I'm Back......and Loaded For Bear!

Okay.  I know I have not posted in a while.
I was mourning having to sell my goats, mourning the death of my relationship and mourning the demise of my former life on the farm.
NO MORE !
I got a job here in town.
I checked with a lawyer.
You see, the ex was soooooo sure I would never find out about his lies and numerous infidelities and was so sure of my love, that the house and land is in my name and my name ONLY.
Yeah. I own the farm, lock, stock and barrel.
So, I sent the ex a rental contract.
He countered by offerering to "negotiate". We met at a friends house (neutral territory) and he wanted to know how much it would cost him to buy me out and take possession of the property.
I named my price, he agreed to it.
Then I told him off. Not angrilily, but calmly. I called him a sociopathic child and informed him that I felt something much more dangerous towards him than hatred. I feel indifference.
Pure indifference.
What happens to him from here on in is all his fault. I will no longer be there to help him, protect him, cheer him up when he is having a rough time.
And honestly, it will ALL be rough times from here on out.
He is supposed to make the first payment on the farm on Oct. 27th.
If he doesn't, the farm goes up for sale the next day.
And I told him all that and more.
I'm back. And ready for anything.

  2. It's none of my business but why not evict him and move back? You could get a roommate to help with the utilities. Selling him the farm is a way to stay connected, a reason to still see each other. Prolonging the agony. Just my two cents worth. Feel free to tell me to shut up. By the way, the two cents worth blog is dead and gone soon. the mohave Journal. blogspot will be the only one!

    1. Dear Rat, I don't plan on staying here. And the only agony that will be prolonged is his. Oh yes....
      My sons, knowing how devestated I was initially, gave me a pep talk. They asked me "What did you do to people in the past that threatened your kids or who threatened you?"
      The answer was three words.
      I destroyed them.
      It is not vengence. I do not do it in anger or rage.
      Everything is very objectively calculated. No emotion. Calmly. Coldly.
      I do not invest much time or effort into it. I simply set the wheels in motion and let the persons own behavior patterns do the rest.
      Sometimes it is fun to watch, though.
      Anyone who doubts my ability to do this...ask someone who has known me for a long time....(Tina, care to comment, lol!?)

    2. All it will take is a small wind on a domino to send the whole mountain falling in on itself.......if Lamb wants to be that gentle breeze that sets it in motion....he should consider himself lucky. :D

Because of a couple of rude people that left comments that included links to porn pages and such, I have been forced to start moderating comments again.
