everyone for missing me! When I get home, I can't wait to read your posts and get all caught up.
Just to let you know. . . Dan's little 18-month-old dog Tucker does
NOT have cancer. It is a growing cyst that the vet said had to be removed. He offered to pay half but his ex said she did not have the money so he has agreed to pay for the full operation. I think that is awfully nice of him and I hate to admit this but I am not sure I would have done the same thing. We do crazy things when it is a dog that we love but I am so afraid she is going to use this as leverage against everything she asks him to do. I hope I'm wrong. Either way, it has to be done. Dan said the cyst has grown from pea size Memorial Day to about the size of a golf ball today. Bless his heart.
Going home to a mess and her taking so much of his stuff that she should not have, has put him in a bad mood. On top of everything else, he opened his mail and found a notice that his homeowner's
insurance (paid
through his mortgage) was going up from $1200 to $3700 a year. He called them and they are supposed to be getting quotes from other companies. I hope they find something for him. It is always something. I know that is just life.
I totally understand what he is going
through. When I told my ex that I was getting a divorce, he and my son when through the entire house and attic and took whatever they wanted of my stuff, and threw everything else on a trailer. When I got there, they would not let me in the house (which was still in my name at that time btw) and said for a $1000
non-refundable deposit, I could take the trailer to my dad's. GRRRR just thinking about it gets my BP up. See what I mean?
Sort of sad seeing my life in that trailer. Just so you know the rest of the story. I
DID NOT give him a deposit. I called my friends Gary and Paula and they came over and helped me get it to my fathers. I made a list of the things I was missing (all I could think of) but they said they could not find it and did not know where the stuff was. GRRRR again.
A bit more about me that you did not know and why I am the way I am. I can even change this to be a positive. Because of the way they both treated me, I no longer feel the need to make sure they are alright. Under different circumstances, I would have been there for both of them because that is just the kind of person I am. I feel responsible for everyone. Now, all I have to be responsible for is myself. What they took from me was just "stuff". If they can live with it. . . I can certainly live without it. That is the way I look at things. I do not wish anything bad on them but I can be happy now and just move on.
We’ve been there the last few years despite taking them in ahead for servicing. This year, we have been fortunate
Will be nice to have 5 more days, this is the 2nd longest I have been with a company
