How Did I Miss THAT?

Water heater is installed. I think we are golden.

The cats were quiet, all cat fluffs were thrown away in the upstairs bins. I feel confident that our landlord did not suspect a thing.

Except for the fact that I forgot about the gigantic scratching post next to our bed. How in the world did I miss that?

I suppose it is one of the deals where you see something everyday--until you just stop seeing it. So if my landlord is blind as a bat, we are fine. I figure I have about a two week window where he could write up some kind of notice and mail it to us. If we do not receive anything by then, I think we are in the clear. Keeping my fingers crossed...

Maybe you also got lucky and it's a handy man who doesn't tattle. I'll keep my fingers crossed for ya!

Ummm...it was the handy man AND the landlord who put the water heater in together. LOL Thanks for keeping your fingers crossed, though. I am hoping he is a cool guy and realizes that if we have been here two years without their knowing that it is no big deal. The main this is that our HOA rules state that renters are not allowed to have pets. Blech.

You are braver than I to sneak in the cats. I was always too afraid of getting caught. Plus mine like to sit in the windows so they are hard to hide.

I guess if you get caught you can just pack up and move south!

You are so funny! You thought you were slick and you forgot the biggest thing behind. I am sure you are fine but I will keep my fingers crossed, too!

Maybe he thinks that post is really for something else that might happen in your bedroom. (And, no, I don't know what, but that seemed like a reasonable excuse for him not noticing.)

I am hoping the piles of SHIT stacked up in every corner and on the computer desk helped him not notice! LOL
