    RICHARD - it seems to me you have your own house next to your mom's, right? Will you be ok in that regard?

    You can choose your friends, but your relatives are wished on you. Hopefully this sale will take the nasty family members out of your life, and you will enjoy some freedom there.

    HUGS.

    It's a guest house on the property.

    The funny thing about it? On the zoning plan, it's listed as a 2+1. The GH is attached to a one car garage/ workshop. So, technically it does not exist.

    I am hoping that will cause bidding war and jack the price up.

    I can only hope.

    I plan on using my money to find a place in the hills for a year and relax.

    I want to write get away from family and everything. I want to sleep for a week, eat when I want and relax with a huge white cat.

    I want to take all my children but it's not possible, unless I win the lotto.



    ---------------

    I am not looking at the settlement as a reward. I find it sad and plan to use it wisely.

    I have asked the two sibs on my side to try and help out with the moving and throwing away all the shiat in the house but they just really do not have time for me.

    The one sib going to Disneyland?

    I have to laugh because he attends many events-next month he plans on going to a hockey game in Las Vegas, yet he's filed bankruptcy.

    He also parked a car in the driveway for one month because it was not running and he was given a ticket on it.

    I never said one word about the week that turned into a month, yet when I asked him to let me park my truck in his driveway for one week so I could get a dumpster in to clean out the back yard?

    No, impossible.



    I was talking to a friend and stated the fact that I wanted to to write a letter to everyone about how I felt.

    --------


    Before Ma died we were trying to get a lawyer in to get her to do a will,
    It was going to cost us about 2k and I called my sis to tell her about it.

    Had we all pitched in it would have been doable.......After I called her and told her the cost and asked what we should do, she stopped and took a few seconds then asked me what I wanted from her.

    She thought I was going to say money, but I said, "How's about a little support?"

    She flipped out and ended the convo a few seconds later.

    LOL, I really want to be blunt and calculating about this.

    But, it's better they deal with a conscience than my big mouth-that way they can get the truth faster that way.

    Are houses selling there in CA? They aren't here. They have resorted to auctioning off some of them to get rid of them. Maybe they won't sell right away and you will have time to get your bearings.

    I know sort of what you are going through. When the house I was living in in 2005 got condemmed, I had to move and fast. I had no money and no where to go where I could take my cats. I wouldn't go without them. I was facing being homeless and was terrified. I was so lucky that my brother bought this house for me.

    Maybe God is sifting the unneeded people out of your life and is going to move you some place much much better. I have to believe there is going to be something good come from this. I know it doesn't seem like it now. Hang on Pal! We are all here for you.
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    Check this out......

    IT's a probate auction, so people will be looking for a break in the price.

    So if no one buys it the company will pick it up and it's their problem.

    The court has set a lower bid limit for each house, I calculated the 'settement' for a lower, mid and high end bid.

    So, I know what my options are as far as living on the money for a while.

    ----------

    MY parents made and lost money on the purchase of both houses,

    The rental is worth three times the value from it's original purchase price - at the height of the market? 12 times the PP.



    -------------

    I am sitting here with my best friends waiting to see what happens...

    Who needs family.


    I'm not going to cry a river anytime soon.

    Too bad you can't rent it out...

    I hope someone can humanely trap your little frens so they can go to a safe home and be adopted out.

    Prayers and hugs, mon.

    When I come back from Scotland, can I go stay with you, Sister?

    It's sad that family cannot be family, but such a relief and a godsend when your friends can step in to fill that void.

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    Just don't let them take your computer. We have to keep track of you. If nothing else we can get a really really really really long extension cord and you can power it up from my house.
