Everwhere is walking distance if you have the time

Yes. Mishka. It's "I Do Again." I really like that book. It gave me insight into what a WAS is thinking.

Prof-40 sent me a message asking if I'd picked up the second book in a series she suggested. I responded yes.

Now that basketball season has started, I have a ton going on and when busy I don't worry so much because there are few free nights anyway.

Christmas is taken care of. Saving for summer is going well. I just filled out my insurance stuff for next year. It'll be $8 less per check. That may not seem like much, but that's $200 for the year. It all adds up.

Yes Barb, I am through the divorce issues and ready to date.

Divorce drama locally. So XW calls a couple of times. The QDRO took the money from her 401(k) and not her pension. This is why she can't get an emergency loan to save the house.

She called the lady at my attorney's office. XW says they wouldn't give her what she needed and "weren't nice" to her "at all."

I asked if she needed me to call to give permission. She said yes.

So I called and the lady there said she expected my call after XW got done screaming at her.

Two different versions. I tend to believe the lady at my attorney's office.

Anyway, I just need to pick up a legal description of my/our property for the Quit Claim Deed, which they'll do for $75, and they'll fix the QDRO mistake for free.

I apologized to the lady at the office for having to go through that. I still owe these guys $1,350 and I'm paying it at the rate of $25 per check. I really don't want them mad at me.

D9 had a bad day at school and I may have contributed. She was late getting going this morning and there was a bit of a struggle. When we finally got going we discovered we'd left the dome light on the car and it was dead.

So I had to call a tow truck guy to start it and we got D9 to school 45 minutes late. Still, she doesn't do well with disruptions.

Interesting day.
