I have a thought for today . . .
If you're going through HELL, just keep going.
That is what I had to tell myself for 10 hours today while I was being questioned to death during depositions. Depositions you ask . . . Lawsuit you wonder. Yes, I have once again been dragged into the law suit of our previous living situation-the condos I moved out of 2 YEARS AGO. If it wasn't enough that I have already given up 25+ hours of my week (plus some sanity) for almost 2 years in which I dedicated to the protecting of 76 homeowners interests as the HOA President, they have now asked me -2 YEARS LATER- to participate in depositions that now look like they could extend another 1-2 ENTIRE days. The babysitting costs alone . . . I haven't been on a real date with a babysitter and everything in months, but today I dropped a cool $68 on babysitting and in returned I got a headache and a free Diet Coke.
Today I was questioned by 1 1/2 of the attorneys involved and there's just another 14 to go. The billable hours in that room today was probably $2,000/hour and the paper . . . I can't even go there. Let's just say that I can recycle my newspaper for a life time and not put a dent in what was wasted today.
On the bright side . . . yesterday when unloading my cart at Walmart I somehow threw the entire carton of 18 eggs all over my purse, the floor and the groceries still in my cart. The checker said it was the best thing that happened all week. It looks like that is probably going to be true.
I missed my girls today!

Why are you still involved in all this mumbo jumbo? I am confused...
seriously, out of the kindness of my heart (my hear that is now bitter and hard) and i felt a little obligated since i really know more information than anyone for that time period. i was asked the nit pickious questions it made me sick to think of the un-productive time i was wasting!
Oh Ashleigh. I'm just glad we're out and that it's not me. So what is the latest? How much longer is that crap going to go on? You're a pretty nice person to do all of that. Hopefully one day it will end.
Do you get any money for all of this? I am sorry, that kind of stuff seems neverending and a waste of time. Good luck!
I can't believe you are still having to deal with that. I hope it comes to an end soon and you can be done with it.
Bless your heart! I am so sorry!
This sucks. It's one thing to be away from your kids to be on a hot date with your husband, but to do this?!? No way! Hope it's over soon!
so sorryAashleigh. What do you think is going to happen?
