Confessing this in here cause I don't need people to tell me god will show the way. Whatever . . .
Tred and I met with a financial planner several weeks ago who has been analyzing our numbers. I had a voicemail from him this morning and we just got off the phone with him. They're recommending bankruptcy.
I confess I'm terrified. I just don't know enough about it and have tons of questions for the lawyer. Just left HER a message and am waiting for a call back to schedule an appt.
I confess I'm ready to take the percoset left over from my c-section. Pretty sad when I can refrain from taking them after having a huge hole cut through my stomach but I need one now because my birth control is making my back hurt.
I didn't take any, so I have a full bottle. Plus DH has a full bottle from when he got his wisdom teeth removed. I think I'm going to take one before bed tonight if I can hold out that long. I am shaking and nauseous from the pain. I should probably see a doctor... but I know all they'll do is give me pain meds and send me home, so why bother?
I confess that filing bankruptcy was one of the best things Jimi and I ever did. We had a condo that we couldn't have gotten out from under to save our lives, medical bills and his car that got repo'd after his DUI. Add to that the facts that he lost two family members in a year and in that same year my brother and his family of five moved in with us and didn't do crap to help out.
Two more years and we will be buying a house.
Same here! DH and I filed back in 2006. We were really really on the verge of pretty much being homeless. Filed for bankruptcy, and i'm telling you, the stress that it relieved is like no other. We are now debt free! We still don't have a lot of money, but we don't have any debt either.

Yep and we haven't been over thirty days late on any payments since. We filed February of 2007. We could have saved the condo but we chose to walk away, it would have dug us even deeper in the long run. It was a POS and we knew when we went to sale it, we would be assed out big time.

Took half a percocet about an hour ago. Still not feeling any difference so I'm going to take the other half now. This sucks.
That has got to be really scary. I hope you get your questions answered.
I don't know the back story. What kind of birth control are you on that is making you hurt so badly? And I don't think I can check back before I go to bed, but if you're in this much pain, I think that something is wrong and it may not be a question of getting pain meds as a solution and at the very least I would recommend calling a nurse helpline or your MD after hours line and talking to someone right away, if you don't want to go in. Otherwise, I would say GO IN. If it's an IUD or something, you could have an infection or it could be misplaced or I don't know what else but if the pain is more significant that post-surgical incision, I would say you need to seek medical attention.
I hope you get better quick!
My sister called me and said "I am so sorry for your loss" and I was like "huh???"
I didn't put two and two together since my husbands step dad died this morning too, although I didn't think she knew about that.
She says "Yes, I'm so sorry that your first boyfriend has passed away."
When I was little I always said Michael Jackson was my boyfriend. I also had a poster of him in my bedroom and said he protected me from the monsters.![]()
