It seems fitting to start this journal on Friday the 13th. I got married on Friday the 13th and it has always been my lucky day.
We had to go to small claims court for the first time in our lives this week.My husband had just started a job and was having a grading guy put in a driveway when the owners decided to stop the job.
That was fine with us because we had a bad feeling about these people. We were right. They decided to sue us and the grading guy for $7000 each and we don't really know why.
They hired a different guy and he put in a different driveway over the septic area and it cost him $7000.
I guess he wants us to pay for his drive.
I was prepared to handle the whole thing and had great notes and lots of paperwork to show the judge.
But the judge would not let me say a word, and my husband was a nervous wreck and had little to say.
We will know the verdict next week. I sure would hate to pay out $7000 for a job in which my husband made about $500.
I think we will stick to building spec houses!!
