Happy New Year!!!

Well its only 12 days into the new year and its looking like this is going to be a very busy year. Well my mom and I are on speaking terms and I am not looking for a new residence as of now but am still keeping my distance from her and letting her be i guess you would say. My brother and I still have the same relationship... which is no relationship at all (besides the fact that we have the same parents... lol). He still isn't doing anything around the house and just hiding out in his room and playing his stupid video games... He still hasn't pulled his weight around the house with any cleaning... he has stepped up his game and helped out with cleaning out the garage when needed but seeing how its been below freezing weather this last week... he's not doing much there either... It really makes me laugh how much he complains about not having any money and my mom and I "always" borrowing money from him but he won't start selling any of the junk we have to get rid of on e-bay... oh well i guess that's his biznas... In other news, I am proud to say that as of the 5th I am no longer a homeowner... My house was foreclosed and sold at a sherriff sale on the 5th... it went for $87,880 which the offers we were getting on the house were for at least $102500 so the bank definately lost in that sale... I'm kind of upset that it ended this way especially with all the help that i got from my realtor and all the offers we received on the house... I just wish i could have sold it and not gotten the foreclosure on my credit but it is what it is and hopefully my mom is right and after one door closes another opens... hopefully that's the case here.... i could really use the right door to open right now... but at least i can continue working on my credit by paying all my other bills on time and getting them out of default and paid off soon hopefully... my mom is trying to talk me out of paying my 2nd mortgage off but i'm pretty sure i'd be taxed on the balance owed as it would be written off and seen as a forgiveness of debt and how is that going to make my credit any better? does she really want me living here for another few years? i don't want to end up like her and it seems like she's trying to lead me down that path.. i'm done with my house i'm working on my credit and not goig to ever have another credit card and she's trying to tell me to skip out on my 2nd mortgage and pay everythign else off? that doesn't make sense to me... just like this whole taco bell drive thru diet... yeah right... maybe my mom should work for them and give them some of her ridiculous ideas... lol.... but everything else has been going really well so far this year.. its review time at work and i'm really hoping that i get a nice big fat raise so that i get paid either equally or more than my other assistant... because as of right now she makes $2/hr more than I do... and I have to clean up after her always!! she has been with the company for about 4 months and still doesnt know how to do basic things there... its bad when the manager has to ask associates how to do things.... well i better say goodnight for the night roxy has a hot date with one of her doggie boyfriends... dont worry she's spayed so there wont be any baby roxy's here... :( but goodnight and i love you all...
