When my late husband became sick, my mother-in-law thought it was a good idea for me to live with her and my father-in-law. She worked as an accountant and worked long hours. My father-in-law was an over the road truck driver. When he was home, we always ate together and he liked to do errands with me. I loved him dearly. During this same period, I still had the rooming house that my late husband and I had contracted. Although now there were new tenants who seemed to be less aggressive and troublesome. One of my husband’s cousins had lived with his aunt nearby. She had been adopted by his mother’s sister when their sister was killed during the Worcester tornado. She had a twin and they both lived with their aunt, her husband and their children. One of the twins who had the same first name as me was always in some type of minor trouble. She made life difficult for her mother/aunt. In fact, my mother-in-law was really annoyed because when her own mother wanted to go to the store she always called and asked for me. I was happy to oblige as she was quite nice. Finally, the adoptive parents had had enough, and the troublesome twin moved out. She drifted from place to place in the immediate area and worked at various jobs. Her sister went to college to have a career and better life. One day, my mother-in-law asked me if I had any rooms available. At the time I said no as I was at full capacity. However, a few weeks later, a boy who had run away from his pastor father from a distance of about three hours away had an epileptic fit and had to move out. I told her the twin could move in as soon as I cleaned up the room. Of course, she didn’t have to give a deposit. Things went along okay for a while. Then, true to herself, she began causing minor trouble with a few of the other tenants. Then, the inevitable happened. She lost her job and before long she fell behind in her rent. The prices were quite reasonable, and I kept the place very clean. Finally, I told my mother-in-law that if she continued to ignore her rent payments, I would have to evict her. When the day came, I knocked on her door to give her an eviction notice. She decided she had had enough, jumped out the second story window and left. I never saw her again which, frankly, was fine by me. The people in the Good Gus series owned their homes. The stories bring joy to the reader. Give an e-book a try.
