Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Thrive to spite them
I was talking to Mom and told her that and she gasped and then said pretty much what P-C said.
I also learned that my brother didn't sell the house and can't sell the house and it's going to go into foreclosure. The house was always in my ex sister in laws name, but he got power of attorney to sell it.
She died 5 days before the house was to close and the power of attorney didn't extend past death.
Also she had no will or life insurance so there's a whole mess of probate.
The foreclosure won't hurt my brother because his name wasn't on it, but he was going to get a little money from the sale and now he's not.
Plus the buyers are out of a house, the real estate agent is out money, and a repairman is out money because payment was tied to the closing.

Oh, askye what a complete mess. Your brother and nephew continue to be in my thoughts.
Thanks everyone. I posted that quote to make sure I wasn't overreacting because I have been known to do that. And I now feel completely justified in my reaction.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm just speechless, sj. Totally not overreacting.
A mess indeed, askye. And despite the fact that everyone loses it doesn't sound like there is a solution.

Doctor was obviously not listening when I told her I needed a perscription for 4mg not 1mg. Can I have a do over for today?

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
SJ, just say "If you think you can charge me extra for something God has already taxed me on, you are sadly mistaken. Now, if you want to give me a discount as an apology, I will happily accept it. Or I may just need to do business with someone else"

Luckily for her only my real estate agent is dealing with her. It's not really worth my time or energy at this point to try to take any action against.

I was supposed to go to a Young Professionals Happy Hour tonight, but I think I used up all my social energy, and just couldn't handle a crowd.
