Ni nlt, I agree, it is so good to have friends on here. I used to be like you and was so happy when I got some advice on how to handle the sitch. It helped me a lot to calm down.
Journaling: I worked in the garden a bit this afternoon and later on the sun came out and the day ended up being lovely and warmer again.
My sister decided to visit me for a few days as the weather forecast is very good for the whole week. It seems that summer wants to have a lovely and warm ending. We would like to go swimming again, but I am not sure if the water will be warm enough. But we will go at least sunbathing. So I am glad that I will have some company again. We might also do some sightseeing in the area.
You sound wonderful!!!! I was just checking in to see how you were doing and it looks like you have everything under control! Have fun with your sister.
Thank you for sending the rain!! LOL We finally got some from that tropical storm Faye. It misted most of the day but now it is raining. I hope it will do that all night & tomorrow too, we sure need it. But it does make for some depressing times. I've been a little sad tonight, mind started wondering. But as I've said before & I could be totally wrong but I haven't completely given up hope. I know that sounds crazy but that is how I feel right now.
Hi YR, Thank you for your encouragement. I must admit I am doing quite alright.
Hi nlt, I am happy that you finally got my rain I sent you - LOL. Yes, rainy days also depress me.
This afternoon I met a lady I got to know in a restaurant. We went to the beach but it was too cold for me to swim. We had a lovely afternoon.
I got an e-mail from H. I could not believe what I read! He thanked me for my help with the realtor. Then he said that he gives it over to me to deal with the realtor. I should earn my money! It makes him too unhappy to be at the property and he hopes I understand!!!!!!
I am speechless! I really don't mind helping him and I told him if he needs further help, I will be there for him. But this is just too much. It was him who wanted the property and bought it after he left. He wanted it as an investment and to live there with OW. Well, it is not my fault that nothing worked out. Now it looks as if he wants me to bail him out again. I will just not do it anymore.
I am really worried about H. He seems to get crazier as time goes by. I just hope it will not come true what a L told me. She said that I should be happy if H wants a D, as it seems he is off the wall. And if it gets worse H will end up needing care in his old age, and I would have to support him.
I thought of answering H's e-mail as follows:
Quote I am gladly helping you with the realtor and I understand that it makes you unhappy to be there. However, it will be up to you to decide what price you want to sell it for. In any case, the realtor told me he is doing his best to sell it. But he will have to contact YOU if he has an offer etc., as I cannot decide whether to accept it or not. Therefore, I would appreciate it if you continue to deal with it as it is up to you to decide. Unquote
I think it was right to the point, nothing more, nothing less. Or you could just tell him what the realtor said and not say anything about the unhappy part.

Hi SF and nlt, Thank you for your comments. SF, I might leave the "unhappy" part out.
I am doing quite alright at the moment.
Journaling: Today was another beautiful day and my sister and I went sunbathing. The water was still too cold for us to swim. There were not many people at the beach and it was really peaceful.
I will wait a few days with replying to H's e-mail.
Plant some tulips sometime. LOL!! Those are my very favorite flowers but we are unable to grow them out here. The hot sun would scorch them.
I am glad you are enjoying your company.

Hi SF, I like tulips as well. I would plant tulips if you did not have to take out the bulbs every autumn and put them back in spring!
I hope you did not get any of the bad hurricane.
Hi nlt, The weather was lovely almost all the time apart from some thick fog on one morning, and I had a great time with my sister. She went back home this afternoon. Afterwards I went to two events. Unfortunately, it was too late to go anywhere after that, so I went home.
I am still thinking about whether I should deal with the realtor or not. I have not replied to H yet.
