To make a long story short. My husband and I have 5 children. 2 his 2 mine and 1 ours. We had to move to have more room after baby. I was laid off during maternity leave and we are a family of 7 on one income which is hard right now. I owed a half months rent when we moved and tried to clean the carpets myself but they did not clean good with a rented shampooer. I havent received support from the childrens father in months and so that is gone too. My old landlord is calling and telling me that he is going to track me down if I dont call him back for the money. I havent returned his calls because I just dont know what to say. I have never been in this situation before and trying to unpack boxes and deal with 5 kids and deal with this is about to drive me nuts, I dont know what to do. I want to pay him and I have just sat down and written him a letter explaining everything to a "T" in hopes that he would understand and except my offer to pay what I owe plus to have the carpets cleaned added to it in two installments. Its the only thing that I can think of and I want to do the right thing, he was very good to me and I lived there for almost 3 years. I just feel guilty because I havent called him and I cant do it all right now. I cant talk because I have kids under me all day and it would be hard to have a phone conversation with the children under me all day. I am looking for work but havent found anything yet. I am just at my wits end and have never been in this situation before. My family cant help, they dont have the funds and I feel its my problem and I need to deal with it. I am just now sure what he means about him trackingme down. I have never heard him sound that way before and I just dont know what to do. Any advice would be appreciated!! I have been praying for the answer but I just dont know.
