Decisions, Decisions

[carynb]

I'm sitting here with Form N9 - Tenant's Notice to Terminate Tenancy - in front of me, all filled out and ready to go. Do I sign it, and go through the whole moving process? If I move to the area I'd like to, I'll be farther away from work, but in a much better neighbourhood.

My current landlord is being pretty insistent that I sign a new one-year lease when my rent increase comes up in May, and I really don't want to. I know I don't have to sign, but they're also saying that they've applied for a larger increase than the standard 2%, and I think they'll get it. However, the fact that they've done considerable upgrades to the public areas doesn't change the fact that my the people in my building do things like let their dogs use the stairwell as a bathroom on cold days.

The very thought of having to look for a new place, though? It's giving me knots in my stomach. I Hate change.

Decisions, decisions. I'm probably going to pass in the notice with my rent cheque tomorrow. Here's hoping I don't chicken out a the last minute. *g*

I couldn't afford anywhere with things I could walk to (because we were looking to buy, and do without the whole landlord thing altogether), but I'm happy that I can now take transit when the weather is crappy. Although the bus home from the subway leaving only every half hour could be better.
