The survey is done!

Glad everything worked out for you Tink.

Thanks ladies I'm VERY relieved to have this much done.
The dw stopped in to tell me that she plans to sign a quit claim to give the land to the dh... so it looks like we may be dealing with him soon. I seriously doubt he will be able to come up with the cash to do a survey or hire a lawyer to take us to court to contest it. If he did, he'd have to prove that the line is incorrect, which is highly unlikely since it was a GPS survey.
She said he'll be in jail at least the rest of the week, so for now I can relax.

I'm amazed at how much land we gained between what we discovered to be ours on the one side and what we're getting from the amish family on the other side. I think we're going to need a riding mower in the near future.

Tink,

That is great news! Your guardian angels were with you, putting that creep in jail at just the right time.

Now, you can get on with your life on your beautiful land.

Can you get what the Amish couple agreed to in writing. I know I watch too much of The People's Court, but I just do and all of her cases are from people who have verbal agreements.

[Tink]

Judy, we're not only getting it in writing, we're registering it at the courthouse for their protection as well as ours. It will become part of their and our land deeds. They'd been wanting to do this for a couple of years and the woman we're buying the place from refused to respond to their requests. So they're as happy about doing this as we are!

Judge Milian is so happy!!!!

Seriously, this is wonderful - Don't you love when the good guys come out ahead?

OMG
The woman leaving our meth-head neighbor called me a bit ago asking me to have her soon-to-be EX dh's friend contact her today because she's found a house they can rent "together". The friend had been living there for over a year with them. So not only is she leaving him, but his best friend is leaving him WITH her.

I dread to think how he's going to react when he gets out of jail to find them both gone and us having staked claim to a sizeable piece of what he considers to be HIS lawn!

I think it's gonna be a lot to handle for a guy who's known to have anger, drug, alcohol and depression issues. Anyone have a empty spare room I could use for a couple weeks? LOL I don't think I want to witness his reaction.
