Signed my papers yesterday buyer is supposed to sign at 4pm today!
Of course it is fighting me to the end. Just had to call the mortgage company for payoff as they were giving the closing agent the run around.
Coffee and ice cream for all when the deal is done!

Oh I know! You think it is all settled only to see where some new holdup emerges. Anxiety and stress seem to keep rising and one day you realize that it is done and over with.

Yep. Bring it on.😁
My wife asked me, why aren't you happy?
I said the check ain't cleared the bank so it ain't over yet.

I ain't stressed anymore about it though. Feel kinda silly now for acting the way I did at times but I did learn a lot about myself and others so it was worth it I guess.

I can very much relate to the above re stress and anxiety... lots of learning done in that department, much more to learn too.

Hope you're getting those papers signed fk and its all done and dusted - around about now, as I type this?

My work has been interesting this week. You've probably all been through similar many many months ago, but for me it's been a bit of a first. Very thankful I've got those nearly 2 years of sobriety under my belt - don't think this would have worked out too well if I hadn't.

So.... I'm working for one of the big players in the music industry. The office environment is unlike any other I've seen - the company's onsite restaurant has a bar for goodness sake! (Although it hasn't been open during my time, so far at least). The first few weeks have been pretty quiet as people get used to returning to work. But this week the drinks have come out as record contracts are signed, or some other reason to celebrate has come up.

It has been "odd" to be around - it hasn't phased me at all. Something akin to being at a food buffet and passing on the foods you really don't care for. And of course I can't help but think how different it would all have been a couple of years ago. I'd either be fretting because I was "missing out", or if I could find a way to take part in the celebrations, I would.

Abraxus, I understand exactly what you are saying. I'm thinking that if you have bothered to stick around all this time, that you would have done fine in that situation long before now.

Thanks Dee!

Abraxas glad the job is working out!
I too know what you are talking about as far as the mental shift we have gone through.
I've been to more than a few occasions where others were drinking and it is kind of surreal I am not.
Even more so that I don't even want to.
FREEDOM!


Well as far as the house sale goes we all knew there would be no quiet ending.
I am fine, everything is signed. I no longer own the home.
My agents, on the other hand, not so much.
Seems they worded the listing wrong as far as the commissions go and it said the buyers agent was to recieve the full amount instead of splitting it 50/50 which everyone knows is standard.
Well buyers agent said tough sht and took it all!
Legal but Karma will not be kind to them for that dirty move.

Still a few days before all funds are disbursed to me so still a little guarded.

Me too Fish, we had both banana splits and vanilla butterscotch brickle icecream as kids

Suze if you can’t buy them, you can get a bag of butterscotch lollies, put them in a tea towel, and bash them with a wooden rolling pin (that’s what my Mum would do) and mix them through half melted vanilla icecream. Or you can buy it ready made. I think it’s called hokey pokey these days.

oh yum, I’m drooling thinking about it

Oh gosh....I looked it up here and got butterscotch chocolate buttons. I think I can probably skip all of it...if anyone remembers I mentioned that I was fighting a battle to get weight off me....(menopause was so much fun, I am sure you guys with wives would agree )

I am winning the battle now, slowly but surely....so onward without butterscotch.

Lol, I heard you Suze And I’m currently enjoying salted caramel yogurt, with no added sugar!
Definitely worth a try as a yummy but healthier alternative to icecream
