I met with my lawyer today after work to discuss what the next step(s) are. Yesterday he sent a fax the the Bitch's lawyer letting her know we were going to meet to discuss a partition action (similar to a foreclosure) and if they had made any headway. He received a fax back letting him know that my "sister" had applied for a mortgage and would know something in 2 weeks. For those who know my sister, she is still working nights and the lawyer gave the excuse that working nights makes it hard for her to get things done during the day. That has never stopped her before. BTW - the attorney has been practicing law on her own for less then a year, so I guess my "sister" has gotten her wrapped around her little finger.
I find it funny that her attorney is getting annoyed with my attorney who keeps faxing her letters and calling. We all know that the attorney will never get any control over her client but she should at least try to instill in the bitch the importance of getting this done.
Okay - so what are we planning on doing?
My attorney will be faxing a letter (probably on Monday) to the bitch's attorney with the following information:
Since we are pretty sure that the financing isn't going to take place (or something to that sort)
we are proposing that we agree to sell and sign an agreement or my "sister" does come up
with the financing my April 15th or we will start the Partition Action.
If my "sister" doesn't follow through I have to be ready to start the court process, there is no
backing out of it. We have to show we mean business.
My attorney wanted to give them 30 days and I told him I would rather 15 since they would use all the time that we gave them and they have had enough already. So, we compromised on April 15th. I hate the thought of starting the court process since that alone can cost me over a thousand dollars but if that is what I have to do in order to make her get off her ass I will.
I am hoping having such a short deadline to get things done will make her move. My attorney, in his letter, is going to say something about going to court being a lose - lose situation. I can't imagine that my "sister" would want to move. Not that I care but, she has a lot more to lose then I do but, that is her choice if she doesn't decide to follow through on what she is suppose to.
So, as of Monday when the letter gets faxed, the count down to April 15th starts. I don't know what day of the week that falls on but I need to be ready to go meet with an attorney down in Windham as close to that date as possible if we don't hear anything.
In the meantime, I am struggling with my urges. All sorts of anger is surfacing and I don't like it.
I don't like the bitch having control and I'm doing what I can to take it away. Which brings up a whole different set of feelings since I am going against everything I've ever done which is back done from the bitch.
If anything new comes up, I'll post....and the saga goes on...

Delima
First a quick update on what is happening with my sister - nothing! How's that for quick? I called my lawyer this morning and they haven't heard anything since last week. He is also reading between the lines and figures that they must be going ahead and getting the loan. It would be nice to know where it all stands but as my lawyer reminded me - they seem to be working on their own time table. Of course I always have the option of taking the bitch to course but we've come this far and it just doesn't make sense to do that.
Any way I knew when my father called a couple of weeks ago to tell me about my uncle he would start to initiate more contact with me. He hasn't sent me b-day cards in a few years. Today I got one in the mail and I don't know if I want to open it or not. I can't stand those cards that are all mushy. Full of how much he loves me, blah, blah, blah. He blew it a long time ago and proved a few years back that he still can't be in touch with his feelings or understand mine. The cards just seem so false to me.
So, I sit here wondering what to do with the card. Do I open it and get pissed at him for sending it but get a chance to make sure there is nothing written inside that I might be interested in. There are just a couple of relatives that I care about.
Do I just toss it out without opening it? Do I bring it to therapy and have Pam open it or I can open it there?
I'm pretty sure that I can't open it while I'm alone. Just know it is from him has upset me and I hate that. I hate that he can still get to me and cause a reaction. For someone who hasn't been a part of my for a very long time, why the hell does he have such an affect on my life?
Why can't I let go of these feelings and not let him get to me? He shouldn't have this much control over me. He didn't give a damn back then and I've gotten to where I am today without him being a part of my life - why can't I go on and not let him get to me? Why does it hit me so hard whenever he enters into my life - in his own way?

The latest EXCUSE
My lawyers office called today and they finally heard from my sisters' lawyer. It only took 2 weeks for her to return his call.
Anyway - the latest excuse for things being held up is: My sisters' lawyer is waiting to hear from my sister with the last name of someone that she wants to give $10,000 to. Yes, that is what my lawyers office told me. Seems like her credit must not be as bad as she indicated a year ago.
I hate to assume because we all know what that does but since we haven't heard any different - they must be accepting the offer we presented them with since they haven't come back with a counter offer. I also need to assume that she is in the process or has already applied for a loan if her lawyer is collecting a list of who is going to get money. It will be interesting to see how all this plays out. I better be getting the amount we offered or whatever work they have done is useless (not that it is my problem). I would love to find out how much money she is actually getting from the bank and how much she is keeping for herself. Who knows, maybe I will if I get a chance to glance at the paperwork. If all this is almost set I would like to know since I am going to have to take time off from work to go down and sign the paperwork.
My one condition on going down to sign the paperwork will be that my sister not be present and preferably not even know when I will be going down. I don't want to run into her. Once everything is signed and I have a check in hand, I no longer have to deal with her. YEAH!!!!!
It will be the best news I've gotten in a long time. So, the waiting goes on for a little while longer but if the bank is waiting for any information, she can't take too long to respond because the bank will not put up with it.
And the saga continues....
