Sale of the Car
So yesterday I found out there were some "problems" with getting the faxed legal papers to my sister, so they weren't able to fax them back to the lawyer, which means I couldn't sell the car, which means:
A. The buyer can change his mind at any time
B. If I don't get my money out of that car by Saturday we are in deep deep trouble.
Sister's husband said not to worry, because if the buyer backed out, they would take the car.
Not really a good thing, since:
A. Then it stays in my driveway until they decided to come all the way from Colorado to get it.
B. The Estate needs the money from the sale to continue paying the bills until the house is sold.
C. I wouldn't get my money out of the car until Probate was over.
D. That's fucking bullshit after I've put so much time into getting the stupid car sold, especially the part where I PAID THE LOAN OFF WITH MY OWN MONEY. "Oh, don't worry, we want the car." My ass.
I was furiously sending emails back and forth to my sister's stupid husband, who swears no fax ever came through, even though the lawyer had the verification that it did.
I was seriously having a panic attack yesterday, like I was really worried about myself, my pulse was through the roof and I kept having to stop and think "Take a deep breath... BREATHE..." All night long.
I had managed to get lost in some TV show and was calming down when Spike asked about the car. I told him what was going on, and to please not mention it because I was going to have a stroke if those papers didn't get signed by today, and I needed to somehow forget about it. I was afraid I would be up all night worrying about it, or go to bed and have a heart attack from the stress.
Eventually though, I managed to go to sleep.
I got to work, and around 9am the lawyer called, said the papers had been signed and faxed back.
I almost screamed YAYYYYY into the phone. Yes, I was a bit on edge, heh.
I emailed the buyer right away. We're going to complete the sale tonight. OhmyGosh that's the best news I've heard. Right down to the wire. No, it wouldn't have been a problem if I had just not paid off the loan, but I had to in order to sell the car and the fact is, it was my money and I need that money. Who knew it would be so hard to sell a Prius??
"Oh don't worry, we'll take the car." Yeah right, and bill the estate another $2000 to fly your entire family back out here, and then all the gas and hotel costs to drive it back to Colorado, right? I'm so sick of that family.
