This was one of the most stressfull days ever though. I didn't get the papers until 3:30....then had to go by the bank, get a cashier's check, get the papers notarized and get to FedEx by 4:30....which is virtually impossible. The realtor told me that if it didn't get done today then the deal would fall through. I was pissed.
XH was surprisingly cooperative today. Called me about 5 times checking on things and then left work early to meet me at the bank. He was really nice, which is good because I don't think I could have handled him being a jerk on top of everything else. He seemed really sad for some reason. Maybe guilt because he didn't do anything or pay any money.
I ended up having to pay 11K!!! Which was WAY more than I thought, but the title company said I would get about 3K back. I am officially as broke as I was a college student. Not one red cent from xh. Oh well....live and learn I guess. Better to let it go than let it get to me.
I do feel like a weight has been lifted. All the utilities are canceled so I don't have to pay those bills with my next check like I normally would.
I am so glad this is finally over.
I think it is finally hitting me that this house stuff is over. Who wants a drink??? I have reason to celebrate!
I am SO happy for you about the house! I bet that feels like a huge weight is lifted off your shoulders. Congrats big time!

Sara I need to post to you, I have been keeping up...just haven't had time to write.
Yes it is a lot of stress off of me. I was all set on getting an apartment....but now that I'm broke I may stay with my mom for a little while longer. Neither one of us seems to ever be home anymore so it really hasn't been that big of a deal lately. The only thing is that all my things are crammed in a room in her house and I can't get to anything. So, maybe I'll just stay there a couple more months.
I don't think I mentioned my dad's wedding. So strange. I think in my mind I thought this was going to be a very small wedding with family only. I was VERY wrong. There were over 100 people, they had bridesmaids, groomsmen, the whole nine yards. I felt so uncomfortable. Dad only told me about this about 3 weeks ago and there was clearly months of planning for this thing. I was probably the last to know, which irritates me but there is nothing I can do about it.
I have another wedding to go to this weekend!!! I think that makes the fifth since the bomb...crazy. At least I'm not in it. Then I will be done with weddings until November...then hopefuly I will be done for a LONG time.
congrats on the sale of the house. when mine sold it was bitter sweet. the stress was gone but I hated selling it. I went to some weddings last year pre the D. I just put on a happy face and said this was the bride and groom's day and not one for me to be sad.

Michelle...beer coming right up, I need one too....but maybe I'll wait until later since it is before 9 am!
Yoyo! Haven't seen you in a while, I posted to you some in piecing. I'll have to find your thread. How about a margarita??
Shoe, I have actually been about 1000 miles away from the house for about 11 months now.....so selling it was only sweet, no bitterness. The bitterness came in every month when I had to pay the mortgage alone while my xh got to do whatever he wanted while not contributing.
I always just try to stay "detached" at the weddings...although kind of hard when you are in them. I have been in 3 out of 6 just in the past year...and matron of honor in two! That's crazy, but I made it. This one Friday should actually be fun....and I have a "date" for it .
