So, it's been a week since I weighed in. I couldn't resist hopping on the scale this morning. Yesterday was such and awful day and I was pretty sure I'd done a good job with calories this week (even though I haven't been tracking calories) I was hoping the scale would give me some good news. It did =) 1lb down from 7 days ago. Pretty great news =)
Still really stressed. We talked to our bank yesterday and they are going to try and do a forbearance on the mortgage to give us time to get the squaters out of the house. The mortgage payment won't be due again until August 1st if they do. The guy said some of the laws had changed recently so he had to make sure he legally could do it, and is going to call us today. If that is possible it will be a relief. We bought the house from the bank and I know they don't want it back or to have to deal with the foreclosure legal issues (it's a community bank, not a big national one). Trevor use to work at the bank years ago and has seen them do a lot to help customers avoid foreclosure- so I know if they can help us out they will. We've had the house for 6 years, lived there for 5. We've never missed a payment or even paid late befor this year. We just ran into a bad situation and are doing our best to deal with it.
It's suppose to be a nice day in the 90s today so we are going to head out to the lake beach this afternoon. Just try to relax a little and not be so stressed.
Hope everyone else has a great day and is making progress!

Thank you sohck! Thank you Jim. I spent a large portion of last night reading through stories of 'tenant con artists' better known as 'professional tenants' or 'tenants from hell' (seriously, google any of those- it's unbelievable. I'm less convinced the system will be able to help much (basically anywhere country or state tenants are legally better protected then landlords and these tenants use that to their advantage). However our situation and the progression of our situation so closely mirrors the 'norm' for this. goes something like- sob story to the landlord, normally involving being the victim of a bad landlord &/or finances (check on both). Getting landlord to cut them a break on the rent/deposit when starting to rent (check) paying rent on time at first, then late, then not at all (check) while creating unsavory conditions or the appearance of such in the dwelling to use as ammunition against the landlord (check- lying about fridge, not telling us about water heater, etc...) lying about moving out (check) finally intimidation based on living conditions, not having time to move, court, etc... (check). I'm just hoping to get him out at this point by August and to move on. I know we won't be seeing any money back- expensive lesson but one we certainly will never repeat. Just hoping for best possible end on this one as soon as possible.
