Irony

The legal bills from Jim’s lawsuit have forced us to put the old farmhouse up for sale. We’ve moved into my father-in-law’s house.  It’s a bit of adjustment. Andy’s place is much smaller than the farmhouse.  We’re living much closer together now, but that’s okay.

There is an interesting bit of irony in this.  Andy’s house is located next door to the lot Jim plans to retire on.  That means that, thanks to Jim’s own actions, we’re going to be neighbors for the rest of our lives.

He sure he didn’t intend it that way. Jim sued Andy a few years ago in an attempt to put him out of his house.  He dropped that lawsuit but I fully expect him to file another. You can never really be safe from vindictive lawsuits, and we’re a ripe target for an opportunistic law firm.  The farm makes a tempting prize, but we don’t have the money to defend it from predatory lawyers. Jim knows that, and he’s already shown he’s not above exploiting the situation.

As much as I would love to have this whole sordid mess behind us, I’m sure it isn’t over yet. Jim does not want us here, and he’ll do whatever he can to get rid of us. He’d like nothing better than to put me out on the street with nothing, and he’d happily put my whole family out on the street too.
