Bad Times | Pad Patter 7/19

If @umyesh asked about what you are excited about, I'm thinking about all of the "bad" things of life right now.....something you are stressing about or anxious about etc.

In your life right now, is there anything you are stressed and anxious over? If so, what?

Definitely, in fact I'd say life is way more stress and anxiety inducing than exciting

If so, what?
Of course, the long job search, my on going chronic health issues but there's been a much bigger issue at play as well. For awhile now my mum has had financial issues due to her own chronic health issues (heart issues and lingering effects from Long COVID) so her house lender got fed up and forces foreclosure/mortgagee sale. Luckily we have found an alternative loan options that will enable us to keep the house and stop the foreclosure auction which was due to happen next week

Sorry about all the stress Jennifer!

I’m stressed about back to school for my kids. Wish me luck!

 

[Karen]

Oh my gosh Jennifer. That is awful and sounds incredibly stressful. I’m so glad you were able to find an alternate loan!

Yes, very stressful as if things didn't work out there would be a 99.9% chance we'd end up homeless. Hoping everything works out this week while we get the loan approved but in the meantime, definitely stressful and anxious times.

I'm so sorry about your stress Jennifer. Last year at this time I was learning that I would be facing heart surgery and all the testing leading up to it was stressful for me. This is a much better summer for me.

Oh my goodness, Jennifer, how stressful! I hope everything will work out on the new loan.

As for me, life isn’t great right now. I broke my tibia and Fibula on July 7 and am still really struggling with that. It remains extremely painful, I can’t walk, I can’t drive and I can’t really do anything for myself. Doctor says 3 months without putting any weight on it which seems like forever. Yes, I’m feeling rather sorry for myself. We have a big trip planned (and paid for) in August and not sure if I can go or, if I don’t what we would do if I stayed home.

Wow, so scary. I'm glad you found an alternative loan option.

My 95 y.o. father currently has COVID, he's not a good patient, so I'm worried about him overdoing and landing in the hospital.

Right now finances and coming up with money for the future. I have plans in place that will take a lot of funds and I am so nervous i won't have enough when the time comes

Jennifer, how terribly stressful for you and your mother. I’m glad you’ve found an alternative

 

[mary kate]

How are things going, Jennifer @littlekiwi? Have been thinking of you and your mum

Monday morning my mum went to see a lawyer & we've managed to get a three week extention/delay on the foreclosure/mortgagee sale so now it's just a waiting game for the new bank to approve the new loan so the stress levels have reduced considerably in the past few days....we aren't quite in calm water yet but it's certainly not as choppy as it was!

I'm sorry you've been dealing with this stress! Hoping it all works out ok.
