Moving Day for Danny

Well, the moving day is over and he is all safe (hopefully) and sound in the frat house at UNL.  I did bring my camera but was so appalled at the sight of his floor and room that I couldn't bring myself to take any photos.  Let me paint you a picture... you see those big beautiful fraternity and sorority houses on tv and they are really pretty and well taken care of... well, it seems that his house didn't get that memo.  Now I know that it is a house full of 44 young men, and having had one of those young men living in our house, cleaning the bathroom or picking up trash on your floor wasn't at the top of the list.  But not having a door knob, a working lock or a fixed window is unacceptable.  So is having holes punched in the wall and broken furniture laying around.  Now back in my college days, our houses were relatively clean and unbroken, and if it was broken it was fixed before a new person moved in!  Times are different I suppose.  The boys don't seem to mind or care.  All of them! I wanted to run screaming from this house. With the help of Danny's roommate parents, we were able to give them a door lock, board up the broken window and secure the ac unit to the window sill. According to the frat president, the house manager/ maintenance guy will fix the door knob this week. Not holding my breath on that one...at least they have a working deadbolt with keys. Let the learning commence!
