One man's story, is another man's shame...

My wife and I went to the market Saturday and when we returned she mentioned to me how much she loves our home. As we walked in the door she then said almost in a whisper, "I hope we don't lose our home." This made me think about how hard we have worked, how much we have sacrificed to get this place. It made me think about how every year we have to pay more and more just to stay here. Her sad whisper made me think that although we don't have a whole lot, what we do have in this home is just as important to us as any rich man's mansion is to him.

I picked up my daughter and gave her a hug thinking I was hiding my pain. I tried to think of some words that might comfort my wife. I could find none.

Rumors were going around the park this weekend about another eviction and letters threatening legal action being sent to some residents by Mobile Community Management.

62%-38%

Prop. 98 was voted down by voters on Tuesday.

62% no...38% yes.

Ouch! That had to have hurt.
