Well slap a chicken and paint me red! I asked for a miracle and, by gaifen, I got one. The results are back from American General. The house was reappraised by them for $115,000 ($25000 more than the Sheriff's crew), and they've agreed to help us. For a mere $850 ($150 more than before : /), we get to keep the house. We can refinance in three years for a lower rate, but we have to keep the house spotless until then. They'll be inspecting it every three months for awhile. I'm Staying Here!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT: It occurred to me that most people probably won't recognize me by this newer login. I've gone through quite a few... Spatch, Sturmfaust, Vicious Penguin, and Wolfram.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm sure you've all heard me, at one time or another, go into a grief session and describe the financial trouble of my family involving the irreplacable ~$25,000. I had been there when the first court summons arrived, and all mom would tell me was that it would probably happen after Christmas '04. As far as I know, that summons was dismissed, or is about to be executed.
At around two o'clock today, the county sheriff arrived with an appraisal crew and a statement from GMAC detailing the foreclosure of the loan, or something like that. Mom thought that they had a repayment plan set up, but that seems to not be the case now. We owe them around $8,000, and now they've come to collect their dues.
We're going to have to move, unless some miracle can let keep this house. I don't when it'll happen or where we'll go, and I don't know if I'll ever be able to return here. I'm making this post now, while I can, because I'm not sure if the loaners will repossess some of our belongings.
And now the paragraph I had hoped I'd never have to type...
It's been an amazing two years here. Almost half of my friends in this life were met here, and a good deal of what I consider friends I'd trust my life with. I've been affected in ways I can never fully describe; some bad, but most were good. I'm going to continue making trimonthly payments from my own paychecks to keep my account alive, and to help keep this place alive as well as such a paltry amount can. There are so many people here I would like to thank and give my regards to, although I fear that in making a list, I would undoubtedly forget some people and make them feel unjustly wronged. If you think that I considered you a friend even in the most remotest sense of the word, and were not listed here, my deepest apologies. This list is in no particular order. Honestly, I would list everyone here if I could, save for a choice few whom I shall leave unannounced but probably know who they are.

I'm truly sorry if I forgot anyone, it's hard to think clearly right now.
And so, I say farewell while I definitely can, unless something good happens... I'll be on if I can in the future, with a more defined resolution to this. Maybe this will be resolved well and I can come back. We might get into one of the better apartments in town with cable, or we might even be able to keep the house. I'm just posting this while I can.

Man I hate to see that happen to anyone. I've been there before. The larger companies never like to work things out. Sorry this happened to your family, best of luck to you.
Safe travels

Thats a lot to have to deal with. I understand how that can feel, one door closed, ten new open. May this year be better than the last.

A lot of old names on that list, ones that I which were still around... and it looks like yours may become one as well.
I hope everything works out for you and your family, mine has been through its share of financial problems too.
Hope to still see you around, bud.

I wish you the best, it must be a very rough time for you and your family.
Also, I am noticing I never make anybody's DS list.

Jon.. I dont know what to say bro..
Thats just completely unfair.. theres plenty of people who deserve that &*@&**$? to happen to them, but youve never done wrong to anyone.. I cant understand that.
But hey bro, like always, you've pulled through, and I have no doubt that you and your folks are gonna bounce right back from this either.
I know I'll be seeing you soon, so I wont say goodbye, I'll say have a good bit of time off.
All the best mate.
