Crazy Landlady - Why Me?

captain53 · 05-12-2010, 10:17 PM

I am open to any kind of soothing comments or similar war stories. I rented my cabin in the Ozarks while up here on a 2 year work project. I rented it from a really nice real estate guy but right after the deal was all done the widow woman owner wanted to fire him saying he cheated her.... long story short he said she did not have to fire him he wanted nothing else to do with her and quickly proved with cancelled checks to the board of realtors and the real estate commission auditors that he had not only paid her but she owed him money.

Anyway she owns a place across the road and used to never come down here (she lives in St Louis these are camps) but now she has started staying down here a lot and bugging the crap out of me about her problems. Quickly realized she is totally crazy and her grown children came down and last one leaving told don't call him till she gets some professional counseling. She calls me all the time wanting to know if her son has been down here and last trip said her son had been in her house and stole her butcher knife, now he lives in St Louis 3 hours away and I have not seen him anywhere since he told her to get some help. Long drive for a butcher knife, and last visit he told me he was sorry I was stuck here putting up with her.

Recently I discovered she had used a key to get into my place while I was out of town so I changed the locks to simplify that as my lease was up the end of April but she wanted me to re-lease so I paid her May rent figuring I would look for another place. Tonight she came over here at 9:30 beating on my door yelling and screaming to get out of her house and she could come in any damn time she wanted to because it was her property.......... a maniac!!!!

I told her to go call the police if she wanted to but she was not getting her crazy arse in this house. Man, thanks for listening and what did I do to deserve this?
