Ya all know what? I finally paid off my 13. yeah, how bout that! May was my last payment to send in for the dastardly thing yet the lingering effects of its existence is haunting me today. I called my attorney who was supposed to file for the remaining charges in the middle of last month (or so the trustees office told me), but never did. After a brief conversation I was assured it would be taken care of last week, or the beginning of this week at the latest. Well, that hasn't happened so I'm still working with him to get that taken care of. The trustees office was so kind to let me know it'd be atleast 60 days after he filed the motion for additional fees before the case would be discharged. ......................... 60 days? Hasn't this gone on long enough? You newbies look through my past posts to find out how this has affected my life. But I'll let you all in on a bit of a secret about this fine piece of legislation the government shoved down our throats.
For another 60 days I'm unable to seek any credit. I'm stuck again. For the past several months I have had to put off paying my house payment to pay for things most normal people would have used credit for. This includes an $800 bill for my vehicles transmission (oops, another house payment behind... this was #3 I believe). But in a Ch13, you have to play by the rules... no credit, remember? Kiss the a** of the trustee and hope and pray you'll be discharged. Well, now I'm out of the stupid 13, only to be 4 months behind in my house payments. I'm more in debt now than before. But this is trivial. I came home a few days ago to find a 60 ft locust tree in my back yard eaten up with carpenter ants. This was on the 1st, the normal time I made my house payment. But with the wind blowing and the tree pulling up the ground around it in the wind, I HAD to take the tree down immediately or risk the thing blowing over taking out my shed. $800 later and the tree is gone, and so is another house payment. I have to say, I'm at a loss here.....
I'm so frustrated by all this. It has caused so much stress in my life that it has affected my relationship, my job (career), my physical health, not to mention I'm now on medication and testosterone shots to replenish what the stress has taken away from me. I'm on Xanax for constant chest pain as well as other meds for tension.
I came home this morning to find my dogs decided to do a number on the carpet in my living room. A living room that's carpet looks more like the carpet bombing after ww2 than anything resembling a home. I got out my 13 yr old carpet cleaner to clean it only to find it was broken and wouldn't suck any water up. I was so angry... well, the carpet cleaner is now a loss. I tried calling about getting the piss smell out by calling a pro, only to find it'd be $128 to clean the room. That's nice. The dog is another reason I'm behind on my house payment, blew a disk in his back.... so much for the house payment. (I know there are those who'd say "put him down"... umm, a red mini dachshund? no.. )
So I called my gf who reminded me of how nasty her friends carpet was before she replaced it. Must be nice.. up to debt to her eyeballs, out of job, yet has the ability to somehow get new carpet. Here I am though, stuck with this lingering 13 that just will NOT.. I stress, will NOT go away! I'm making nearly 100k a year and behind on my house payments, and unable to replace a room that smells like a toilet while the neighbor kids all come over. it's a complete personal disaster and an even worse embarrassment.
Whilst I was sulking on this thinking to myself "you're just being selfish and need to grow up" I looked down on the fireplace to see a 1/2 inch long black carpenter ant crawling into a crack in the fireplace. I don't have the money to hire an exterminator though. Perhaps I'll wake up to my house just crumbling.
You people posting on here about how excited you are that you're out of this thing? Wahoo for you. Enjoy your freedom. One thing I have learned from this. Being responsible in the USA gets you NO WHERE! Being a damn bum and just blaming everybody else for what ails you seems to work for everyone. perhaps I should give up my 100k a yr job and flip burgers at mcdonalds and get on welfare. Them people have more windfalls than I can count. It's sickening, and if I didn't have a gf, I assure you this would be my last post... and with what this has caused me at work, I'm lucky to be alive today posting this. And yeah, we're seriously talking suicide.. and yeah, now I'm going to counseling. The only fortunate thing is insurance with my job...
So for you people filing your Ch13's, good luck with that! Hope you get a payment that allows you some cushion for lifes unexpected bills, cause you're gonna have em..
