If it's not one thing, it's another!

Three months ago Alicia and her family moved into her new apartment.  Her apartment (Fourplex) was recently sold and when inspections were being done they found that the previous renter in Alicia's apartment was cooking meth and because of that her apartment and the one next to her are contaminated with meth.  Therefore, she has had to move out and stay in a hotel for the next three to four weeks so that Utah Has mat can come and clean the apartment.

The worst part of this is that she could not keep any of her furniture, or any thing that was made of wood or fabric; such as tables, couches, mattresses, etc.  So the furniture we got her just three months ago when she was evicted from her other apartment because of beg bugs had to be taken to the dump.  Luckily, the mattresses that the Bishop got her from DI, she never took the plastic cover off, so she can keep those.

Barbara and I spent a Saturday afternoon two weeks ago taking two loads of furniture and personal things to the city dump as well as moving other things to a storage shed that the new landlord is paying for while the apartments are cleaned and the meth contamination is removed from the walls, floorings, and air ducks.

When Alicia called to tell us this development we immediately went to see her and to help calm her down.  While we were there I received an email notice that a couch, loveseat, and oversized chair...a matching seat was just posted on our resource website.  I immediately called and we now have the furniture in our garage waiting for to give it to Alicia when she is able to move back in.  The Lord and His tender mercies!
