so pissed I don't even know what to say

Seriously. I am livid. A half a xanax has'nt even abated my anger. Most you may already know about the whole truancy thing at school. Well we have to pay $376 in fines by tommarrow. Well fr 2 months my husband has been wanting to junk a '93 dodge truck my mamaw gave me last yea. I have told him over and over no. Well this AM he woke me up and told me he was going to junk it to pay the fines. Even though I told him no cause it was still in her name and let him know that in no way I approved. Well he just got back. Got $400 out of it. I told him he needed to call her and tell her. He won't. He already knows how I felt about it in the first place, now he don't even care enough (or more then likley don't have the balls to) tell her he junked her truck. Then he has the brass to say to me: "I am the man of this house and you are a woman so SHUT UP!" I told him:"Well, well Mr. Man put your man pants on and call the woman." Long story short he won't ever say that again. Oh and for the record there was nothing wrong with the truck only reason I was'nt driving it was because insurance had lapsed. So thats why I am pissed off like a wet cat and actually considering divorce. I mean that was a pretty lowbrow cold thing to do, right? And I don't even know if it was legal. It was definatly not moral.

((Thunderbear)) - I'm very sorry you're upset and justifiably so. I agree with everything you said and good for you in sticking up for yourself. I agree your mother does have the right to act legally on this - he did break the law. I think your husband must be very desperate for the money to pay these fines - like the old saying "robbing Peter to pay Paul".

Feeling livid is an awful feeling...I've been there. I would usually construct a far better post, but I'm feeling down ATM myself and lose my creative writing ability. I didn't want you to be waiting for responses while being livid. Don't make any sudden decisions about divorce when you're upset. I don't think he did it to be spiteful - I think these are the actions of a desperate man. Hugs to you.

Hello, thunderbear. Sorry this happened.

I wonder how the transfer of title to the vehicle was accomplished since neither your mamaw nor you transferred title to your husband.

I don't know, Byz. Thata what I'm wondering, too. I mean any junk yard owner would rather sell a working, drivable car instead of junking it. More money that way. But I have also seen junk yards switch VINs in situations like this. Junk yards can be underhanded like that. At least the one I used to work for.

And Lynn, I hope you get to feeling better soon thanks for replying. And that was well said and good advice

whhhoooa you go girl!!! the hubby needs a good kick in the whazooo-o. sorry bout your truck. he sure wasn't using his mind when he sold it for junk and it wasn't even his! go figure. men... hu-rummf.
