      I need to whine. Today has been a crappy day. First, the ex’s wife tells me (last Sunday) I need to pay a balance for my son’s dental procedure. No biggie. It wasn’t that much. So I request the statement for my records and she tells me she will send it out Monday. Monday comes and no email. I wait a few days And then on Wednesday I call the office and have them send it so I can get it paid. I send her an email saying I got the invoice from the dentist office and everything looks fine and I will send payment the next day. Then this morning I got a nasty email about how I need to stop interfering and trust that she will get me the info and if I would rather cover Everett on my insurance then feel free….It really made me feel like nothing I do is right. All I wanted to do was pay my portion in a timely manner. And then, on top of that, I was super excited to go visit my sister for some company and on my way there my car completely loses power. Thankfully I was able to pull off to the side of the freeway with no accident. Hours and a tow later I find out that my timing belt broke and damaged the valves in my engine. So now I have to get a new car too. This year has not been a good year. I really hope 2016 can be better for me. I’m not sure how much more I can take. 🙁 Deep breath…

      Hang in there, LuvsDragons. Things sometimes have to get worse before they can get better. Maybe some good things will be coming your way in 2016. Try to find the silver lining in bad situations, even if it’s minuscule. It sucks you have to get a new car but at the same time, a NEW or maybe NEW-USED car!

          Windstone has been the only bright point of this holiday season for me.

          I was planning to finalize my divorce on November 3rd, but found out there’s a parenting class we both have to take. I guess that’s what I get for thinking we could do an uncontested divorce without paying thousands of dollars for legal services.

          So we sign up for the class, and the next available class we can get into is January 5th! I really wanted to start this year fresh, back to my maiden name – I know it’s just a few days past the new year, but it still bothers me quite a bit.

          We’ve been officially separated since I moved out in February – but our marriage was really over last September. I had to live with him for 5 months until I could get my own apartment, which made last Christmas super crappy and uncomfortable – I thought this year would be better.

          But he has me constantly worried about the cars that are still in my name, that he is behind on payments. Other than paying the payments myself (which I can’t afford) my credit is at his mercy. Then when it was time for my kids to spend the weekend at his house, and his phone is disconnected because he didn’t pay the bill. So I have to let my kids go over there with no way to contact me if something is wrong – luckily they’re next door to their grandparents, or I might not have let them go. Not to mention trying to plan Christmas Eve and Day without being able to contact him…

          It could be worse…I could still be with him, right? I’m just super stressed by this holiday season, and I am looking forward to it being over.

            I shouldn’t whine. ….

            This isn’t a whine, but I work at a gas station and we had a 4.4 earthquake……scary, for me at least and I’m the only one here!!!

            This year is just going swell….not. I need to renew my lease this next month. I called and got a quote back in October that it would be going up to $900/month. Not great but OK. I really cannot find anything else around that price here and with the custody arrangement I cannot move if I want to see my son. So I was planning on resigning at that amount. Well I got a letter today saying that it will go up to $935/monnth! Fifty bucks was one thing but $85?! I really cannot afford that and now I do not have time to find something else….AND I really dont’ want to move again. I have moved 4 times in 5 years. I am getting sick of it. I am going to call them tomorrow and see if they will work with me but I really dont’ know what i’m going to do. I really thing that the stress of this year has knocked off about 30 years of my life. 🙁

              I live on a lake that has water let out of it each year during the winter. Normal/summer full pool is 490 feet. Winter full pool is 480 feet. We have had do much rain the past week that we are almost (within 1.5 feet) at summer full pool. Needless to say, I am tired of rain.

                Wow, I FEEL you. It’s been raining so much…too much! It is December and I should not be seeing slugs and snails on my patio. It should be cold and dry dang it! Though I will say that my power bills are making me happy right now. 😉

                        So first off I would like to say what I appreciate about this forum because there are so many great people on here who try and help others acquire favourite and grail pieces and have a way of brightening people’s day with their generosity and caring attitudes. For my whine though unfortunately I have not been so fortunate and am upset. It’s one thing for someone to tell you they happened to get two of your favourite grab bags and they are not for trade which is fine. It’s another thing for them to tell you they will trade them if you get them their favourite grab bags, then they send you pictures, get your hopes up, make you spend a week searching for something to trade them and you find a piece they want, set up a 3 way trade and just when everything is about to go through, they stab you in the back and raise the offer to buy the piece they wanted themselves instead of trading. Then they tell you they got another piece in at the same time that was their favourite and they don’t have to trade you your favourite pieces anymore because they got what they wanted.

                        Since when has doing a fair trade turned into someone wasting a week of your time and then rubbing it in your face they are going to keep your two favourite pieces after they got their favourite pieces? I actually thought this person was nice enough to help me get my favourite pieces if they got theirs, but sorry I was mistaken that they actually just wanted to keep all the pieces for themselves and it doesn’t matter how I feel right? Wow I am sorry but I am so tired of dealing with people who only care what they get and don’t need to help anyone else! For the rest of you on here who do help people get pieces they want I appreciate you even more because obviously that is a rare trait. On that note my new grab bag poads are now for sale since I know now I won’t be able to trade for my favourites anymore.

                        Ok. I haven’t been here for a while. My life has been one disaster after another. I lost both Schmendrick and Zeus (my cats). One last April, and one this past August. And I have had severe medical issues, and now I am pending disability benefits (which could take years to get, per my lawyer). In the meantime, my service dog, Rowdy, has to stop his training because I don’t have the money (ran out of savings) and my ex is taking child support back (rightfully so, since he has the kids more than I do of late since my hospitalization last June), and so I’m in dire straights! I even have to sell my one and only prized possession (my Windstone), not to mention this computer I am sitting at, and all of my big furniture, just to see if I can pay my rent! I am on a waiting list for Section 8 housing, but it’s miles long and years out. I am hoping I get approved for food stamps, because I’m tapping out all of my familial resources. I have no where to go, and I’m in an utter panic! My church helped me with rent and electricity this past month, but I’m super freaked out about February, since there is no way I can come up with it! My bio-family and I are estranged (for good reason) and I have tapped out my entire “extended” family (my ex’s family, best friends who are like family, etc) and I feel like there’s no solution! Ack!

                        Ok. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest. I’m super depressed lately, and don’t know how to handle any of it. There’s only so much “welfare” available. I’m stuck. 🙁
