A dehumidifier of all things. Have I left it too long? I’m not even sure she still has it.
A few years ago I was a single mum to my eldest. We lived in this tiny one bed flat with a huge damp problem and the landlord refused to do anything about it. But whatever that’s the point of this post. I bought a dehumidifier to help, at the time buying one was hard as like I said single mum. They are expensive and I’m pretty sure my grandparents helped me to buy it.
During my last few weeks in my old flat before moving in with OH. Mil asked if she could borrow said dehumidifier as she had a leak. She said she would bring it back.
She didn’t. I moved out and didn’t really need so I to be honest I completely forgot about it.
Years have gone by. I’ve probably left it too late to ask for it back but we are suffering from mould and condensation in our house in which we own so we need to sort the problem ourselves.
Aibu to ask for it back? OH said we will just buy new as his mum can be a bit funny about things but my grandparents paid for most of it. It was a decent one too. Surely it’s rightfully mine?
Saying that, I’ve never seen it as Mil’s house. She has probably broke or battered it.
It seems trivial worrying about it but I never gave it to her, it was lent to her.
