Breathe

So…the latest report on my situation. Don’t worry, I’m adhering to the no depressing posts and am in much better spirits these days.

My house went up for auction on Wednesday. There was the possibility of renting it, but Treehouse Group Realty (the fuckers), wanted $1500/month. Um, hello? That was my mortgage payment. If I could afford that amount, I wouldn’t have lost the damn house. Not to mention the fact that the amount is too high for the neighborhood. These idiots haven’t even seen the house yet. It was bid on sight unseen and the house was built in 1959. The buyer wants to flip the house. In this market? I’d love to know how much he paid for it because then I could tell how long it’ll take for him to do so. This tells me that he never intended to rent it to us…so why even bother bringing it up to us?

*shakes head, takes deep breath* Whatever.

I’m currently waiting to be served the papers that’ll tell me I have 5 days to get out of my house, which I suppose is no longer my house, and that’s fine. I have a place to go now and rented a storage unit today. We’ll be moving to Maricopa, which is about 35-45 minutes from my house. Not ideal for job-hunting in the Tempe/Mesa area, but whatever. At least it’s not a shelter.

Which reminds me, I have a ton of food to donate to shelters, as well as other items.
