Humans love to share their life's stories. Do it here. Not chat. Living with the liberal undead and their touchy feely ideas gives us all massive migraines!

No one ever said life was fair - the most we can hope to achieve is justice, IMO. Everyone deals with some level of what is perceived to be unfair - perhaps just the sharing and venting might give some relief as well as some potentially new paths to take.

I will try to be brief: It appears that my bank USAA has managed to sell my home Equity loan to an individual without my knowledge or permission. His intension is to forclose on my house and take possession tomorrow (41-2025) If that happens, I will be put out on the street. Please say a pray for me..

Not that anyone gives a hoot. After all of these years that I have been a contributing member of the board. So sad and apparently nobody gives a hoot.

Ted, I am now, and have been, saying prayers for you. I know well what it's like to be relatively homeless and lost my home many years ago - with 2 young children in tow. I am praying that this blessing goes through for you, and many others. I live in a piece of crap small mobile home now with a leaking roof, episodes of mice invasions, etc. - I never was able to get another "real" home. We lived in a travel trailer for a while until I could find a place to rent, and again when the home I was renting was needed for the owner to move back into - right at the time of the Black Forest Fire - no place to rent that was remotely affordable (scalping). So we again lived in a travel trailer - ended with no water (frozen), a malfunctioning heater, and my kids were showering at the school or the truck stop - it was 15 below that Christmas season. If you have access to something like that, it can be a life saver. I would also encourage you to check military resources.

Ted, I've heard of people fighting eviction by going to the bank that holds the mortgage and asking to have a copy of the ORIGINAL loan papers that you signed. Banks sell mortgages in a bundle, in most all cases, the bank cannot produce the ORIGINAL. I don't know the process, but in the cases where the bank cannot find the original, the eviction is stopped. Perhaps, you can start researching this process on line. Good luck.

This likely will be my last post on the WISOM board. it appears that at least one of the board moderators has taken a strong dislike for me so I will stop posting and only on occasion read the boards daily post. As the old saying goes "May Fair Winds and pleasant seas give you comfort"

Ted, everyday is a blessing! We all go through stages in life where seems like nothing's going right. Someone told me once I needed to make a gratitude list. Just sit down with a paper and pencil and write down 10 things you're grateful for and all the sudden everything doesn't seem so bad.

TED - Call the Church you help found and ask for help. Venting frustration and telling (others here) you are going against Gods creation/law is two very different roads.

 

A strong man knows when to ask for help.

Ted, have you checked with Medicare? They have a lot of plans that you can get 30 hours a month in rides to wherever you need to go. Also I think the VA would be willing to help you if you would contact them. You might even qualify for a caregiver to come by and help you with everyday tasks. We have all felt like we were at the end of our rope. People are trying to help you, if you don't respond what else can we do?

One day - you have some good thoughts. As you know, I posted several potential links for help; he never talks to me, but none-the-less, I'm very concerned about him. Note that many of these agencies would not help with his dogs whom I believe he cares very much about. I have been praying for him daily. I wish I could do more, but again, if he doesn't reach out and respond, what can we do. I believe he's been depressed since the loss of his wife, and have seen his mood decline since that time.

It's really hard to hang on to a dream (foreign currency exchange) while I'm sitting here all alone with my two dogs and some money in the bank and needing to go to the store to refresh my supply with no means of transportation but my two feet. I walked down to the store (Walmart) a couple of days ago. The trip took just over two hours and the only way that I made it back was by using one of the stores shopping carts that is still sitting in my garage now. I'm surprised that nobody stopped me, but it was late, and I guess nobody took interest in what I was doing. Oh yes I'm not sure if I mentioned this: Ever since my wife passed away (four years ago) I have made a weekly trip to our grave site and sat there with her in prayer. Since my truck is broken, I am unable to make that trip either I'm trying to remain positive during this whole event but it seems to get more difficult as the days roll by. (Greenrage) has taken a great dislike for me and I'm afraid that if he had his way that he would or will Bann me from using the site. I certainly hope not since I still have many friends that I have made over the years since became a member of this site.

Hi TED:

I feel your pain. I've had some challenging things going on with my business since the start of the year, and it's getting to the point that I get discouraged almost every single day that this goes on and on without any results. Recently, I've looked at putting all of my currencies into the deep freezer and walking away from any interactions regarding Dinar so that I can focus on things that I can impact instead of concerning myself with things I cannot impact other than through prayer.

If you get the chance, read through the book of Job. You may have read it in the past, but if you read it now, it will probably have a dramatic impact on your life, especially with what you are going through. I know I've had to read it a number of time to realize that God will carry me through just about any life challenge as long as I trust in him for our provision in life.

Romans 8:28 says "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." It's not easy walking through everything that has happened to you, and I'm sure that my current negative business challenges do not hold a candle to what you have been through.

In any case, Proverbs 3:5-6 says "Trust in the Lord with all Your Heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your path."

Just know that you have people here that care for you and are behind you. You are going to come out on the other end of this blessed beyond belief, whenever that may be.

Keep on keeping on.

I just got this from a friend who knows what I am currently going through and I hope this blesses you.

Isaiah 43: 1-3
Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;
I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.
For I am the Lord your God,
the Holy One of Israel, your Savior;

Ted sorry for what you are going through…a lot of people waiting for this to happen and you have been given some wonderful advice from members of WSOMN… however you need to stop bashing green and making it seem like he/she is against you!! The only thing that has been asked by green is that you post your messages in this thread and not on the main board!!! Sometimes many times in the same day. Other than that nothing I have read has been out to get you or get you banned!! Just respect what is asked and please stop bashing her

Ted, if I truly believed that Wells Fargo would redeem my foreign currency right now and I had no transportation to keep an appointment, I would walk if I needed to. Or I would call a cab, or a neighbor or pay a teenager to drive me. Or there is the option as has been posted, call Medicare. Or, call 211.
I'd even ride my lawn mower to the bank...lol

We are your friends and care about you and want you to be happy. We keep you in our prayers, also.

Ted , many people have tried to reach out to you. Many people actually care, where you say nobody gives a hoot. Please know people are trying to help you but not one time have I seen a reply from you! Just doesn't make sense. Please at least let us know you're reading these messages. Do the things you can do Ted.

I'm reading Judy's post at this time while I wait for my late sister (Maryann) husband to come over and take me to the Walmart to get my groceries. His wife was the last child born to my mother and Father while they were still alive. Both of them have passed away now just prior to our mother moved us here to San Antonio. Many years ago I was able to locate my father and established a few good years with him prior to his passing away a few years later. You know the story is always different when you listen to each of their reason for divorce.

Mis late sister (Maryann),s husband came by and took me to the store so I could restock my home food. (Got most of it) After that I decided to call a local car repair shop to have my starter replaced. They finally came and now the shop is closed so they will call me back tomorrow (I just hope I can cover the cost of repairs to my truck.) If not, they may have to wait until I can find someone to loan me the money. My credit rating is somewhere close to "Negative possibly" So my memory of the truck being towed to the shop may be all that I have. Any possible prayers for me at this point will be greatly appreciated. Just another one of those life battles that I have to deal with. or

One-day makes a good point - we try to help as much as we can, but it's not acknowledged. But, that's ok, I will continue to try and be helpful, if only to again offer a prayer that your truck can be fixed. I think we'd all feel better if we knew someone was looking in on you regularly.

GEG - I get having business problems, and the passages you offered were nice and appreciated.

Well, as it is after having mt truck wrecker to a repair shop, it turns out that they believe it would take far more to repair my truck than it was worth. I offered to sell them my collection of tools and after taking the tools out there they decided that they would not accept my tools but offered "and accepted" They gave me $400.00 for my truck as it is. i accepted and their driver brought me back home and I unloaded my tools into my garage. After sulking at home for a while I noticed my neighbor that lives across the street from me had 4 old trucks in front and on the street in front of the house. He was sitting out on his front porch, so I decided to go and ask him if I could borrow one of his old trucks to make a run to the store for some much need groceries. He agreed to loan me an old Chevie 4X4 truck with a bed full of some cut up large tree limbs. I offered to pay him, and he said that was not needed and handed me the keys to the truck. I loaded up a Walmart cart that I had used a couple of days ago when I spent four hours walking to the store for some "got to Have groceries" (Yes I walked for over four hours going to and from my local Walmart) So I said all that to say this: "I am about the "most Determined man you will ever know"

Having said that When I returned from the Walmart from shopping this morning, I noticed that my neighbor was no longer sitting on his front porch, so I took advantage of that decided to go out and visit my late wife's grave like I having been doing every week for the last four plus years. I just got home, and the neighbor is still not out on his porch so, for now at least his truck is parked in front of my garage door.

So here is where I sit now: The four hundred that I got for my old truck plus what I do still have from the money I spent on groceries is $300.59 plus $839.00 in my checking account. Now my Social Security money should be coming in this coming week. (That's been a little over 1,600) Maby that will increase this month or not!) I still have regular expenses as most folks in my age bracket will understand.

I would appreciate some of our board member close to my age bracket's opinion. If you have the time. I have never bin the close to being in between such a rock and a hard place like this. Prayers most certainly would very much appreciate.

Ted why not ask the neighbor if you can buy the truck from him, make payments to him, or see if there is something you can trade to him for it. Work or maybe you have something he would want. Since he has 4 trucks he may be willing to part with one. Negotiate with him. offer payments if trade not possible. He may need help with something else. Running errands for him. Just trying to think outside the box
Hope it helps
