It Figures

So… after visiting another mortgage lender today, we’re pretty much gearing up to not get a mortgage.  Like, at all.

Luck is just isn’t on our side, it looks like.  Between the fact that my ex-fiance has screwed my credit score over (after eight years you’d think he would have stopped fucking with my life from hundreds of miles away) and the fact that Simon’s employment history hasn’t been consecutive (because the government sucks), we may have to wait a year and a half before we can even apply for a mortgage.

Which really, really, really sucks.

I cried the whole way home.  It seems so stupid, but all I kept thinking about was how much I wanted that house and how much I needed that house and how I knew it was just too good to be true because my luck just sucks.

But.  It’s not final yet.  It may be ok.  We have to wait until tomorrow.  And so, off to bed with an Ambien or two to drown my sorrows.
