Key To The Emerald City

The year ended in pretty much the same way that it began crappy. My ex decided he wanted my car back since it was in his name. He had never driven the car nor made any payments on it. But, i didn't earn sufficient income at the time i bought it to get the car loan in my name . So,they put it in his. It seems my kids let slip that my relationship with K was more serious that he thought and his reaction was to hit back. I was really upset at first. He phoned me at work and really caught me unawares. He wanted the car right then. But i refused and said he had to wait until the weekend.Since i had winter tires on which i didn't want to give him.Once i had time to process it and have a chat with K and some friends.I realized it was actually not a bad thing. There is still 6 years of car payments left on it, so really hes just taken that away from me. It also simplifies the divorce settlement,since i would of had to use $26,000 of it to pay off the car loan to transfer the car to my name. So,for now i have an old beater to get around and im putting the money i was paying for the car loan away to save for a new vehicle.
2019,started off well.I went to the Capitol Club with K and we listened to some bands and brought in the New Year with some new friends . We could not get a cab home though and i suggested we get a bus. K mocked my thought but humored me and was shocked when i found us a bus that stopped right at the end of our road.

I did have to work all through Christmas so didn't get to participate much with all the celebrations. I had a meeting with my bankruptcy trustee last week and was pleasantly surprised to learn i could keep the extra money i earned for working the stat holidays.. so, i decided to treat myself to a laptop and some concert tickets. So,hence my first blog-post of the year. It was horrendously tedious trying to type a post on my phone

So,right now i am feeling positive  2019 will be a better year and hopefully like Dorothy i will find the key to the Emerald City
