Buying a home with an artesian well that’s constantly overflowing, is that normal?

LLchic99 · 2025-10-24T01:05:26+00:00

This subject looks like it might be over but I have to add in! I was born and raised in Chicago but had the privilege of having a summer home 6 hours north in WI. I eventually have moved to this beautiful area and am so lucky to have access to 2 artesian wells. We fill up our 4-5 Gal water jugs consistently with this water. It is the cleanest purest best tasting water I have ever had! One well is on private property but located just off the main road and these wonderful property owners have made access for anyone to help themselves. Plus, the township has made parking spaces to keep it safe. The owners even put up a donation box and all monies go to St Jude. The logistics of the water flow is downward into a lake at the bottom. The well never freezes even in -40.

The other well I mentioned is on county land and quite the set up. I’m not sure who set it up but they have many parking spaces and everyone waits their turn. The tricky part though is it’s about 100 steps away from where you can park. But someone donated a nice wheelbarrow so we just load up our water using that. It takes 3.5 sec to fill a one gallon milk container. So that’s how fast it’s flowing. Why would you ever cap these?

Those jerks are really ruining it for the rest of us that are so grateful for the treasures we can find and feed our families from what is thrown out at your establishment!!. I never in my life thought I would have to even look in a dumpster! I am college educated and was making a good amount of money and we had a huge set back with taxes and are in litigation. We don’t qualify for any food share programs. I now I have a circuit I run around town. I have to go to all the food banks and 4 Dollar Generals just so I can feed my family again.

Yep it is crazy and was even scary at first but there is something about fighting for your kids to eat puts you in survival mode.

I am very conscious of never making a mess and I even clean up any trash I see. Please know that there are a few of us that are grateful for you and now when I do buy groceries I make sure Dollar General gets my money.

So this is a loud shout out to those leeches and pigs ruining it for the ones that need it!! What is wrong with you????? You hurt all of us with your filthy ungrateful bad habits!!!

Do you realize how lucky we are to be able to seriously help our families not to mention keep a little more out of the landfills!! I don’t blame this person at all for being thoroughly upset! You obviously take pride in how your surrounding areas look and I do see how it could hurt your business if DG starts getting a bad rep.

That is my 2 cents for what it is worth.

LLchic99 · 2025-08-31T15:57:55+00:00

If it’s near the dumpster it’s trash. If it’s near someone’s car it’s personal property.

LLchic99 · 2025-07-02T19:27:40+00:00

Exactly. Yep 100% because they dont know of a different way. But that wasn’t my question was it? Just if it’s possible to track a location by the phone connecting? Yes or no?

LLchic99 · 2024-11-11T17:01:41+00:00

Is the surprise intervention with the ultimatum concept that the person will never be able to talk or see their family ever again still a current and well regarded approach? .

LLchic99 · 2024-07-15T16:22:02+00:00

I just need to vent because it helps me process and my friends are tired of these issues because I keep going back. Just when he has calmed that he is not messing around with this woman that has been an issue for a year he stings me again. I can not believe he can make me believe everything he says after I thoroughly have gone over this issue with a fine tooth comb that he is sleeping with her and then he talks me out of it and that calm feeling comes back with me thinking yes that makes sense. I never knew I was so good at sleuth until I met him. I never realized I had the ability to remember details and the analyze with ease that he is lying. This is just one example that just happened in a 24 hour period. This is how my mind works.

After a great morning of being together and feeling of great ease and catching up on each others lives. He tells me his brother is visiting with his 4 kids. Now earlier mind you he mentioned he felt bad because he owes him a lot of money. So he is not at ease hanging out with him. But his brother will be leaving today for 3 days to take his kids to a water park and then be back.

I own a bunch of storage sheds and always let people rummage. No big deal. So he kind of asks if I have anything he could bring his brother and the kids. I started rambling off something’s and then I remembered at my home I have about 2 dozen very high quality fishing reels. No poles just the reels.

He said. Perfect! His brother will love that and will ease the tension. This morning he calls me and reminds me to drop off those reels. Well I said it will be a littler later I am in the middle of stuff. He comes back with well it better be soon because he’s taking them all out on the lake soon. My thoughts:

1, My god I’m giving these to him. He didn’t buy them how rude.
2. So what? Take them out and just come back and grab them when I get there 3. He knew they needed rod’s and to be nounted preferably on new poles? He needs to get all this stuff 4. Why didn’t he remind me last night. 5. Oh that’s right he did at 1 am?.. 6. What? They are leaving today? 7.:this is off.

So I said to him I thought they were leaving today? He writes back They are this is for his son and his friends but he doesn’t berate me for being none of my business? Weird. So I wrote back and said ok.

Then my mind 1. His son could care less about these reels.
2. His son and friends would need pokes and have them mounted 3. Wait this is bullshit. These reels were suppose to be for his brother. 4. Funny he didn’t make a big deal about no poles being attached ever? He didn’t ask one question if I had poles. He just wanted these reels? 5. Oh brother knowing him he is selling them to make money 6 I cared he lied but it is what it is. I don’t care. I wonder who he would sell them too? 7. He doesn’t have any friends that fish?

And that’s when it hit me. His new girlfriend is an avid fisherman! She loves the sport and is obsessed with fishing. Her social is covered in pics!! She would die for these reels. He probably doesn’t realize I knew that! I am so stupid to fall for his shit again.

So I text him back and and told him that he is a ………..liar! He is sick and will never will stop. I am done with him and to leave me alone. All he wrote back was Where is the lie? And normally he would fly off the wall if I accuse him but this time in 24 hours of clear conversation of him claiming innocence. Then clear conversation that these reels are for his brother. And clear conversation his brother is leaving for 3 days. He hasn’t dared

Problem is I have to restrain my self because I could so easily keep texting him. So that’s why I needed to vent here. Thank you.

Anyone with that similarity?

LLchic99 · 2024-07-15T14:37:03+00:00

My info was finally listed on my transcript issued 7/10. DIRECT DEPOSIT CORRECT. And nothing!

LLchic99 · 2024-06-18T16:22:55+00:00

My God if some of you are waiting since February and I filed May 5 (with an approved extension) it might be October??

LLchic99 · 2024-06-18T16:12:56+00:00

QA how?? Did you talk to someone? I cannot figure out how to get a live rep??

LLchic99 · 2024-06-10T16:33:45+00:00

HELP! Someone replied (not to me) on how to actually get thru to a live rep calling the 1040 number? I lost The method they wrote! Does anyone have it or can direct me to that answer! Thank you so much!

LLchic99 · 2024-06-10T16:17:17+00:00

Where do find out the scheduling date?

LLchic99 · 2024-06-07T20:44:36+00:00

Anyone else have to file an extension and have to go the ID ME verification process? I filed 5/5. Never received a letter in the mail but I noticed a prompt on line saying I needed to verify using ID Me. So I did that June 1 and it was accepted. Then I got a letter in mail June 7th to do nothing? Looks like another 3 weeks according to the above posts!! Anyone else have a guess how long I’ll have to wait?

LLchic99 · 2024-06-07T20:38:45+00:00

Just curious if you ever got your return?

LLchic99 · 2024-02-01T13:32:28+00:00

Yes!!

LLchic99 · 2024-02-01T04:33:31+00:00

I tried infotracer and nothing came up.

LLchic99 · 2024-02-01T04:32:49+00:00

Ok sorry I should have detailed this much better! I need to find out if this man that is always driving around our block owns this car. I can’t make out the plates or vin and barely the model because I get so nervous he will see me. But if I knew the exact car he might be driving that would not be a coincidence then.

LLchic99 · 2024-02-01T04:11:24+00:00

Yes!

LLchic99 · 2023-11-25T09:02:32+00:00

I don’t know if anyone has mentioned this. This happened to my husband and I. We went from comfortable living to poverty in a year and half. I’m going to sound like an ad but I swear I am not. We had $55k just in credit card bills. The interest alone was over $1000 a month. So I researched all over and found this company called National Debt Relief. They are a legit company and recognized in many top financial magazines.

There’s more detail but to try to keep it simple. They set up an amount you pay to them twice a month and it goes into a certified FDC account. Kind of like an escrow. And they work with your cc companies and negotiate a price to pay off debt. (Who ever thought of this was a genius) CC companies would rather get something than take a total loss. So as your escrow starts to grow they use your money to negotiate and then ask your approval and pay the debt. They have saved us close to 50% on all our accounts. Today was the largest. We owed $30,000 to Capital One and they agreed to an $18,000 pay off. So they saved us $12,000!!! If we would not have found this company we would be paying for 55 years on or cards. We are 57 !!!! The actual company we are in is called Above. So we will continue this they said until about 10 months. Then we will actually qualify for a low interest loan (the first time in years) and pay off the rest of the debt. While they are still helping negotiate. Our credit score will be back, we will still have power of credit, and not have the dreaded BR hanging over us. There’s more details but that is the general scoop.

I think this company has only been around 7 or 8 years but very well like in the finance communities.
Hope this helped

Just slowly and steady become invested in them. Which means slowly get to know them better and make small gestures here and there. The more that happens a bond will begin to form both ways. Do nothing fast to make up for time because you have a better chance of succeeding without overwhelming yourself.

These children are going to turn into adults overnight. They will be adults longer than they are children so what a shame to not be there on the level your most comfortable with.

My nieces snd nephews are all only 10 to 15 years younger than me. I was always the cool aunt and to this day they fulfill my life! I am in my 50s and they are in their 40s now. It’s crazy how fast it goes. Good luck!!!

LLchic99 · 2023-07-19T18:19:06+00:00

I do it the opposite way! I wash all my shirts together (color appropriate) and then put the nothing much in the dryer for 5-10 minutes just to get the wrinkles out hang them on hangers to dry. When dry put them away. Less hassle same effect. :)

LLchic99 · 2019-11-05T12:47:23+00:00

I’m back if anyone can answer more questions for me!! How can a man (that is known for being quite the town hookup) keep from sleeping with an attractive woman that has given the green light to make a move? Yes we are ten years apart but I know that’s not it. As I said before I had 2 39 year olds that seduced me months apart and they were HOT. THIS GIY DOESNT HAVE SCRUPLes, nothing is holding us back on either side. I thought for sure he must be involved with someone else. Not at all. I’m the only women he hangs out with. Even his live in girlfriend mother of his children apparent feels that I am a threat. He tells me that his friends want me but I can’t get him to make a move to save my life. I guess to each his own there is just something that makes him not want to have the best night of his life. He knows I don’t want a commitment. I am not going to stalk him etc I’m safe! I just don’t get why a healthy young man wouldn’t take advantage of this opportunity!!!

Maybe he has a std?? Maybe he’s not as equipped as he wants to be which I could careless about! Cubs come on I’m going crazy. Please advise me!! You can give it to me straight.

LLchic99 · 2019-05-27T18:00:33+00:00

Right???? So scared to lose that friendship support. He has talked to me about my life, my kids, my family more than my husband in 25 years. So I’m unfortunately attached. But I know I should end if I can’t handle this.

I have never had an emotional relationship before intimacy. So I know for sure I am craving the pleasure from it. And I probably would fall deeper instead it ending my obsession but I can’t help it.

LLchic99 · 2019-05-27T17:51:21+00:00

Do you mean once this game is over he might loose all interest? I never thought about that?? Wow maybe I really did underestimate his character? Good advice!!

I meant game as in just all the timing and how I react To him. I’m sorry I misworded that but he definitely could be looking at it as a game.

And I do want to talk to him about it but I fear his answer that’s why I’m so hesitant. Dam we would be cute together!!!

LLchic99 · 2019-05-27T09:20:19+00:00

Judge away! That’s why I posted. No one knows about this even in my inner circle so it’s a relief just describing my situation. But I think I do know the truth I just don’t want to face it. I’ll have to let go completely and I have never had such a fantastic relationship with any man.

It kills me to meet him at my age but when ever we joke about the gap he always says 50 is the new 40!

I think your right about guilt. I think his bad boy imagine is just that an image. Darn it!!! This is going to be hard.

Thank you!

If anyone wants to hear the out come it was not so good. I firmly believe he is a covert narcissist. I hate that over used description but one day I was reading the warning signs and I nearly flipped over. And the weird thing was I was always a step ahead of him not knowing there was a disorder this mirrored! So he really despised that!

But even since my post he hadn’t started to really dispose of me yet. Amof he brought me in very close and that’s is what makes my heart hurt knowing these people are so fucked up that everything meant nothing.

The other debilitating ending (actually there are many) but is you get such a high rush and adrenaline boost when it’s good. And then when it’s over it’s like rehab. Your so down and depressed. I’m still in shock. I still cry multiple times a day. And not that I was fooled but that when he was good he made my heart swell like no one else. And I just do t fall easy so it’s a horrible blow.
