**I need to know what to do about this stituation, and Im i going to still have to pay?** Short answer if all things add up, no. **I sent in the form stating i sold my car** That puts you in the clear. **Im thinking the Dmv never recieved the paper.** Think again, if they haven't sent you another registration form since, they got it. Simple enough to confirm. Call them up and ask. Untill a new owner transfers title, DMV can't update their info any further so your name is still the last listed owner. When they got your form, they flagged it noting you no longer have the vehicle. That does not remove your name from the list. With any proof at all that you sold the vehicle, you don't owe anything. The towing company can sell the car to recover their alledged loss. It can be retitled via the 'lost title' process. That will require a signature from you . That's about it. The only risk to you as the last listed owner would be if some d*ck head alledges they were injured in an accident with this car. They may sue you because you're the one they can find. Waste of time on their part if you notified DMV. That might require you hire a lawyer to make sure all the paper work they throw at you is processed properly. That would be as far as it goes. Been there, done that.

My 'mental closet' is so cluttered, the door won't stay closed! I truly wish I could sweep some of those messes into a big trash truck and watch it roll away! Lilo, you always seem so organized and thoughtful, if you admit to clutter in your mental closet, maybe there's hope for me, yet.

It sounds like a nice house! Your dilemma is interesting to me since we also bought a fixer upper (for a retirement project)! Our house has 4" solid rustic maple through the main floor. We had it re-finished and it is very pretty. BUT, I often wish we had used wall to wall carpeting in some of the rooms. I find the hardwood to be somewhat colder (even with large area rugs), not as quiet, and more involved cleaning! I'm not clear on your meaning of this: I just replaced the carpet in the living room, sunroom, office, and the 1st floor master. I'm satisfied with having carpet in the master bedroom & office. Do you only have carpet in two rooms now? I think that would be fine. As far as the hardwood issue, it would seem the installer tried to cut corners on the subfloor prep. He either doesn't know how, or doesn't want to do the job you hired him for. Or he's hoping you will eventually give up. If the floor is "bouncy", it's only a matter of time until the new nails work their way loose. Put it in writing that he has one more opportunity to completely redo the floor, whatever that requires, or you will hire someone else at his expense to do it right.

I agree Kate! I bought myself one several years ago, liked it so much I bought my daughter and daughter in law each one. I found it very helpful when filling bags with frozen blueberries.
