SUDDENLY we cat have a cat visit our home for 48 hours.

I was going to bring the cat my mother is caring for up to our condo for a 48 hour visit since we are allowed a 48 hour visit. NOW we get a note stating that WE cannot have smokey up in our condo until further notice that it is EVEN THOUGH IT IS CLEARLY STATED that pets are only allowed for visits up to 48 hours.

We get a letter address to us tonight stating smokey won't be allowed up until further notice and that ONLY DOGS are permitted for visits!


My wife wants to go to an attorney. She said according her friend they seem to be infringing on our rights as home owners. How can you have clearly stated in a billboard that pets are allow for a visit only up to 48 hours YET FORBID US TO HAVE A CAT UP IN OUR HOME!

Am I seriously completely wrong here? It seems they are purposely trying to make us sell!

Advise. If I knew how to take a picture from my phone and put it on this board. I do have the photo.


The sign posted states " Pet--no pets permitted to live in unit;visit only, up to 48 hours

Cross posting because I am livid and I need help to at least calm myself.

Just so people know. My wife went to her first counseling session.

For those who think I am making my wife up or doing Performance art. My wife is real. I only wanted advise.


My wife won't place her view points on this view (political or otherwise) because she is TOO liberal for this boards liking and would probably be called a troll.


She Has inspire me often and I do love her. I quote her often on this board because I think she is one of the smartest people I have ever met and if I talk about her or give her views on this board it is because I think her views should be known IF nothing else.


For those who don't like this please place me on ignore.

Now that I dispense with that.


My wife felt this was her issue and felt she was getting depressed so she went to a counselor because she has had times where she got depressed but it never would get this bad when we had cats. She only ever sought help once--Before we got a cat and she was this level of depression.


my wife claims this is her issue. she "Need a swift kick in the head." She said she needs to fix herself and not me.

I will respect the fact that she needs to speak to someone alone first. I will got to couples counseling when she is ready. right now she is viewing this as her issue not our joint one.

I hope others understand what she is staying.

We also have requested the pet issue be looked at by the condo association again.

Calling Mr degrasse Tyson or science minded people.

What if Pluto is a moon that was somehow knocked out of it original orbit or am I completely insane?

My wife is leaving me. She hates the condo we bought. She tried to live without a pet. She feels

the condo is not a home. We lost our cats to death and she thought she wouldn't want anymore but she is getting depressed and even though we OWN the condo this association refuses to allow pets.


I don't know how to fix it.

Do you think if there was a Reality Show that show the honest view of income inequality would

that actually get things started to help increase min wage and stop cuts to welfare programs that most help people?

How often are jurors placed under lifetime gags?

I was reading the link here and I just find it unusual that a jury be it Grand or other be placed under a lifetime gag.


Shouldn't that move had sent a warning Flag to our federal Judaical oversight?


And IF the jurors are placed in that situation shouldn't the DA have a similar gag order he has to respect?

What is the work force/employment like in your area?

I'm now in my home territory of Washington County. My wife is working through a staffing agency right now at a "temp" job. She is finding that all the ads she is answering are for staffing agencies. It seems most employers right now are going through staffing agencies and most of the time it is opened ended or a six month contract and it seems like trying to get full time with a company is VERY hard to do.


Today she came across this article on Monster.com

http://news.monster.com/a/other/five-ways-fulltime-employment-can-hurt-you-beecf7?wt.mc_n=CRM_US_B2C_NEWS_Exp_150105

Five Ways Full-Time Employment Can Hurt You and The article is from Forbes Magazine.


What the hell are corporations or business trying to do in this country? By not hiring permanent employees employers have a way to save on expenses like health insurance for workers 401K for workers and if they don't like a employee they have an easier way of getting rid of that employee by saying the work isn't there we are closing out the contract or you aren't fitting the Company's image.

But if this is the way Business is starting to become the Normal what does this do to workers not just moral wise but not being able to know next dec I will still have this job or in Feb this job is ending I don't have anything lined up. What happens to economic growth? What happens to families and the middle class ( or in my situation Working class)?
