Last night, we discovered that the pilot for our heater had gone out for the second time in a week. We only discovered the issue when trying to use the heater in the past week to try and heat up the apartment with the weather getting a little colder.
With the pilot going out for the second time just a couple of days after having the landlord have to stop by to fix it, we have been growing more concerned about our safety and the safety of our unborn child. We started looking for a new apartment. Our current issue is that our present place is priced quite a bit lower than anything we can currently find in any of the areas that we are willing to move to.
We looked at a townhouse today that was no bigger than this place. It may even be a little smaller. It also is a bit more expensive (actually something in the range of 600 dollars more). It wasn't all bad, the windows were very well insulated, all the outlets were grounded (three pronged) and the bathroom was not carpeted; just for starters.
We definitely have some thinking to do about our living conditions and investigate our options. We will let everyone know what we finally decide to do.
