    I knew my ex MIL would never leave that crap hospital.
    They expect her to pass away at any time.
    😢

    She passed away last night.

    Side note: when the assisted living gave her the Heimlich they broke 5 ribs and her sternum.

    Is that normal? Does anyone know?
    Seems drastic to me, she was a small woman but physically healthy.

    I’m sorry you’re going through this. Condolences.

    Got a call from my mortgage company. Because of increased property taxes, plus home insurance rates going up across the board, my monthly mortgage payment just jumped $400 per month!

    I know of people who got majorly screwed over by having a variable mortgage instead of fixed and it jumped $1,000.00+ which is insane and I feel badly for them. Can't believe a jump of $400.00 seems "reasonable" to me

    My hip. I thought it was a right hip flexor but it's not. It's probably somehow related to my messed up back but it hurts and makes me walk with a limp when I stand up from sitting. I hate it

    Recently had to see a specialist because docs thought my hip was gone but turns out it was my back again .. another prolapse disc .

    So maybe you’re on the right thinking track?

    Dr Google said it could be from the back. Perhaps I'll work on that. I actually stretched my back today and after that it felt better

    30 items on my work to-do list this week, plus 2 meetings and 3 medical appointments. And a bunch of stuff I need to do outside of work. And my writing business that desperately needs my attention.

    It’s only Tuesday and I’m already exhausted 😴

    So it's the escrow part of your mortgage payment that is increasing. The good news is that if they overreacted and increased it by too much, you'll get a check from them at the end of the year. There's a limit as far as how much a mortgage company can legally hold in escrow. If, after your insurance and taxes are paid, the amount left is over that limit, they have to give it back to you.

    Depending on how long you have had your mortgage and how much is left on your loan, you might be able to close your escrow account. I did this to keep my mortgage payment consistent. But, then you are responsible for paying the insurance and property taxes on your own.

    Wow, I've never been so insulted in my life. When printing on someone else's computer, I was hit with a pic on a website of someone I don't....er...like and said "*kitten* you, person I don't like" and my co worker said she thought I liked him! I'm like "NO! I would NEVER vo....er like him!"

    I feel so dirty now :(

    Adding $34 in fees to $54 tickets is INSANE. Plus $9 insurance just in case. For a concert I’m only going to because a friend invited me to go. Coulda saw twenty one pilots for that.

    I don’t know. She’s at a Basketball Arena so it’s a pretty big venue. I don’t really listen to her or follow her aside if she comes on when I’m making myself listen to old music. Lol.
