Seeking God Knows What

ARGH

I’m pissed.

My cell phone rings this morning and I assumed it was my sister MK who always calls at 9 am , but it wasn’t. They asked for T, who happens to be home since we had originally planned to go up north today instead of tomorrow, so he has the day off.

I knew right away by the tone of his voice who it was….

It was f-ing HSBC deciding now they wanted to attempt to get the difference.

Do they NOT get it?

It is like squeezing a turnip. THERE IS NO EXTRA MONEY HERE!

In fact, the only reason we are going away overnight tomorrow for our anniversary is because my mom and I had a garage sale last weekend and I made enough money for us to go.

I’m working on a cash basis here.

Here’s the thing: I went online to our mortgage account because we got a notice for a payment in the mail and I wanted to make sure everything was taken care of. I go to the account transaction history and there in bold letters it says WRITE OFF next to the difference between the short pay and the balance owed. I printed that page. You know what the woman said when T told her this: We write it off from that account to start a new account. What a crock of shit.

Whatever you do pray that your mortgage never gets sold to HSBC. THEY SUCK.
