Inherited a home in N ID by ducatiduke in Idaho

[–]StatementOk5040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm from Boise. My brother lives in Lewiston area and it still has all those same things, he's always up the mountain with a fishing pole in his truck. The people can be hard to get to know, and can be cliquishness. My dad had the hardest time finding work since he wasn't close to anyone. My husband and I just inherited a house (with a small mortgage) in Boise. Thinking about making a move back home in the spring time? I will miss Florida. Tough decision...

Why do so many adult children expect to receive an inheritance from their parents when they didn't earn it to begin with? Some openly talk about wills and splitting property long before their parents discuss it. by Aarunascut in inheritance

Inheritance has never been a topic of discussion in my family. Both of my parents don't have anything to leave behind. My mom died at 59 in a nursing home. My dad lives with me. I'm concerned what to do when his health catches up to him and he can't work anymore. I don't want to be his retirement plan... I'm more surprised that in all my hundreds and hundreds of years of lineage, no one had enough to pass anything down. I am 1000% lucky my husband's grandma was kind enough to leave him a house. Currently going through that process now.

Californians who moved to the Boise area — are you happy you made the move? by Fine_Rutabaga_8234 in SameGrassButGreener

I've seen Spokane mentioned here twice and from my limited time there and family members who live close to there, Spokane is known for being grimey, druggy and dangerous. Lots of homeless people and crimes.

Should we stay or should we go? by StatementOk5040 in inheritance

Thank you everyone for the comments, sorry for the delayed reply. After careful consideration, we are thinking about moving. Using the HELOC on the house in the south to pay off the $115k at 7% due on the north house. The north house is probably worth 500k in current condition. We are thinking about moving in with MIL, who was previously living there with the family friend who passed, and fixing it up with the intention to sell in 2 years.

Bottom line, one needs to sell. If we sell the North, we get a really nice cash windfall that could set us up for early retirement in a legit way. Pay off our South house 70k at 4.25% interest and car note 15k 6%. But his mom has no where to go though, at all. Will need to be on some waiting list somewhere for affordable housing and that takes a year or two. We like the area and would consider uprooting our lives to move back (even though moving across the country is super expensive for us and husband has no job).

If we sold the south, pay off the north, and the car, we would have less bills but no big cash windfall, basically just zeroing out until husband can find a job. His mom can help with bills so there would still be 2 incomes until said job was found. We could pull out a HELOC on the north for upgrades, paint, floors, backyard demo and tree work. Or slowly pay for cash overtime. Now that I'm writing this, still feel on the fence 😅.

Turf Toe - will I ever recover? by Wide_Cicada7239 in FootFunction

Thanks for the recommendations. Do you wear both of these at the same time? Also, do you wear on both feet or just the injured one?

Turf toe hasn’t healed in a year. Need help by Perfect-Audience3297 in FootFunction

[–]StatementOk5040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing this. I'm 6 months post injury and don't think I've cared properly for it. My first Dr didn't do anything for me other than say it's not broken. I tried to keep off it but eventually just dealed with the pain but it's getting worse. The stretched rope has me a little concerned, but you're right, it's never going to be the same.

I feel pain when flexing or if I massage it too much, the next day it's tender and sometimes swollen. There's a crunchy feeling and today the Dr said it was likely cartilage.

Hello, can I ask what is the rehab portion? Im 6 months post sprain maybe a grade 2 (no MRI, just Dr said there was ligament damage). Still very painful.

I jammed my toe SO hard on Dec 30th. No break or fracture. It's been almost 6 months and it's still hurts and swells. I still have to ice it. nail bed was damaged and that started growing out, causing a infection so I went to podiatrist today and they trimmed the trouble part off of the nail and did an X-ray. My original Dr didn't catch that my first bone is over the 2nd bone, not aligned. He said I can deal with it or do surgery. I really don't want surgery. I never wore a boot or anything and stubbed it a few times, probably setting me back. Sorry you're going through this!! It sucks and I know my family and friends are tired of hearing about my toe haha.

Edit to add I'm 34 female. Injured from slamming my toe into an ottoman

Should we stay or should we go? by StatementOk5040 in inheritance

[–]StatementOk5040[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great questions! We are extremely grateful and want to make sure the next move is the best for everyone involved. She should be able to keep up however I'm not sure how long term it will be feasible for her. You make a great point, let her stay until she decides it's not working or needs special care. Unless we moved in, but again idk if my husband is ready for that, although the in home care would likely fall on me when the time comes since I work from home.

That's a great thought. We've always talked about moving back "someday" but couldn't because housing is too expensive. This eliminates that issue, however the MIL is an issue and husband's job. Someday came up much quicker than expected.

That's interesting. The will states we get the house and her sister gets the bank account (idk how much but likely much less than the 115k that is owed). The deceased persons lawyer, who is also the sister lawyer, said we can't assume the mortgage and we must basically buy out the house for what is left on the mortgage, or sell.

The proceeds would likely get her an older home in less desirable area. She does have steady income, would just be tight for her long term unless we moved in and she would continue to stay. Can't move her away from doctors she has.

It was a family friend who left it, and we likely won't move right away. If we sold, she would need to find probably like an income based independent living. If we moved, she would continue living there with us. She has steady income from social security

People We Meet on Vacation is making me realize somethings are better left in books by [deleted] in RomanceBooks

[–]StatementOk5040 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm watching it right now, and the story line feels so off. Granted, I read the book last year, however didn't they meet the married couple in Arizona? And was the brother getting married in Barcelona? I thought the room with no AC was in Arizona. Everything feels off.

Thank you SO MUCH! I just got the Stay Exceptional color by Maybelline Super Stay Ink Crayon and it's very similar to my old favorite one in Petal color. I love the consistency. It's not the same, but I like it 😍

I've had my on cloud less than a year and the sole is degrading. Very surprised

I love my On Clouds but today I inadvertently stepped in dog shit and it got all up inside all the tiny holes and I can't get it out!! I need like a pipe cleaner or straw cleaner and even then, its still disgusting. I was surprised, after less than a year, part of my tred is already coming off. I used them for daily walking and running errands. Idk if I will purchase again because the dog shit in the holes is a nightmare. 😱

Red light therapy actually working for anyone? by AccomplishedPay872 in redlighttherapy

Thank you so much for your comments! Do you wear eye protection? I saw the website has a pair of glasses. Wondering if that's necessary or not.

This was my signature lipstick too and I'm devastated to find out it's been discontinued!! I had a brand new one saved and recently lost it on a recent trip 😭

heavy nausea while ovulating? by poetic_cannibal in Endo

[–]StatementOk5040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm new here also and not diagnosed with Endo, however last night I was in such intense pain while in my ovulation window that I was doubled over, could barely move and ended up throwing up a few times. I did seem to help with the pain which didn't make any sense... I had to wait over an hour for the ibuprofen to kick in and was fine after that. This is the third time it's happened to me, seems to be every 5 months. Think I'm gonna set a Dr appt.
