spying landlords

Tweet

I recently moved into a place and after moving in, all rules set in by the landlord. take your shoes off in the house(which we do anyways, but she & who ever she brings over can track mud, etc, through the house for they don't take their shoes off), don't lock the door, i have the only key and don't change the locks. She walks in when ever she wants, even when we are asleep (my daughter woke up and found her walking around the house in 3am)when I moved in, I wasn't even in a day and she told me to have all things unpacked by the next day or she was calling the fire dept for it was a hazard,(so i threw most stuff in storage rather then unpack it)then she came in when we weren't home, called me when i did get home and told me that she better not see a towel on the bathroom floor again.(hello, they just showered and rushed to get ready for work)who forgets to pick up the towel now and then for being in a rush, i do. Then i told her i needed some christmas stuff from storage and she said no i didn't need to for i had enough colors for the holiday already in the house.(my kitchen is strawberry so i have red appliances, green dollies, etc. with strawberry decorations) She rides down the drive late at night or early in am(like 3) just to see what cars are here and if we are up, etc. and last night she stayed parked for over an hour for my daughter was up on the pc (she wants lights out by 10 for she goes to bed at 9, yeah right)she lives two houses up and there is horse fields between the two houses,but she says she knows when we are up etc for she sees the light on,(does she have a telescope spying)? My husband wants to stay, but when I paid the rent, she wanted to evict me for going on her land to pay the rent mind you. says she is a private person that I am not allowed on her property, hello, i already am, i am renting from her! anyways,she tellls me that she has others that want the place now that she can break the lease (which expires in nov)but its a bad time for her right now. but i would love to break the lease and move,but finacially we can't right now. one minute she is nice as pie, the next forget it,,demands, orders, dislikes, etc. says my 18 year old can't have friends over and got in her face and made her cry,all because my daughters friend fell into a 4ft ditch on the property & her friends new jeep was damaged bad, so the landlord was going to evict us for that(mind you, the roads are narrow due to wash outs and its private road)and she literally pushed me aways from her door for she didn't want me seeing in her house, says she is private and i was there to pay rent(only way she gets it and has to be cash)every word is if you do this you are evicted,if you don't do this you are evicted, etc. Alright already, evict us..its not a nice place, needs work, its a trailer, but the land is beautiful.wildlife in backyard almost every day. what should i do? should i break the lease like she wants? should i continue to stay and put up with her change in moods, etc. oh, she likes my husband and he can go and pay the rent etc...she has him fixing things like pulling that boulder up from the ditch when the jeep fell in,but is going after the friend for the money she supposely put in for time and materials, yet it was my husband that hooked the boulder up onto her tracktor and pulled it up,(broke his finger in process)and if he didn't help, we were getting evicted...what should i do, i am stressing everyday..
