In a few weeks it will be one year since I started the process to have my sister buy out my half of the property which we hold jointly. To date, we are no further along then we were then except, the appraiser says he has done the appraisal. My lawyer said he must be chipping it out of granite because he can't seem to get us the few sheets of paper that the appraisal is printed on.
I wonder if this appraiser knows that fax machines work after normal business hours. We should have had the appraisal in our hands last week but the appraiser seems just as incompetent as the lawyer my sister has.

You would think I would be good at waiting by now, but it doesn't get any easier especially when you know that no one is pushing to get things done except on my end. And that doesn't really count if the other side doesn't do anything.

I am ready to go to the appraisers office and get the appraisal myself if that is what it will take. There is no reason we shouldn't have that in our hands. There is no reason this shouldn't be further along then it is except, that I'm sure my sister has told her lawyer not to push anything. And my sisters lawyer has a "so what's the rush" attitude, according to my lawyer. I am doing everything to keep this out of court which is why we are still sitting around and waiting for things to happen. If we go to court the only ones that win are the lawyers. My lawyer keeps telling me, that court is the last place we want to end up. I agree with him.

So, once again, I'm ready to kill people. How do you get people to do things that they should be doing? What happened to professional curtosey (sp)? I know my sister is behind a good part of the "don't rush things". But, you would think, knowing that court is an option, they wouldn't let things drag out to long.

I can't take the waiting and all the people not doing their job the way that they should. I can't imagine how they make a living when they function like they do.


Thursday is fast approaching and I have to go to the GYN for my ultrasound. I'm not really nervous about the ultrasound itself. What makes me nervous is, they just might find something. I tend to thing the worst. If by change they do find something, he will do a biopsy right then.

My TSH blood test came back slightly high. My GYN faxed the results to my PCP. So, now I'm waiting to see if my PCP is going to call. My GYN said the test should be repeated and a free T4 and T3 should be done. If this is really a problem, it can be corrected with medication. Just what I want to do, take another pill.

Isn't life just grand.
My right hip and sometimes my lower back has been bothering me for months. No time and energy to get that checked out right now. One medical problem at a time. I just can't deal with any more then that. So, when all this stuff with my GYN is done and over with, I'll make an appt. with my PCP to see what is going on with my hip. In the mean time Aleve is my friend.

Stress is what my life is about right now. The holidays will be over soon and I will be glad. I need to get past New Years and some of the stress should subside, then maybe I can go back to working on things in therapy that I was working on before Thanksgiving came around.

If anything new happens (and please don't anyone hold their breath) I will update you.
