Bank to very enjoyable, real spring-like weather, in Atlanta #realspring82 and sunny here today. 80% chance of snow of Sunday.
The fees are ridiculous! We have stayed for years at a place that has several small cabins. Last year they decided to start Airbnb it instead. The nightly rate has now doubled with the fees. And the rules are crazy. We always washed our dishes before and I thought their fee of $25 for unwashed dishes was perfectly fine. Two years ago I even set mousetraps for them when we had a critter visit us (it happens, no big deal, they even thanked us for being understanding as the last person who saw one apparently ripped them. I got it. It is hard to control when the weather changes, etc). But now they have removed their longterm manager who would bend over backwards for you and replaced it with a management company who is terrible. Their reviews have went way down. I just don’t get it. We will miss staying here but have moved on to something new.OMG right? Hey it will only cost you $300 for 4 nights but we'll charge you $700 in cleaning fees and by the way you need to strip the beds, start the laundry, make sure the dishwasher is full and empty your own trash.
And I wish I were kidding......
Our normal temps aren’t expected until mid next week. Might be cold enough for a few flurries with the expected precipitation if it shows up. Today it is supposed to be about 85. I’m missing spring even though I love the heat of the summer.82 and sunny here today. 80% chance of snow of Sunday.
Our county property appraiser has started a notification service if your tuttis changed. It however is reactionary as it only triggers if it was changed. It at least lets you know to get on the paperwork trail to get whatever scammer is trying to steal your house or get money out of it by mortgaging it a lot sooner. Unfortunately this is a new scam that you can’t stop and just hope it doesn’t happen to you as it will be a huge hassle to untangle. It’s also happening with rental properties with fake leases and then they can’t get the “tenants” removed by the cops it has to go through the courts which can take months. It’s awful that we have to even think of all the ways we can be scammed.
I have a few playlists. My husband has been making travel playlists for our family since our children were young. They started on CDs and now Spotify. Now that our boys are older, my husband's one request for the holidays is for each of them to make him a playlist with their favorite songs of the past year.
Airbnb story - rented a very swanky new cabin in the mountains. Outrageously high cleaning fee.
The icing on the cake: a tip envelope for the cleaning crew (I WAS the cleaning crew lol) AND my daughter found a pair of handcuffs under the pull out living room couch.
Fun times
Wow, that's pretty nervy! I would have left a note, "thanks for the tip!" and used your "tip money" (from yourself) to buy a nice lunch.Airbnb story - rented a very swanky new cabin in the mountains. Outrageously high cleaning fee.

My daughter is waiting for the U.K. tour dates to be announced. We saw her in Manchester a few years ago and she put on a brilliant show.
We did this with my wife's 98 year old grandpa's funeral. We somehow turned it into an extended family beach resort trip
