Hi Min! How are you doing these days?

9:23 pm

Minveryork

Hello Nef! I am hanging in there, depends on the day. It's so great to see you here! How are you doing these days?

9:26 pm

Nef

Iâ€™m hanging in there too right now. Dear Hubs is getting IV steroids right now; depending on his mood; Iâ€™m either stressed (when it wipes him out) or happy (when he actually has energy & tries to do stuff around the house to help.

9:28 pm

Minveryork

I hope you are happy more than you are stressed. Sounds rough. Sending {{{HUGS}}} to you and your husband, Nef.

9:28 pm

Nef

And is you

9:28 pm

Nef

â€œOrdealâ€ over yet?

9:29 pm

Nef

(Sorry, hit the wrong button there)

9:34 pm

Minveryork

I am still having to deal with my crazy ex-husband. My house is still on market and my crazy ex is being quite difficult about it.We had a buyer and lost them in May because ex refused to allow contracts to be sent out.I have another buyer and the ex is refusing to fix things in house.I am afraid that we R going to lose 2nd buyer

9:35 pm

Nef

Oh, no. ðŸ˜Ÿ Can your lawyer help set him straight at all?

9:45 pm

Minveryork

The good news is I am officially divorced. Took Judge 5 months to sign the papers.The bad news is I used up the rest of my retainer.If I want to continue to have a lawyer, I have to pay another $2,500 retainer.I do not know what to do and if it would be worth it.PLUS I am still trying to pay off her first retainer and then some.

9:48 pm

Nef

(((Min))) Iâ€™m sorry you have to go through all of this.

9:50 pm

Nef

And yes; it is good news youâ€™re finally divorced; but Iâ€™m sure you want to get that house sold & just be done with all of it now too.

9:52 pm

Bugsaw

Wow. I am sorry to hear of this too Minveryork. It is hard to know how to procede when someone just wants to block everything sensible.

9:52 pm

Bugsaw

But I am happy you got the divorce!

9:55 pm

Nef

Hi Bugs; how are you doing these days?

9:55 pm

Minveryork

Hello Bugsaw! How are you doing today?Welcome to grid.

9:55 pm

Bugsaw

I am doing a lot better than you and Nef, that's for sure.

9:57 pm

Bugsaw

I finally got to the point in retirement where I don't feel like I have to justify my existance. I am enjoying life doing all kinds of things that I want to do but never had time before.

9:57 pm

Nef

Hey, Bugs; as both Min & I said, weâ€™re still hanging in there! ðŸ™‚

9:59 pm

Minveryork

Glad to hear you are doing so well Bugsaw. Retirement is is not even in the horizon for me.I did go to a retirement dinner tonight though. Was nice to get out and have fun.

10:00 pm

Bugsaw

I have no doubt that you both will prevail as well, Nef. As Dame Julian said in the 1500s - All will be well. All manner of things will be well.

10:00 pm

Nef

Iâ€™m trying to move to some sort of senior housing in our area; Iâ€™d love to sell our house but the son & grandson both have to move out first.

10:01 pm

Bugsaw

That is a tricky one Nef. You have needed help with your hubby for a long time so senior housing will answer a lot of your needs but you hate to put your children out. You have offered the little guy the best start by giving him a stable home but you can't be expected to do it forever.

10:02 pm

Bugsaw

I hope they can find an affordable place near to where you will end up so you can still have lots of visits.

10:02 pm

Nef

True. But can I brag a bit about my grandson now?

10:03 pm

Minveryork

Why can't your son buy your house from you Nef?

10:04 pm

Bugsaw

Please brag! I love to hear about successes

10:04 pm

Nef

Heâ€™s now 10; and he got straight Aâ€™s in school this year; plus this past Saturday he earned his seconf degree black belt in TaeKwonDo!

10:05 pm

Minveryork

I have no problems bragging about my dog,so please brag about your grandson. I'd love to hear something positive!

10:06 pm

Minveryork

Nef, can you fly your son out to NY so he can kick my ex's butt! He really needs some sense knocked into him now.

10:07 pm

Nef

Min, my son is 40 years old & is still ADHD. Heâ€™s making good money but is bad at saving and managing his finances.

10:07 pm

Bugsaw

Well done indeed! Please tell him I am very proud of all his efforts. My kids never got past yellow belt in TaeKwonDo because they didn't have the discipline to practice. Straight A's is a huge accomplishment too.

10:08 pm

Minveryork

Oh right. It is your grandson who has the black belt. Well he can come out to NY and kick my ex-husband's ass then

10:09 pm

Minveryork

I would even pay for the plane ticket 2 New York Nef!LOL

10:10 pm

Bugsaw

ADHD creates so many problems around organization. One of my boys just got married to a woman who has it but she actualy paid a life coach to help her find ways to manage it and make her life better. She wanted to manage her money and use her time at work better. I was so proud of her for thinking of doing this and for following through. My stable son came into her life not long after she made these changes and they are very happy together.

10:13 pm

Nef

But this evening he just told me heâ€™s got 1 school loan left to pay on, and that loan totals exactly $.04 (4 cents)! Our house is a 1950â€™s 3 bedroom rambler with a large addition & weâ€™re 2 blocks from an elementary school. The house across the street sold for the high $300K. My son doesnâ€™t have enough money saved for a downpayment like that.

10:15 pm

Bugsaw

You mean your son has paid off all his debts now? That is terrific news! It means he can manage his money now and I am sure he can get and keep an apartment for his son and himself. He doesn't need to buy something, just stay in one place so life stays the same for both of them. If you guys were within walking distance it would be perfect. Here is hoping for lots of good changes in Nef's family. Sending hugs to you all

10:16 pm

Nef

LOL, Min! That would be funny to see, Min, but unfortunately my grandson is too nice to hurt even the bully that picked on him in school (& his TaeKwonDo master introduced him to the audience that way too!)

10:21 pm

Nef

Thanks, Bugs. No, not *all* of his debts; just the school loans. But can you imagine that if you were paying off school loans& you saw that you would end up owing just a last payment of less that a dollar; wouldnâ€™t you pay that in the second to the last payment so you wouldnâ€™t have some sort of an interest payment tacked on it?

10:21 pm

Minveryork

Hate to change the subject, but I need help w/my last 6.

10:23 pm

Nef

Iâ€™m stuck too, Min (at 20 left); so letâ€™s see if we can help each other. What do you need?

10:23 pm

Minveryork

E's Effaced! 4 left

10:23 pm

Bugsaw

You and I would Nef but I bet he just lost track of how close he was to the end of that one. It happens. My eldest ADFD son is working on paying off the debt he accumulated through his lifetime but he didn't start until he was in his 40's too.

10:25 pm

Minveryork

Oops! NOW my E's are Effaced! 3 left

10:25 pm

Bugsaw

what do you guys need in case I have them

10:26 pm

Nef

GO, Min!

10:27 pm

Minveryork

I need clues for the last 2 my words(my6/30 and my5/18)

10:28 pm

Bugsaw

one is obvious once you find it and the other one ends in 2 vowels.

10:28 pm

Nef

Min, they are related to the other my words; the my 5 is a pl

10:29 pm

Nef

And the my6 has 2 vowels on the end

10:29 pm

Minveryork

Ok, got the plural. Do not deserve a clue for the my6/30.

Minveryork

M's Manufactured! 1 left

10:32 pm

Minveryork

I am finished! I have fireworks! qu5/18 was my last word.

10:33 pm

Nef

I finally got my last re!

10:33 pm

Minveryork

Thanks Bugsaw & Nef for your help. How can I return the favor? I will be here for 15 more minutes if U need clues.

10:33 pm

Nef

YAY, Min!!! WTG!!!

10:33 pm

Minveryork

REjoyce Nef!

10:35 pm

Nef

LOL! It was the re 6/21 I couldnâ€™t find (youâ€™d think that would have been easier forme to see up here in the North Country!

10:37 pm

Nef

I need 1 T; I think itâ€™s a 4 letter word

10:43 pm

Nef

I need 2 hâ€™s (from thr 4th column); 2 Sâ€™s, and 2 Eâ€™s from the bottom row

10:45 pm

Minveryork

th 4/12:misspelled name of Cosby son on The Cosby show

10:46 pm

Minveryork

An he 7/52 word has adds an adverb ending to the he 4/8

10:46 pm

Nef

Nope; I have that one

10:46 pm

Minveryork

That hy 5/18 word is hy plus the opposite of females Nef.

10:47 pm

Minveryork

Do U have the to5/16 word yet Nef?Are U sure U need ti4

10:48 pm

Nef

I had the he7 already but thanks for the he 5

10:53 pm

Nef

(A big part of my problem is Iâ€™m working on my iPad & canâ€™t bulk add to lickety. So I donâ€™t ever know what Iâ€™m issing at this point

10:56 pm

Nef

And I canâ€™t type this late at night either â€” from the looks of it!

11:07 pm

Nef

I finally got my last T word!

11:08 pm

Bugsaw

oh I apologize ladies. I wandered off to read my email quickly and got sidetracked by Book Club requests. . . Shame on me. I had better quit too but Well done Nef1

11:08 pm

Minveryork

Terrific Nef!

11:09 pm

Nef

No problem, Bugs! I even had to take a break when the cat DEMANDED her bedtime snack!

11:10 pm

Nef

Thank you Min! Will you be around more this summer now?

11:12 pm

Minveryork

I just got a summer job teaching ESL to foreign students.

11:12 pm

Minveryork

I really didn't want to have to be a camp counselor again.

11:14 pm

Nef

I would think the last job any teacher would want would be camp counselor?!

11:15 pm

Minveryork

I was so MISERABLE last summer! All the other counselors were young, fit and in shape. I was old and out of shape.

11:15 pm

Minveryork

I was running around with a bunch of little kids for 8 hrs.

11:15 pm

Minveryork

I was huffing and puffing running around in 90 + humidity

11:17 pm

Nef

That is a job for younger peopleâ€” unless youâ€™re the camp doctor (& you wouldnâ€™t have to run anywhere)

11:19 pm

Nef

Where was the camp that the humidity was so high?

11:21 pm

Minveryork

I would've gone back to the camp if I had to.Struggling to make ends meet, so beggars can't be choosers.I'm hoping this summer job will be something I can do every year.

11:23 pm

Nef

And this is a job you definitely know what youâ€™re doing, too..

11:24 pm

Nef

You really need to get this house sold, donâ€™t you?

11:26 pm

Nef

And your ex knows exactly how to cause you to be miserable. ðŸ˜ž

11:27 pm

Minveryork

Yes, I do! Right now I am paying rent, half mortgage AND alimony to my ex-husband. I'm also paying for everything that needs to be fixed in house. So yes, it needs to go!!

11:29 pm

Nef

Thatâ€™s not right!

11:31 pm

Minveryork

The price I have to pay to get my happiness and freedom

11:31 pm

Nef

He will never leave you alone or let you sell if heâ€™s getting that much money from you!

My ex-husband used my alimony $ to pay mortgage while he lived there. He moved out and got an apartment. Now we both have to pay half of the mortgage plus our rent.

Oh, okay. Now I understand. But it really sucks you have to pay him alimony.

Yes, it totally sucks big time! I have to remember though there are others who are going through worse hardships.
