Crazy House

A repair man called my house, "Crazy House"
We just moved in here almost three months ago. We had a rough start here in the USA.

We selected the lovely new house one week later after we arrived here. We were quiet free from worry about house until one day before we move in. There was a call from agent of lovely new house,"The previous tenant cancelled to move out. Sorry" " What? I can't understand what you said" The reason of the previous tenant will move out was that she bought a new house, but her loan didn't go through. So that's why she cancelled to move out. We were very sorry to hear that ,but.......

One week after the call of cancelling,we could find another house. That was quite far from our desired area, however it looked quite new and nice. But it was wrong. The day when we moved in, the technician of cable company came to my house six hours late. The staff of the gas company didn't come. No gas! That means no hot water. We couldn't cook. Then we had to go to the hotel to take a shower.
Next day we returned home from hotel in the morning, in the kitchen we saw many ants which we've never seen such big amount of ants. We went to the store to buy ant insecticide immediately. We were surprised that there were many insecticide in the store. Is that many ants are in the kitchen normal ? It was very hard to use insecticide without nozzle. How inconvenient it was! It is something like "Ants War". During spraying, we found black-brown water leakage from sink in the kitchen. This was another problem.

Then a repairman came every week to our house. During repairing, suddenly he needed his assistance. Then he called , "Bring new battery to that Crazy House. Do you remember that Crazy House. Do you know where the house is? ". How famous our house is ! How crazy our house is ! We were disappointed what a terrible house we moved in.

There was no time to disappoint. We should ask them to repair all the problems completely. We tried to make our house very comfortable, and perfect, not to let people call our house ,"Crazy House ".
Now there still remains "Ants War " at our house.But we 'd do not to expect perfect. Tolerance is probably one the most important attitude to enjoy the life in the USA.
