It doesn't work with everything though. Did I mention that I may be losing my home? I got into a bad mortgage and at the time, I wasn't quite told everything which is my fault I never knew I needed a lawyer to read the contract, I thought this was a little more commonplace document. Refinancing isn't an option because currently the value is 1/3 what I owe. So now I am trying to do a short sale to a lovely anonymous friend who will in turn rent it to me. If that doesn't work then my next option is foreclosure. In the meantime, I am no longer paying my mortgage. There is no advantage to my paying it, and I was discretely advised not to. Not to mention that the mortgage company, when I tried to negotiate with them several years ago, told me as long as I was paying my mortgage they wouldn't talk to me. They're talking to me now. They don't really care that I have cancer, but oddly enough I understand. It's their job and if they had a choice I'm sure they would be doing something else.
I have lots of choices. I actually have a good job, good insurance, loving family and friends. So I try to have compassion for the people who cannot find any employment except to call people and demand money they don't have. And I have been polite until one young lady asked me why couldn't my husband pay. I called her impertinent, which I doubt that she understood the meaning (OK now I am being snarky). They will continue to call and I will continue to tell them I have cancer, and it won't matter because the cancer card doesn't work with everyone.
Okay, but how are the eyebrows? :)
