep smiling.


myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14766)   ranked 2,993 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

hi rosepedal thats great news from you mainly that there will not be a giant painting action coming your way now but its only a small one. Hope that move goes swiftly and you can get some of your stuff out from the storage as well.
have a wonderful week, dear, and I am so excited about you getting that place.


myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14766)   ranked 2,993 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  2 months ago

Hi rosepedal, I really hope you get the place you want to rent as a camper van doesn't sound too good for winter and you need a bit more floor space to clean and keep you happy. Remember that one? You just have to keep your feet on the ground and keep looking in case you don't get it.

I know what it feels like to want something so bad, but I didn't get it.


myLot reputation of 100/100. rosepedal64 (1526)   ranked 14 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

Hi thea
I just got the call and we did get the trailer..YEAAAAAAA...Im so happy right now that I can't hardly type. I guess good things do come to good people. I was ever so thankful for this. It is such a pretty place. I truly love it. It has everything on the outside for the hubby and then it has everything on hte inside for me. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I greatly appreciate it. Have a great day and keep smiling..


myLot reputation of 97/100. thea09 (4908)   ranked 121 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

Hey rosepedal, congratulations, glad you got the mobile home you wanted, enjoy all that extra floor space to clean. happy

So, any idea when the big move is?


myLot reputation of 100/100. rosepedal64 (1526)   ranked 14 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

Hi thea
I was just telling book that I go over tomorrow and sign the lease papers. If all goes well it might actually be this weekend. That is my goal. It will depend on the money that I will need to transfer all the utilities in my name. I will let you know how soon. Thanks for sharing your excitement with me. Have a great day and keep smiling..


myLot reputation of 97/100. thea09 (4908)   ranked 121 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

Wow that soon. I'd say you need to get off here and start packing. Hope there's an internet connection for you there. happy


myLot reputation of 100/100. rosepedal64 (1526)   ranked 14 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

Thanks thea
Im looking into that today on the internet connection. It better have connection or I will have to find another way to get that done. I will know more information after I go over there tomorrow. Thanks again for sharing my excitement with me. Oh yeah Im really looking forward in having more space to clean..Doesn't that sound strange..LOL

It is a buyers market for mobile homes right now so do not despair. I hope this one works out for you but if it does not, you will find another. I've seen people buy them in this market for less than the first and last month's rent and deposit would cost on an apartment!


myLot reputation of 100/100. rosepedal64 (1526)   ranked 14 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

Hi drannhh
I got the news last night that we did get the trailer. I am so excited about it that I have had a smile on my face since then. It is Monday morning here right now and I still have the big smile on my face. I just can't wait to get those keys and plan on moving. It probably will be this weekend if all goes the right way. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and have a great week. Keep smiling.


myLot reputation of 95/100. drannhh (7586)   ranked 2,883 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. That is just FANTABULOUS. What more can I say. I am so happy for you! Enjoy it very much. You will be able to have a wonderful garden there!


myLot reputation of 100/100. rosepedal64 (1526)   ranked 14 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

Oh yes...A garden...I have wanted to that for so long, and now I will be able to do that this spring..Another thing is that I will be able to put up my christmas tree and all the decorations. I will let you know when we get start to move in it. I go meet with her today..Im still smiling and you keep smiling as well.

The way i look at it is if you expect the worst then any thing that happens will not shock you or upset you.I expected the worst about the house we are living in and we got this one.We had to put an offer in and our offer was slightly better than a few other peoples offer that they had put in.So good luck i hope you get it.Let me know.

Hi jugs
I did start thinking that we wouldn't get it just for the reason that you said.
Then last night I got the phone call from her. She has decided to let us rent the trailer. She said that she liked my attitude and thought that we would take care of the place. I was so excited that I was jumping around like crazy. I cant wait to go meet with her to get those keys. I will let you know what comes about now.

Personally if it was me, and you are a Praying person, I would be Praying about it and asking God for his will in this situation. It does sound like a nice place and if you can really afford it this would be a Great thing for you as well. Just don't get too upset if someone else gets it, and keep trying. When you find the place you are supposed to have, it will happen.


myLot reputation of 100/100. rosepedal64 (1526)   ranked 14 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

Hi Krause
Thanks for those kind words, and you are very right. If it is meant to be then it will happen.
Well I guess it was meant to be. She called us last night and said that she decided that she wanted us to rent her property. I was so excited. I go over there on Tuesday and sign the papers and get the keys.
Keep smiling and have a great day.

Think positive until you have reason not to. I was stuck living in a tent and then a camper for months with 3 small children. I was so so anxious to find a place it wasn't funny. I actually NEEDED to find a place by the time school started because a camper is not considered a legal address and my oldest daughter needed a legal address to start school. Also it was getting pretty darn cold. I tossed pride aside and literally begged various landlords to rent to me. I got a place and it wasn't one I'd have chosen under any other circumstances but it was a roof over our heads and it had running water and heat and it was home. It wasn't the home of my dreams but it was better than the camper so I took it. I hope you get this place. In the meantime, keep looking. happy


myLot reputation of 100/100. rosepedal64 (1526)   ranked 14 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

Hi sid
So you really know what Im going thru by livng in this camper. It is no fun at all to have live in one at all.
Butttt, the lady did call me last night and said that she had choosen us to rent this trailer. I was tickled that I jumped up and gave my husband a big hug and was smiling for so long. Heck Im still smiling..
Thanks for your kind words and I hope that things work out for you too. Keep smiling.


myLot reputation of 95/100. sid556 (10895)   ranked 2,555 out of 19,534 in questions & answers  3 months ago

yes, I do know about the camper life. It was heaven at first as we'd been living in a tent. Trust me...it got old fast. Well, I'm so happy for you that you got the trailer! Congratulations! Me....that situation was a long time ago. I still remember it clearly and never ever want to be in that spot again. I remember when I finally got a place we were so so excited. Just to have running water and real beds! Have fun packing and moving. Sounds like this will be an exciting move for you!thumbup
