My first to move to I was renting a room in a house in the basement of a divorced lady and her two preteen kids. We were all pretty quiet. I had a room in the basement which I pretty much just stayed in most of the time when I was home. Except for when I would go upstairs to get food or put groceries away.
I had a private bathroom downstairs too. She said that I could use this one corner in the big laundry room for storage.
I went out early one Saturday morning on the 27th of the month and met a friend , we went back there a few hours later to see they were having a yard sale with my belongings! I asked her why she went into my stuff in storage and in my room and was selling a lot of my stuff and she said because I had not paid the rent yet! Huh? it wasn't even due yet!
I called the police they came out and took a report while she was still there selling my stuff! And they said that they would be in touch. My friend got a truck and we removed what I had left and went to my mom's house.
I never heard from the police and when I would call them I was told that someone would call me. Never happened. I lost a lot of my late grandmother's antique china, clothes, some furniture, other dishes and keep sakes.
I found out a few months later that the landlady was dating the police chief, she sold the house and they all moved away from this area!

That sucks big time! Life is so unfair sometimes.
