Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

They're really nice. Most of them are older. I mean like there's only two or three younger than me and the rest are all in their late 50's to 70's. But I really feel like I connect with them. Maybe I'm an old soul?

That's cool NJN!
Me too IKWTDS!
It's raining. It's a nice slow rain. The kind that's good for sleeping. Just pulled into work.
There was a commercial for a fertility clinic on the radio. They offer financial aid. Sooo, let's get a bunch of people pregnant so we can support them! If you can't afford the treatments chances are you can't afford a kid.

FNW · Guru

Is this a church group?

flan327 · Itty bitty's Grammy

How big of a group is it, NJN? Do you only go Tuesdays nights, but not attend services?

I'm glad you have found another place for support...but yeah, "weird" fits.

Morning.

Waiting on the rain.

The sinus thing that has plagued me for two weeks in now in my eye and lungs. Lovely.

This, too, shall pass.

Have a great day ya'll.

Wow! It's Wednesday, already?

I'm losing track of time.

Hanging on to my sanity, by a thread.

(Venting in the Break Room is helping. I'm not going to crack up. I refuse, to lose it.)

I hope everyone has a good day.

I think the rain is over, for a few days.

I'm hoping to see some sunshine today. smile

Sunny and 70's today. 60's so far. I'm wearing white jeans. **gasp**

How could you???? wink

Oh, wait. I'm thinking of shoes, not jeans. biggrin

Dang, it's only 49 here. We should hit the mid 70's this afternoon.

FNW · Guru

I don't usually wear white shoes. Ever. I scuff them up too bad.

I don't usually wear white pants before Memorial Day, but find that once June starts, it's too hot to wear white jeans or even my doubleweave white pants. So this year I figured I'd start earlier to get some use out of them.

Thanks for letting me vent, Good Geeks. I think years of pent of anger, is seeping out of me.

(That's probably a good thing. Keeping it to myself, isn't healthy.)

The sun is shining! Finally! smile Sorry about the rain,LL. I hope it doesn't sick around for days, like it did here.

I still haven't watched Castle. I will try to get to it tonight.

I know what you mean about the jeans, FNW. From May through September, mine never come out of the closet. (Unless I'm up North visiting. Then, I have to remember to pack them!) wink

Sunny and a high of 75 today.

And I am at work. I will try to get my last assignment done today so all I have to worry about for the rest of the week are three final exams.

I moved up my doctor appt. getting ready to leave work now. The poison ivy is spreading, but not too much. Tomorrow has turned into a super busy day at work. I offered to move my appt but everyone said no don't worry about. But I felt like I should. So the poison ivy is a good excuse to get it done today.

I would offer hugs to those that need them, but in my current state, I'll give you a cheery wave instead 😀

I just got a text from Czech.

They are taking her Dad home today. Hospice will take over his care.

Sending more hugs and prayers for Czech and her family.

I hope they have some peaceful days with him.

I just checked my credit score and it's way better than I thought! I've been frantically trying to rebuild it ever since I was unemployed for a couple months last year and fell behind.

Now if only I could get my name off of my ex husband's damn house. He's not cooperating.

I'm sorry to hear that, Vette.

Why wasn't that taken care of by your lawyer, when you got divorced?

Shouldn't that have been part of the deal? confuse

Okay, it's sunny, and almost 60 degrees.

I missed my walk yesterday.

No excuses, today. Off I go!

Be back later, Good Geeks! smile

Mellow Momma · Sniff...sniff, sniff. Yay! A Bum!

Continuing to think good thoughts for Czech and her family and of course FWM and her sister. Some of our Geeks need our love and support so much right now, it is reminding me to be grateful for what I have.

Off to work today - the doggy was not impressed. He liked our lazy day yesterday cuddling and walking at the nature center. He gave me a dirty look when I left the house today.

I am working today and then after work I am taking DD's boyfriend to order his tux for prom. He didn't want to wear one at all, but his mother stepped in and told him he HAD to. He is a frugal boy. He comes from a wealthy family, but you would never know it. He has his head on straight and is very cautious about money.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful day.

Just popping in to say hi! Its been crazy at work lately, but I love my new job. My boss is very supportive of life outside of work and loves kids. Such a change of pace. Makes me want to work harder when I am here.

And in amazing news I got Gordito to eat Broccoli and he ate an entire In&Out cheeseburger on his own. He's going to be so huge. Can't believe he's already almost 15 months.

Hope all my Geeks are doing well.

Vette, are you trying to get your name off the loan or off the title to the house? I can understand the loan but not the title?

I wore my white jeans at least twice already. No one here knows that it is not proper to wear white jeans before memorial day or they don't care. Old rules anyway.

Vette · Owl drink to that!

I didn't know about what to do with the house during the divorce, no one advised us about anything. Now I know I should have taken care of it back then, it's proving to be very difficult after the fact.

HM, I don't know the difference. Honestly I don't know anything about this stuff :(

Mellow Momma · Sniff...sniff, sniff. Yay! A Bum!

The loan is who owes the money to the bank. The title is who owns the house itself.

I would think if you both signed the mortgage, then if he suddenly stops paying it, the foreclosure would go against your credit as well. If your name is on the title, when he sells the house he owes you half the money.

That is very general. I am sure LL has WAY more knowledge to share on this.

Yes, it's a church group. It's a group specifically for women that meets the last Tuesday every month. The group varies in size. Sometimes we may only have five people there and sometimes up to twenty. It's not extraordinarily large. I don't go to church on Sundays. I've been thinking about it lately.

It really wasn't as weird as it sounds. We all got up to pray at the end of the meeting and we usually hold hands and pray in a circle. But last night they prayed specifically for people. I asked them to pray for me for a couple different things so they all stood around me and each person put their hand on me and they prayed. It wasn't weird at all. Then we prayed for some other people in the group the same way. I noticed during the praying that the one lady that was leading the prayers her hand were really wet looking. Kind of like she had just applied lotion. I honestly didn't think anything of it. It wasn't until we stopped praying that I noticed she had a very small vial of oil in a little tin with a pair of praying hands on it. Then it clicked to me what it all was. Like I said, it wasn't all showy or anything. She would just put her hands on your forehead or face and pray. It wasn't like anyone was fainting or anything. It was pretty low key. I wouldn't have even known had I not seen the little thing of oil.

I hope both our geek families get better. I will pray for them.

I have to take DS later to buy him a new bike.

Mellow Momma · Sniff...sniff, sniff. Yay! A Bum!

Honestly, whomever handled your divorce for you should have brought this up, you shouldn't have had to ask about it. If your name isn't on either, then it wouldn't matter.

Seriously. I thought that was just PART of the divorce. Listing the assets. I didn't know there was any other way...

Divine Geek · Guru

Dr went well. She called in a prescription for me. I'm to call if it's not better in a few days or if it comes back.

Here is my weird story of the day. I asked her about a mark I have on my leg. I know exactly what happened: the sock I was wearing rolled down, then I slept in just the right way that the roll left a bruise on my leg. Thing is, that was over a month ago and I still have the mark. She said nothing to worry about, it's just in how the bruise heals, sometimes you're left with the mark. So there is a good chance I'll have the mark on my leg for the rest of my life - from my sock! I am amused

This is pretty correct. However, check your divorce settlement or order to determine what it says regarding who gets the house. NORMALLY, if you were both on the title and both on the loan, there should be a provision as to who gets the house and that they need to refi within so much time to get the other person's name off the loan and then that person will quit-claim the property to the other. Or, that the property will be sold, and then it says how it will be divied up.

If it says nothing, you ex is crazy, Vette - because if you are on the title, he could end up paying on the house for years and years, and then have to split the money with you when he sells.

Did you sign a deed?
