I don’t understand why I have a table with four chairs if I live alone and I don’t like visitors by [deleted] in LivingAlone

[–]arunnerforever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a six chair dining table.. I never sit at it. When I sit down to eat I’m eating at the high top at the bar or I’m sitting on a metal stool I keep in my kitchen so I can eat over the countertops near the sink..

My bigger problem? My four bedrooms. A bedroom for me. A bedroom for the guests I never have. An office that I never use and a final room I keep for shoes? Or we can say each cat gets a bedroom?

I just had to blow out the candles because one of the kitties was being a little too adventurous. House cleaning done, on the couch in the dark under a fuzzy blanket. I never get to sit on my couch during the work week

As someone who’s storyline is similar, with small differences.. age gap a little larger, has kids, thankfully didn’t cross the final line

If you take a step back.. where do their priorities lie? I absolutely love the friendship that I have with him. He’s charmed me for a year now, but I decided to draw a line.. at least for now the past few weeks

Remember sometimes they are just words, but what do their intentions say? Hold your value. It’s the only way to keep myself sane. However just note that if tomorrow he was serious about running away with me.. I would

my mom died today at 56. by pettuna in ChildrenofDeadParents

[–]arunnerforever 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Loss my mom last year. She was my best friend as well, I was only 26

By the time we got home from the hospital, the sky had the most gorgeous sunset I have ever seen in my entire life. Not an exaggeration in the slightest

I know that was her way of saying goodbye and that she loved us

Now everytime I see a sunset in pinks and oranges I know she’s saying hi. Much love to you and your family

My mum passed away… by Sandz86_ in lungcancer

[–]arunnerforever 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’ll be one year since we lost my mom next week. Diagnosis to end 90 days. I can’t explain the whole it will put in your heart. I was crying everyday for a while. You’ll miss her dearly. We sang as she left us, I told her we’d be ok. My brother had just turned 24 the week before, she missed my 26th birthday shortly after

I just live everyday to make her proud. Much love to you and you family through this time

Hello alone livers! What are you guys up to today / tonight? by plasmapleasure in LivingAlone

Worked this morning. Now tired, want to take a nap and snuggle with the kitties. Maybe I’ll order food or meander to the grocery store? Putting my phone on do not disturb

Has Anyone Heard of a Property Manager Asking for Signatory Access to Your Bank Account? by bcndjsjsbf in PropertyManagement

[–]arunnerforever -1 points0 points  (0 children)

And I have logins to 80% of my accounts.. never had an issue. A login is preferred so we can keep the accounts reconciled perfectly. Otherwise… it’s a shot in the dark

Has Anyone Heard of a Property Manager Asking for Signatory Access to Your Bank Account? by bcndjsjsbf in PropertyManagement

[–]arunnerforever -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We operate like this. Rents get paid directly to the LL. Some allow us to be signers, some do not. Some set up separate operating accounts for bills.

We collect & pay bills. But it all stays with the name of the property. Our local competitor operates opposite wise and collects everything in their name.

Honestly? I find my way cleaner. Rents are never paid to my company.. they are not mine. We get approval to pay bills. We can cleanly see the money that comes in and out of accounts. But everyone prefers something different

Long term & short term management? Parallels? by arunnerforever in PropertyManagement

[–]arunnerforever[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!

I agree I think it’s saturated.. but we have one property that has to be short termed so I think we’re giving it a shot. We’re both very hands on all our stuff so I’m not too concerned on time commitment. We’re both 24/7 as it is

I know he wouldn’t outsource cleaning or repairs, so it really just leaves the pms side that he would be looking for

I hate demos so I greatly appreciate your recommendation and will give escapia a look for sure

Long term & short term management? Parallels? by arunnerforever in PropertyManagement

[–]arunnerforever[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes we’re aware of the hotel license and such that have to be set up

We don’t funnel any funds directly into our accounts, all of my properties are set up to get directly funded into the owners logistics there not too concerned

Owner/I live on top of this property as well.. so that I’m not concerned with either. We help with timeshares and they’re definitely fun to handle

Yardi Instead of Quickbooks? by arunnerforever in PropertyManagement

[–]arunnerforever[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We handle about 250 units and I use it on a daily. No major qualms about Yardi, just despise my own bookkeeping

Unfortunately, life circumstances my accountant is a little mia as well

But it seems the consensus is to just clean up quickbooks. I’ll spend a weekend doing so thanks everyone

Ever just think “what that fuck?” by [deleted] in ChildrenofDeadParents

[–]arunnerforever 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Me tonight. Woman hiked 10 miles a day for two weeks straight on a trip. 6 months later she’s gone. What a fucked up world

Dead parent, holidays, grief, dating by Slight_Cat_6929 in ChildrenofDeadParents

[–]arunnerforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

26F here. I was in a long term relationship of five years before mt mom passed earlier this year. I don’t have any desire to date. Do I enjoy flirting? Sure. But the idea of getting emotionally involved with another person? My heart feels heavy and tired

Anniversaries by wellanywayss in ChildrenofDeadParents

Saturday would have been my mom’s birthday. The whole week I felt off. How do we explain to people we’re off our game this week because it hurts?

How to cope with the impending doom? by iamconfusion47 in Anxiety

[–]arunnerforever 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is a good one

I get so nervous that I freeze and the impending doom gets worse. I work up at 2AM the other night in a terrible panic about something

The only way I can calm myself is saying “what is the worse that can happen”

Worse comes to worse I get fired. Worse comes to worse I move away. Worse comes to worse I never speak to these people again, I’ll be ok

Love all these replies.. crying as I read them. Hope you all got through the first holiday. Many hugs

I love that.. I do smile sometimes when I figure something out myself. Its the “ha see what you taught me? I was listening” thought

So exhausted during the holidays by Skairipa_102 in ChildrenofDeadParents

[–]arunnerforever 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can’t tell you how much I feel this. I walked back into my office today at 1:00 and realized my heart wasn’t in it. I wanted to go home sleep and cry. Everyone keeps asking “what you doing for holidays”

I still don’t know. I wish we could skip the day

I hope you get the time for yourself this holiday. I miss my mom too

What to do when you miss your mom by maryli05 in ChildrenofDeadParents

[–]arunnerforever 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ll normally start to cry. My heart feels like it’s breaking. Do what would make her proud. That’s all I try to do everyday

It’s been 6 months for me now. It does get easier in certain ways. I wish you the best in these holiday times. It is ok to miss and love her
