I love that attitude and I've adopted it. I'm taking the deal and she can sue me.
and Gypsy, my dear, I'm pumped about moving forward. I like the fact I have a cheerleader, too. Do you have the outfit that goes w/that pep?
Today my realtor called and said there is an offer that would allow us to break completely even on the house. The only thing we'd have left between us is a $6000 joint credit card debt, the divison of the pensions, and the settlement of the wedding ring she chose to buy and now can't return b/c the jeweler is going out of business.
We're going to counter for a few thousand extra, not too much, but enough to give me a little bit of cash to help me move and put down 1st, last, and deposit on a new place.
So, we're playing around w/that. I sent her a text today about the offer and she snapped back a reply of "give me (the realtor's) number." Nothing like a kind, civil working relationship when it comes to a major asset. So, I gave her the number and guess what? She never called him. Anyone surprised? So, I gave the agent the number and he called but she didn't answer - he left her a message.
I'm sure she'll avoid the conversation so this can drag out. However, I'm now in a position where I'll take the offer or if she doesn't want to sell at that price, then she'll have to buy me out and take the house for herself. I'm not staying past January, folks. One year alone in our former marital residence has been enough. It is time for a change and a new start for me, the dog and the cat.
So, that was about all. Since I didn't go to the gym Friday or Saturday and I wasn't the best w/ my diet either day, I hit it really hard for an hour of cardio today and feel good. Now it is time to clean up and start to prepare my finals for the upcoming week at school.
