I have been trying to renew my mortgage with a different lender than the one I have. I wasn't aware that my property taxes were behind until I went to the town office to get a tax statement...bomb number 1.
Then I get a registered letter from the post office. It's from my insurance company saying that the last payment didn't go through and my insurance will be cancelled unless I come up with x amount of dollars due yesterday...bomb number 2.
Question: what do you need to renew your mortgage? That's right, your taxes paid up and house insurance...sheesh!
So needless to say I've been running around trying to get all this stuff straightened around. The house insurance company accepted the payment. Went into the town office and worked out some payment arrangements.
But...due to my wife's mentality that she can fix this stuff before I find out...always blows up...and I find out right around the time that it's almost too late to fix...love her to death but where she gets this notion from is beyond me... but I like to bury my head in the sand too I guess. Missed payments screw your credit rating...so interest rate gets higher...
But all is good now. Just spoke with my current lender. Paperwork is all good. I don't have to live in my car for the summer. Yay!
So again I apologize for my gruffness, my attitude, my manners; I haven't been myself lately. I'm sorry guys.
I'm gonna celebrate with a stiff Rye and Coke when I get home from work.
Love you guys, thanks for letting me vent!
Brother we all get that way! You're not alone. Been a tough year for me too, just gotta shake your head and look for the light. One thing I have learned, is that since I joined this Squad, I have this amazing group that is right there to support me.
When I got sick earlier this year and went back through reading all the posts, gotta be honest, I got ready teary eyed! Hulk texting back and forth with my Daughter, all the well wishes from everyone. One really stuck out, this kinda crazy Canadian fella was trying to change his name to Skyripper's Comet!
Vent away my friend, that's what we're all here for! And if you need to blow off steam, Shoot me a PM, I'll give you my number so you can call!
And a final note, been reading the Blacklist, wouldn't think you were being an ass in any way! Think that shoe belongs on someone else's foot!! If you noticed, I added a thank you to all your posts!
Hang in there Brother!! All good here!
