I am one very happy individual this afternoon and I have been dancing on my deck for the last hour over some news that I have heard.
It seems that the bankruptcy claim that Rip's wife (ow) filed back in August of 2010 and approved in court in January 2011 has been processed and now the mortgage leader is on the move. When Rip purchased his townhome after we divorced in 2002, the mortgage was only in his name. Well, after he married wifey, he refinanced and put her name on the mortgage as co-owner. Well, it appears that her bankruptcy claim has been attached to the mortgage. With her death and the fact that she's been in bankrupt status for three years, it appears that the bank is coming after the townhome now.
What I have found funny, is that Rip told me a month ago that he was going to take some time and go away for a while, but didn't know where he was going. He doesn't know that I know about the bankruptcy and I put two and two together. Today he's in his former home town which is exactly 3 hours from me looking at houses because a friend of mine saw him and inquired as to why he was looking at houses in the area. I can only assume that he will only be able to rent since he will have no equity in the home that is being foreclosed on. I'm sure he's not shared his financial status w/anyone and he would die if he knew I knew. So, I'm just sitting back waiting for him to tell me that he's moving because he has too many reminders of wifey around, etc. This man will never admit failure.
I'm glad he's moving back to his home area because he is currently living in Annapolis and that is only 1 hour away from me...which is too close for comfort. He has reconnected w/some of his high school friends and cousins that he's had very little contact w/over the years.
If this move takes place, I will finally be able to breathe and know that he will most likely never return to my area.
Lady Karma has done her job and proven to him that you can't go out there and spend and spend and never have to be accountable for your actions. This is a man who had it all and has turned out to be just like his father in more ways than one. I'm thankful each and every day that his crisis hit and took him up on the Mother Ship. Had he stayed, I most likely would have killed him w/my bare hands.
I can't wait to hear from him that he's moving. I just might have to send him a "welcome to your new home" flower arrangement when he moves. LOL!
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
T, It's taken 14 years to get to this stage in his life. This is a person who said when they left that they wanted excitement, plays, ballet (yes, he even said he wanted to go to see some ballet), he wanted to be closer to the bars and hangouts to enjoy drinking and meeting new people. Now, he's looking a places in his home town, which is just about as active as my area. He will have to travel some distance for those shows and plays if he moves there. LOL!
I see this as a positive for Rip. He's going back home and has begun reconnecting w/former classmates and family he's not been close to his entire life. I hope and pray that this is what he needs to resolve his demons and find some inner peace.
Me? I'm going to relish this news and plan to have some bubbly this evening. This has been the best news that I could received, besides winning the million dollar lottery!
As for my knee, well, it's tough and believe me, it's in great shape for that dancing!
Life is good and karma does come into play when she's ready.

I am very happy for you job! You seem happy that rip am be starting to face his reality and I hope he is. Enjoy your bubbly and the dancing :-) maybe this will be the start of him seeing the light on the otherwise of the tunnel

Job, I'm dancing right along with you!!!! It's time for him to wake up. Moving to his home town might save him from a living the rest of his life circling earth. He's been on the Mothership far to long. Even HE has to be tired of it.
I can't wait to hear how he explains the move when he contacts you. Lady Karma does have a way of showing up when you least expect her.
Keep us posted.

Bea, You know me very well. He did a lot of major damage and destruction along the way. I did forgive him for that, but there are some things that you can't forget that transpired, i.e., like the deputies escorting him to my home to get a plastic Easter Egg. Wonder if he'll pack that thing up to take w/him. LOL!
Life hasn't been too kind to him, but he's not one to ever admit he did anything wrong. Even though he has always been adamant about not being like his father...well, that apple didn't fall far the tree when he hit crisis mode.
I give him 6 months and he'll have another woman on the string. He's one of those MLCers that can't be alone. He always has to have someone around him.
It's going to be very interesting to see how things go for him. I most likely will not hear from him again once he moves, but that's okay...he's an internet junkie so he's all over the place blabbing his business. LOL!
I really do have a light heart this evening and maybe, just maybe Lady Karma will finally show him the way back to earth one day. He deserves to be happy w/life and w/himself.

Wow, Karma does work after all. I remember that story about the Easter egg, job. I’m wondering how it will work with another woman when he no home. Please keep us updated.
