We have a lawyer who is trying to head off the inevitable. He’s fairly confident that he can negotiate some kind of deal to end the foreclosure, even if it’s not going to be easy.
Last we had heard, they were pushing for full payment of $160,000.00+ (which annoys me since we only mortgaged $137,000.00 and had made over a years’ worth of payments before all this started). He says that if we can put up about $30,000.00 (twice what I have on hand right now) they’ll have no option but to reverse the foreclosure and resume our mortgage.
We’re also trying to get them to sign off on a partial payment and spread the balance of our backlog over a couple of years. We have enough in income right now to not only survive but also to survive and resume our regular mortgage payments, but just can’t cut through the backlog from when I was hospitalized.
I want to thank everyone here who has clicked the “donate” button on the website over the past week. Especially some people who have donated in the triple digits. I will be contacting everyone who gave personally very soon. The money raised won’t get me completely out of trouble, but it’s certainly going to help.
I had no idea that so many people cared about the strip and/or me. Thank you all. Hopefully I’ll be in a better mindset before the pre-made strips run out, and I’ll be able to keep a roof over my head, and keep the strip going.
I wanted to post a quick update for everyone.

Here’s hoping, at least.
