I'm up early for two phone calls I was expecting today, both came early in the morning, and one of them was so stressful that it shook my foundation off of its rockers. My stomach is in knots and there's no way I am going to be able to eat today. There's no one around I can call even putting aside the fact that 90% of the people around won't talk to me anymore anyway.

I think I'm going to just go back to bed for awhile. I don't think I'll even be able to go out and read or get some air. My head is just spinning, and it feels like everything is coming back again.

I agree with Ozzie. Just take care of yourself and we will be here when you feel up to talking more. Sometimes we just have to say "To hell with the day."

I don't want to say the details for fear of someone I know reading this. I don't think the people involved are spying on me I just don't want to take the chance.

Hope you are feeling a little more at ease. Also hope whatever the phone call was has settled. I hate that blown out of the water feeling.

It's okay to take a break. Like Jessica said, sometimes you just have to say "To hell with today!"

I'll be saying a few special prayers for you.

Luv ya!

I really can't take a break, because I am on a deadline with regard to my mortgage. I am working hard, and more or less successfully, not to beat myself up for things I failed to do in the past, but if I had taken care of this a month ago I could have done it with no deadline pressure, much better chance of getting the loan I need, a better loan, and could have solved this before going into foreclosure. It would have only taken one phone call to get the ball rolling and see what my options were, the same phone call I ended up making after I was served the foreclosure papers.

I can't look back on that and say "I should have" but I can't sit by and let it happen again, especially since I am running out of "Get out of jail free" cards.

Dexter -- Please don't beat yourself up about not taking action sooner. I know a little bit about the foreclosure RE market -- and the phenomenon of feeling overwhelmed, of existing in denial and disbelief, is widespread. Which is how properties wind up in foreclosure. One's home is more than just a shelter but a highly emotional issue.

Many more foreclosure auctions are announced that ever take place, and most of those that are stopped are stopped at the 59th minute of the 11th hour. Investors who go to the auctions never know if properties that were on the docket as recently as the afternoon before will go up for sale.

The way you handled things, it's common. I hope you will give yourself some strokes for taking action NOW!

I am sorry that you are feeling so stressed out about the phone calls, and I hope that hugs and love of we here helps.

(((((Dexter))))), I wish I had more to say but I am not sure what the right thing would be. I am glad you could eat a little and best wished with the house. Yes, I hope you are able to get some sleep, you need it. Thoughts are with you.
