Yet another long time

On the 21st of March, we moved into our house. It is nice. It is too big. I hate cleaning it. It is a 2 story 3 bedroom/2.5 bathroom with a 2 car garage and a BIG kitchen. The selling points were: 1-RONNIE WANTED IT (and apparently nothing else needs to be said), 2-2 car garage.....(4 wheelers), 3-3 BIG kitchen. I like the house. It is big though and I don't think we need this much.

After the packers left and boxes were pretty much everywhere I attempted to washig dishes while Ronnie worked on washing sheets for the bed. The dish washer had run throught 2 cycles and I was drying stuff off. I noticed however, that there was NO HOT WATER in the faucet. We noticed that the dryer was not getting hot either. Suddenly, like a 1/2 ton of bricks.....WE HAVE NO GAS!

We go talk to the real estate agent and he told us that we should have a full tank. So he called the property manager and they told him that we have to pay for it. So frustrated (for the 1st time) me pays 127 dollars for 100 pounds of propaine. They deliver that day! We now have hot water.

Ronnie goes back to work the next day and I am on leave still so I clean and unpack and put things away followed by cleaning, unpacking, and putting things away. So much fun.

We went to this home expo and paid the trash people. They charge 30 bucks a month to come a pick up our trash......whatever....it has to be done. They tell us the tote-a-cart will be dropped off on Monday. Tuesday at lunch roles around and no cart. So I go to thier office. I now find out that trash should be covered in the rent and the property owner has might have already taken care of it. This took 2 trips to the trash office to find out becuase no one seemed to know what was the deal. The cart will be dropped off today or tomorrow. Wednesday about 1 comes around....NO CART. Frustrated (for the second time) me goes back to the office. They give me a refund for the month we paid for becuase the property owner did infact take care of the trash. The cart was dropped off....why did I not get it. So I tell them that I will go and LOOK for this cart and they want me to take it from the house where they dropped it off and bring it to it's correct home. I did not see the cart. So I called them and they found it and brought it over. Should the PROPERTY MANAGER be taking care of all of this?

Ronnie had a phone in the barracks. We transfered the line to the house. We had to change the number. No problem. We were told about 3 days. 5 days later....we called them. There are no phone lines to the HOUSE! They have to 'run' them from the box to the house which we have to pay for. Then they have to come and run the lines though the house because the contractors were lazy cheap bastards that could not spend the 50 dollars on a spool of line that they probably could have done 3 or 4 houses with. They come to run the lines 3 weeks after we move in. The contractors miss labeled the boxes out side for the phone and cable. The phone guys run the phone lines through the house anyway because it is not that big of a deal and the contractors are working on a house like half a block away. The phone guys leave to find the 'box' with the 'switch' to turn on the phone. They tell the contractor to come to the house and fix the box that is labeled wronge. The contractor does not speack or understand english. Him and Ronnie argue for about 20 minutes becuase he is telling us that the phone guys did it wrong. The contractor then CUTS all the lines the phone guys ran through the house. Phone guys come back, get mad, like the frustrated (for the third time) me, re-run the lines, turn on the phone and leave. We now have a phone.
