It’s freeeeezing in my apartment! But I refuse to turn on a space heater. Extra layers and blankets will do… praying for the families!
Landlords collecting rent and not providing heat … where is the law when you need it
@RedSpider83765 don’t give them their rent and hold on to it, bet you they’ll provide heat right away!
This is such a sad thing... I keep seeing fires back to back.. LORD I pray no one was injured
People use heaters when the heat isn’t adequate. Pray they are ok.
