Our Lease Is Up

Tomorrow Junior and I have to go and resign our lease on the apartment. I am pretty sure we are going to resign, just not for a full year. We have the option of signing for six months or a year, and I am thinking we are going to do it for the six months. That way, if they don't want to do the Roof Repair this apartment desperately needs, we can move in February, when we have our tax refund to help with moving expenses. I have a feeling they may just suggest Roof Cleaning but I don't believe that will fix the problem. I think we need to have Roofing Contractors who know what they are doing come out and take a look. The maintenance man they have sent out in the past patches the hole, but it never lasts long. I don't understand why they don't just fix it properly, and then there won't be any more problems.

I also want to request that they send in someone to paint over all the water damage, or reimburse me for buying paint and doing it myself. I have water streaks all over the ceiling and walls, and to be honest, it's kind of ugly to look at. I hope they will make these repairs, because as cramped as we are, I don't want to move right now. I like our yard, I like the kid bus driver, and I don't want to pack up all of my elephants again. Do you have any idea how long that takes?
