CHARLOTTE -- The summer break means intern season for businesses across the country and late Wednesday afternoon, two large Charlotte banks found a more creative use for the extra labor.
Teams of Wells Fargo and Bank of America interns battled it out in the banks' "Clash of the Interns" charity dodgeball tournament.
One intern said that the tournament provided a fun way to give back.
"This is a great way to bring the community together especially across the two banks, the two biggest banks in Charlotte. And, so, to be able to come out here and do something really fun for children that are in need because, homelessness is a problem in Charlotte so it's good to do something, especially where we can all have fun doing it," said Wells Fargo intern Abby Harrill. Teams of six to eight interns paid $40 to enter the tournament. Proceeds went to benefit A Child's Place, a charity that works to support homeless children in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School System.

If you're looking for a charming, comfortable, "home away from home" try, The Moss House in Washington, NC. Beckie, Scott and "Bella" will welcome you and help you find your way around their charming town on the Pamlico River. A good night's rest, a delicious homemade breakfast, pleasant conversation…..exactly what we were looking for in a B & B. Thanks, Sipprells!

Hubs and I went back to The Moss House recently. My review, nor the stars have changed, but sometimes when I am looking through reviews of other places, I like to read the most recent in case things have changed a bit. Well, nothing has changed, except maybe it is better, although I am unsure how that is possible. Becky is truly one of the most gracious hostesses ever! Each room is just as welcoming and warm for your arrival. Your name awaits you on the door, and a piece of chocolate is calling your name from the nightstand beside the bed. Water, and other beverages are in the fridge in the foyer/hallway upstairs outside of the rooms, with any extra amenities you may want to use, such as when you forget your toothpaste, or if you want to use the iron, etc. We went in December so the house was so eloquently decorated for Christmas. Becky always accommodates any special needs or requests for breakfast, such as nut allergies and hubs and I being vegetarian since the last time I frequented the Moss House. Becky is also always equipped with local restaurant recommendations, as well as fun things to do in the area. A little extra thing that I love, The Moss House has it's own little soap in the bathroom. They leave you a little bag to take the soap that remains home with you, so (1), you are not wasting soap by leaving it and it getting thrown away, and (2) You can enjoy the herbal soap at home, because it truly smells amazing! We've now stayed in all of the rooms available and I truly love each room. I wouldn't hesitate to stay in any of them as they are all wonderfully accommodating and cozy!

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Moss House. We enjoyed the decor, cleanliness and hospitality. We will be back again!
5 en agosto 05, 2013
What a fabulous place to stay! Convenient to downtown which includes the waterfront, shopping and dining. Beckie and Scott are true southern hospitality geniuses as they think of absolutely everything and have it conveniently located near your room on the off chance you need it. They provided snacks, a small fridge filled with water and sodas if you required one or all. Beckie's delicious breakfast was to die for! We highly recommend staying at the Moss House if you are ever close to Washington, NC. We will be back for sure!
5 en mayo 16, 2013
We were in March 2013 at the Moss House for almost 3 weeks and it was wonderful. Already the warm welcome by our name with chalk on the small table at the entrance, let us imagine how happy one is seen here as a guest. For Beckie it is not "just a job". She does everything very carefully, professionally and with class. This begins with the receipt and shows up every day with the varied and very special (for us Germans) an delissious breakfast, room design, the little touches and beautiful souvenirs. Scott makes sure that everything is running, even if Beckie times prevented. For us German it's probably especially nice to stay in such a lovely decorated Confederate House. Because sometimes you forget your own job and feels the loving dealings almost like home. Thank you and hope to see you soon. Wir waren im März 2013 im Moss House für knappe 3 Wochen und es war ganz wunderbar. Bereits das herzliche Welcome per Kreide mit unserem Namen an der kleinen Tafel vor dem Eingang, ließ uns erahnen, wie gern man als Gast hier gesehen ist. Für Beckie ist es nicht einfach nur ein Job. Sie macht alles ganz liebevoll, professionell und mit Klasse. Das beginnt schon mit dem Empfang und zeigt sich täglich mit dem abwechslungsreichen und ganz speziellen Frühstück, der Zimmergestaltung, den kleinen Aufmerksamkeiten und schönen Souvenirs. Scott sorgt dafür, dass alles läuft, selbst wenn Beckie mal verhindert ist. Für uns Deutsche ist es vermutlich besonders schön, in einem so liebevoll eingerichteten Südstaatenhaus zu verweilen. Da vergisst man auch mal den eigenen Job und fühlt sich durch den liebevollen Umgang fast wie zu Hause. Vielen Dank und hoffentlich bis bald.

We met friends for lunch in Washington and attended a concert in the evening at the Tar Heel Variety Theater in Chocowinity. The Moss House provided the perfect venue for a wonderful visit to this part of North Carolina. The rooms are beautifully decorated, but not to the point of making one feel uncomfortable. The bedrooms are particularly spacious, and the common areas are very welcoming. Breakfast was delicious, and we had the perfect amount of attention from our hosts who made sure we had what we needed but were not the least intrusive. The best part was the personal attention we received from Rebecca prior to our visit, who helped us coordinate our plans with our friends. It just could not have been nicer. We will hope to return someday!

Very accomodating and welcoming. Breakfast was a real treat. Insist her 93 year old mother is there to entertain you while eating. Very interesting history of the house and area. Great views just a block away Antique shops are full and just down the street. Wait 'til you see the sun setting over the river during your downtown walk. Can't wait to go back.

My husband and I (mid 30's) have stayed at many B&B's over the years and this one ranks among our very favorites. Becky and Scott were above and beyond accommodating to our late arrival needs and we thoroughly enjoyed our talks with them in the mornings. Breakfasts were delicious and they graciously accommodated my husband's protein diet. We stayed in the Estuary, a nicely appointed room with a separate bath. The bathroom had additional small tables which I found quite helpful in getting ready in the mornings - I find most B&Bs fail to provide sufficent table space. We would definitely recommend The Moss House for a great B&B experience!

My wife and I were in Washington for a wedding and decided to stay at the Moss House, and it was a great choice. Breakfast each morning was fabulous, and Rebecca and Scott were incredibly informative as they gave us advice on places to explore in Washington while we were there. The house is walking distance from the beautiful Pamlico River and downtown Washington. What an incredible value!
5 en junio 20, 2012
My wife and I stayed three nights recently and were very pleased with The Moss House and Becky and Scott. It's a great location within walking distance of shops and restaurants, and of course the beautiful Pamlico River. We plan to go back there in the Fall.
5 en junio 14, 2012
The Pamlico-Tar River Suite was the perfect retreat for the reunion of 4 good friends. The "Carolina Girls" love to tour N.C. and look for the best in B&B's. Moss House will always be one of our favorites. Becki and Scott are like new best friends, yet they knew when to pull back and let us have "girl time." They provided wonderful ideas of how to enjoy the area, and helped us plan a surprise for our friend who came in on the last day of our stay. Becki works a special kind of magic in the kitchen, and we enjoyed a delightful, relaxing breakfast each morning. Can't wait to return to Moss House Inn!!!
5 en junio 10, 2012
My friends and I made a wonderful choice of a place to stay in Washington,NC. Our getaway took place at The Moss House Bed and Breakfast.The innkeepers, Scott and Becky couldn't have been more welcoming or accommodating. They added a nice upbeat atmosphere to an already pleasant retreat. Don't hesitate to make your reservations at The Moss House. You will sing their praises too!
5 en mayo 21, 2012
The Moss House exceeded every expectation of ambience, attention to comfort, and hospitality on my "bucket" birthday celebrated over the Easter Sunday weekend. Beckie called to confirm my reservation and to inquire about any dietary restrictions. Her delectable gourmet breakfasts were accompanied by specialty "Moss House" coffee. And, there were Moss House coffee mugs, homemade soaps unique handmade gifts available. Scott and Beckie are environmentally sensitive, without the "soapbox "stand. Downtown "Little Washington" was steps 189 away, and returning from it, the Moss House garden invited and delighted. The Moss House decor artfully incorporates original historical objects and family memorabilia of the innkeepers. I borrowed from their eclectic library offerings and indulged in 1940's drawing lessons. While I enjoyed meeting other guests, I appreciated the option of taking breakfast in my room. I felt like an honored guest. My only regret was that I didn't have more time to savor the Moss House experience.
5 en mayo 06, 2012
The Moss House is such a gem! Becki and Tim are wonderful hosts who take excellent care of their guests. We so enjoyed both porches, the swing and the fabulous breakfast. Every detail is thought of to make for an excellent stay from high quality linens, beautiful furnishings, chocolates and bottled water.
5 en mayo 03, 2012
Stayed here for our first anniversary celebration and can only leave positive feedback. The hosts were friendly and accommodating (even made a point to cater to our special breakfast requests), but at the same time unassuming and respectful of our privacy. The house was charming and comfortable. If you have a reason to be in Washington, NC, this is a great place to stay!
5 en abril 22, 2012
We recently stayed at the Moss House B&B for a weekend in Washington, NC when we attended a NC bike ride event. We had stayed with the innkeepers, Becky and Scott before, and wanted to return to their lovely home and gardens again. Our room and private bath were very comfortable . A small refrigerator in the hallway provides bottled water and drinks. Snacks, local information and restaurant rccomendations are generously offered. The Moss House is a short, pleasant walk from downtown Washington's lovely waterfront and shops. One of our favorite things to do was to relax on one of the Moss House porches overloking the beautiful garden. Becky's breakfasts are simly amazing (her fruit cups and lemon poppyseed crumb cake are delicious). On this trip we had the added treat of meeting Becky and Scott's young granddaughter who helped served breakfast ....we felt right at home! The main reason we will return to the Moss House is because Becky and Scott offer a wonderful place to stay with their generous hospitality and lovely accommodations. We look forward to staying with them again on our next trip.

We stayed at the Moss House while helping our daughter with a new baby. We loved the room, the food, and the company at breakfast. The food each day was delicious and healthy and started each day off wonderfully. We hope to stay again and would highly recommend it to anyone.
5 en febrero 06, 2012
I visited The Moss House recently while in Washington for business travel and thought that it would be nice to stay at a B&B rather than a stuffy hotel. I was right, of course, choosing The Moss House was a great idea! Becky, one of the owners was gracious and welcoming to me from the start, along with their dog, Bella. Becky helped me to my room, The Estuary, and gave me recommendations for dinner. I had a lot of work to do and their wifi worked beautifully! That is always a fear of mine, especially when staying in hotels, sometimes their wifi works and sometimes it doesn't. The room was roomy, with a private bath, including anything I may need from toiletries to a sound machine in case I need that sort of thing for sleeping. The area of Washington, and almost all of Washington, is peaceful and quiet so it made for a wonderful night's sleep. The Moss House is a block from the river so it is walking distance to everything, including little boutiques and restarurants. For breakfast, Becky offered to accomodate my time since I was heading out for business meetings. She had coffee ready for me and breakfast started with a fruit bowl that was literally, the best fruit bowl I have ever had!! It was fresh,tangy, and oh so yummy! Next, was pumpkin spice bread, orange juice, and then came the omelette with toast. I was so full when I left that morning that I wasn't even ready for lunch when midday came. Before I left, I booked more of my future stays with Becky and am looking forward to continuing my relationship with this house while working in the area. I'm also looking forward to bringing the hubs down for an early start to the beach season!
5 en enero 07, 2012
We have stayed here several times. The innkeepers are very gracious and willing to partake in friendly conversations but are unobtrusive. They have forgotten nothing in providing whatever is needed to make our stay comfortable and relaxing, including a white noise machine (it is a quiet area, but some like the white noise anyway)and bathrobes. The breakfasts are always delicious, the beds very comfortable, and rooms tastefully decorated. Various drinks are available just outside the rooms along with abundant reading material of various types. We have met many wonderful guests at the dining table, of all ages and backgrounds. Staying there has always been an exceedingly possitive experience.

The Moss House is charming. The hostess, Becky, was very accommodating about my quirky eating requirements and prepared delicious and nutritious breakfasts while I was there. The coffee is also really good - strong, but smooth and flavorful. Another plus - Becky makes an effort to be "green" - for example, recycling is available and she uses biodergadable trash bags.
5 en enero 01, 2012
We stole away after a hectic holiday and had a wonderful time staying at the Moss House. The Bed and Breakfast was beautifully decorated for the holidays. Scott and Becky are terrific hosts and helped us find Pungo Lake to see the Tundra Swans. Becky should have her own Food Network special on B & B breakfasts. Yumm! Becky also asked us for any special dietary concerns we may have had. The location is perfect for evening strolls along the water and access to shopping and dining in Washington. We stayed three nights and felt right at home.

We love the Moss House!! We have stayed there many times and we are always happy with the inn, the wonderful breakfasts, and the friendliness of Becky and Scott. Our son and his wife were with us this weekend and they loved it. Look forward to our next visit.

I love staying at The Moss House when I come to Little Washington! Becky and Scott are the greatest innkeepers, and breakfasts are delicious!! The location is perfect, being within walking distance to downtown and the waterfront. I always like to walk along the waterfront when I stay there. I highly recommend this B&B!!

Our accommodations in the "Anchorage Room" had a rich elegant feeling. It was a good size room with plenty of sitting area. The sitting area had a table and chairs. The bed was very comfortable and the room was decorated with transitional flair. Their added touches can be seen throughout the room; bathrobes, organic soaps, etc. The breakfasts that were prepared by Becky were unbelievable. The food was prepared with fresh herbs,and served with an unbelievable presentation. We were so delighted when Scott her husband, was able to join us and share with us some history about the house. Scott and Becky, thank you for a wonderful stay. Lee and Pat Partridge Kitty Hawk, NC

I highly recommend the Moss House. We have been taking sailing lessons at the East Carolina Sailing School, right down the street from the Moss House, and have had the opportunity to stay with Beckie and Scott several times. Their home is lovely, the gardens are tended with care, and their home is filled with lots of extra details you would want in a B&B. The service is impeccable, they serve breakfast to fit our schedule and they are a wealth of knowledge that will help you navigate the best spots in the area.
5 en octubre 18, 2011
Moss House was a delight and we were very happy to find it. Becky and Scott are excellent hosts and everything about the room, the conversation and most especially, the coffee and breakfast surpassed our expectations. If we're ever near Washington, NC, again we will be sure to return.

This was our 2nd stay at the Moss House and as usual it was wonderful.. My wife and I started returning to the Outer Banks for our summer vacation and a stay at the Moss House has become part of our yearly adventure! We love this place! Beckie and Scott are the perfect hosts and the house is quiet,clean and beautiful. There is lots of history here! We look forward to our walks along the river and a visit to Backwater Jacks for beers, music and a bite to eat.. Breakfast is always amazing and it's always fun meeting new people and hearing their stories...Little Washington is such a neat little town. It's always the perfect start to our trip to Nags Head! Thank you Beckie and Scott for making this leg of our trip so enjoyable! We look forward to seeing you next year! Cheers, B and T

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Moss House--from the moment we arrived and were warmly welcomed by Becky, to the time of our departure. The accommodations couldn't have been better--beautifully decorated and clean home, comfortable bed, and many extras. Delicious breakfasts were served--loved the homemade blueberry muffins and the great coffee. Scott and Becky, our friendly, helpful and wonderful hosts, made us feel right at home. We look forward to more stays with them in the future. Paulie and Bob

We spent two nights at the Moss House which is just a nice walk to downtown Washington and the river front. We used the B&B as our starting point to visit friends in Bath and to visit Oriental. The Moss House was both quiet and comfortable and we enjoyed meeting Beckie, Scott and Bella. We needed more face time with Bella...what a sweet dog. Breakfast was very nice and we enjoyed the yard with all the flowers and herbs. There was nothing wanted for during the stay even to the point of having wine glasses and an opener which we forgot to pack. We would definitely make a return visit. Thanks Beckie, Scott and Bella.

Everything was easy and comfortable during my stay at the Moss House. Attractive room and house, charming friendly owner, quiet peaceful atmosphere, and the wifi worked. Breakfast was home made and delicious, and the owner even accommodated my very early start time. All in all, a great stay. I will definitely come back and stay again.

This was our 2nd annual visit to "Little Washington" as it is known, to ride a "century" (100 miles) on our bicycles. We stayed at Moss House both times for a truly delightful trip. The house itself is warm and comfortable, exuding the charm of graceful days gone by. Most importantly, the hosts, Beckie and Scott, are the epitome of graciousness and friendliness. They steered us to a fabulous restaurant called Pia's, and got up extra early to make us some of the best breakfasts we have ever had. After all, they powered us for over 100 miles of the scenic Inner Banks, but tasted ever so much better than energy bars--ha!ha! And then that relaxing bed in which we crashed for a nap after the ride! All this add's up to a great weekend we plan to repeat ad lib!--JP & TD

Beckie & Scott were like a beacon in the night after plans to stay at another location in eastern NC fell through on our 30th anniversary trip. At the last minute they stepped in and bailed us out ! The house is beautiful, our room was wonderful and the accomodations could not have been any better. The food was excellent and they are wonderful hosts. We will be back !! David & Darlene Deaton

We stayed at the Moss House Inn as an alternative to one of the chain hotels in the Washington area. This was our first stay at a B&B, and we absolutely loved it! The owners (Scott and Beckie) were very accommodating and welcoming, and the room (and entire house) was very nicely decorated and comfortable. We stayed there for two nights, and the breakfast both mornings was delicious! This B&B is within a short walk to the neat river walk and unique downtown shops. We had a wonderful time, and hope to stay here again!

Had a great time at the Moss House. Becky and Scott were VERY friendly hosts and the house was great. Bed was comfortable and the room was very spacious. Breakfast was delicious and more then we could eat. There were multiple courses, including wonderful French Toast. Thanks for a good time.

Excellent B&B, great hosts, great food, we have been coming here for ten (10) years, never a problem.

We found this jewel on the internet and decided it would be the first place to stay on our "tour" of North Carolina. We prefer to stay at B&Bs and this one was perfect. Our short visit was great! Becky and Scott are superb tour guides and restaurant reviewers, everything is a short walking distance away. We had a wonderful evening meal at Pia's and ended the evening with a glass of wine sitting on the swing on the fabulous front porch. What an end to a long day!! One of the best things was the breakfast the next morning. Becky must have ESP. I love French toast and that's exactly what we had - yum. We had a wonderful visit and then our time was up and we had to get on our way. The Moss House will be one of our favorite spots on our visits to North Carolina. Beautiful people, accommodations, ambience and Bella is the hostess extraordinary.

Becky and Scott are great and so is their B&B down in Washington, NC. I plan to stay at their B&B again my next visit down that way. Tim

We had an incredible stay at The Moss House. The accomodations were incredibly comfortable, one of the best night's sleep ever. Becky and Scott were wonderful hosts. The breakfast left nothing to be desired - their special blend of coffee topped off our morning!

We live in nearby Greenville but just wanted to get away for the weekend. Our daughter actually found the Moss House online and booked it for us. We arrived late but the key was in an envelope at the back door. Our room was warm and inviting and huge. Slept wonderfully and got up for a leisurely breakfast. We met Scott and Becky at breakfast but also two great couples, father and daughter, who had just attended the daughter's art exhibit. You meet such wonderful people at B&B's. Moss House is lovely and only a short walk from historic downtown. Becky and Scott are just like family. Highly recommend it! Geoffrey Norwood

Becky and Scott made our stay at The Moss House very memorable. They went out of their way to please us. For example, because we had to leave early one morning, they served us breakfast at 7:00 a.m., even though the usual time for breakfast was 8:30 a.m. We really appreciated their being so accommodating to us. The Moss House is very pretty and quaint, and the extras were vey welcome. We would recommend staying at the Moss House to anyone who wants to experience a wonderful B&B.
5 en marzo 06, 2011
Beckie and Scott (and the lovely dog Bella) are perfect hosts for anyone visiting the lovely waterfront town of Washington. The Inn is wonderful - beautiful old home, lovely high ceilings and woodwork, all the atmosphere of an older home but with luxury modern amenities like great showers, cozy beds, and even "upscale" things like bathrobes. Breakfast was fabulous - generous and creative ciabatta benedicts accompanied by fresh fruit salads and lovely coffee cake. I'd strongly recommend this Inn to any of my friends traveling in that area.
5 en febrero 24, 2011
The service was above and beyond what was expected. The room was very well appointed and the location was just fine. We enjoyed walking around the area and being in walking distance to some very nice restaurants. Our hosts made excellent suggestions as to where we might like to sight see. They were very friendly and made us feel more than welcome. It was almost like visiting family. We hope to return.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our recent visit to The Moss House. Although the winter temps were a little below NC normal the warmth of the hospitality made up for that.

Beckie and Scott were consummate hosts -- friendly, welcoming, offering helpful advice on things to do and see, where to dine out. Moss House has a wonderful, homey feel. Definitely a place to stay!

We had a wonderful stay at the Moss House! The accommodations are beautiful and the innkeepers were wonderful. Food was fabulous! Every detail was thought of! We stayed after performing a show here and it was truly a pleasure. We all want to bring our families back and explore the area more!

The ideal B&B stay: comfortable, beautifully appointed but not at all fussy. Beckie and Scott and just delightful. The location couldn't be better. We will definitely return.

Great location. Hosts helpful but not intrusive. Great food, a quiet and lovely place. Don't usually stay in B&Bs but I would go back in a flash.

We were visiting family in the area but wanted to have a relaxing retreat nearby. Our stay was wonderful! Plenty of privacy but also very friendly and accomodating. We walked downtown for a delicious meal and returned to relax in our very comfy room. A great night's sleep followed by a delicious breakfast. We will recommend this to other friends and family and will definitely stay again!

We recommend the Moss House for a clean, comfortable and friendly stay. The breakfast is wonderful, too, something to look forward to! Beckie, Scott, and thier sweet dog, Bella, are perfect hosts who make you feel right at home. Bob and Kelly Loughlin, Greensboro, N.C.

Knew little about the area and found the Moss House on the web. Becky and Scott know how to make you feel like old friends without being intrusive. The entire experience was perfect. I use B&Bs a lot and this is by far one of the best. The room was great, the bed exceptionally comfortable and the wonderful breakfast kept me going all through the business day. Will be a repeat visitor.

The Moss House was a pleasant surprise of comfort and welcome. Our room was comfortable, spacious, and had modern amenities. Clean to the core! Unexpected treats like cozy bathrobes, cold drinks, and night chocolates. Breakfast was a delightful experience of fine-cooked food and good conversation. Plan on a repeat visit!

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Moss House for a two nights over the Labor Day holiday weekend (2010). Becky and Scott could not have been more accomodating (as I had to alter plans for Hurricane Earl), and the room we stayed in was just wonderful. We felt like we were at home, or even better than at home! Everything was very clean and orderly, and they even have water/soda for the guests free of charge. Breakfast was delicious! I would recommend visiting Little Washington!

My boyfriend and I, both 25, were looking for a nice get-away to celebrate our 1-year anniversary. We narrowed our choices down to The Hilton and The Moss House. We made the right choice. We decided to stay at The Moss House because of the personalized service and overall experience that is advertised through the website. I must say, the website is spot-on. The service was impeccable. We were greeted upon arrival (even though we were very late) and graciously welcomed into the house. We were given a brief tour of the house and our room. We were also invited to peruse the books and games and offered complimentary soda & water. When asked about local restaurants, Beckie & Scott took the time to tell us about the local favorites, as well as give detailed directions and overall impressions. Service. In the Moss House, we were not only provided several shampoos, conditioners, wash clothes, and towels (for only a one-night stay!) but also luxurious robes, make-up removal towels, breath mints, and an assortment of other goodies. Not to mention the chocolates on our nightstand. Our room was nicely decorated, very cozy and warm, and extremely clean. The bed was luxurious and provided an amazing night's sleep. It had nice comfortable sheets & TONS of pillows, with a ceiling fan overhead. The breakfast was amazing. We were served an assortment of juices, tea, & coffee. The breakfast was a 4-course gourmet meal ranging from buttermilk orange pancakes w/ tropical fruit salsa to freshly baked orange scones & fruit-topped greek yogurt. Delicious! Beckie even let me take home the leftover scones! Overall, our stay at The Moss house was outstanding! It was everything we were looking for and more. The room-rates are well-beyond fair. The house is beautiful, comfortable, and elegant. Perhaps best of all, the owners of The Moss House are delightful, friendly, funny, and excellent hosts. Whether you're considering a hotel or a bed-and-breakfast: this is the right choice!

I came to Washington to participate in the 2010 Washington Internation Triathlon. A while ago I found that staying in a local B&B was so much better for me on race day that I now always look for one when booking a room. The Moss House was GREAT! Better than great. They went out of their way in making me comfortable. When asked what might help me in preparation for the race I came back with several quite quirky answers; floor fan and/or a white noise machine, ceiling fan, VERY early coffee on race morning as well as a special early morning snack (english muffins with peanut butter and honey), and finally a somewhat late checkout so that I didn't have to pack up to leave before I even went to the race. Sure enough all of these requests were met! It could not have been a better experience. The bed was perfect, sheets crisp and clean, the house had central air (a must in Eastern NC in the middle of summer) and the bathroom was well appointed. I slept great and then had a great race winning my age group! The biggest surprise came upon my return to the house - waiting on me was a full breakfast (long past the original one given to the other guests of The Moss House)! The works! What a way to finish the morning. With another Triathlon in October and again next summer you can be sure that I will be staying at The Moss House B&B!!!! HH - Raleigh, NC

Came to town on business for one night and was looking for a special place to stay within walking distance from downtown restaurants and the waterfront. The Moss House is the perfect place. I was charmed from the moment I called Beckie to check on availability and completely at home the second I walked into my room. To top it off, Beckie asked me what I wanted for breakfast and when. I answerd with "eggs and fruit" and "it may be early". When I came downstairs at 6:30, fresh mango, melon and blueberries with a touch of mint awaited me, followed by the best scambled eggs I've ever had served with a slice of garden grown tomato and roasted red peppers. "Outstanding" is an understatement. I will never stay anywhere else when I visit little Washington. Thank you for making an average night extraordinary.

The Moss House has an excellent location for visiting Washington and it's surroundings. Beckie and Scott have make their place so cozy. Some of my siblings joined me in staying there. We all commented that we felt like it was home. They served a nice breakfast each morning . Great place to stay!

From the minute we met Becky and Scott Sipprell, we felt like honored guests in their lovely home. The beautifully appointed guest room was so very relaxing, with all the amenities one could desire. The king-sized bed was so comfortable. The two meals we had with them were truly of gourmet quality.
4,6 en julio 12, 2010
My wife and I used the Moss House as a personal get-away for just the two of us, and we had a great time! Beckie was so helpful and accommodating, ready to meet whatever request we had. The house was lovely, and our room was very comfortable. It was walking distance to the quaint downtown and waterfront, as well as many restaurants. And the breakfast was delicious...and healthy, too (lots of fruit and veggies)! Definitely a great find in an unexpected place.

What a welcoming B&B - the owners were very friendly - location so close to town - excellent facilities and wonderful breakfast.

Beckie & Scott, innkeepers at The Moss House, created the perfect stay for us. A chalkboard on the door to our room (the Anchorage Room) welcomed us by name, complimentary water and sodas were provided in the room and in the common areas, and other thoughtful details included Dove chocolates on the bedside table, comfy robes, luxurious towels, and specially made soaps. The house is beautiful and very comfortable - just like being home. Highly recommend!!

This review is late in appearance. My wife and I stayed here for a night in late October, 2009. We we on an "ad lib" road trip thru NC from NJ and at the last minute decided to call the Moss House, which we had seen on an earlier drive thru Washington. They cheerfully accommodated our request. I do not typically "gush" over details in reviews. I expect good facilities and service for my money, and so you will note that not every category is outstanding. However, I certainly recommend this place. Nice, knowledgeable innkeepers, very attractive and clean rooms, building with great character and quite convenient (2 minute walk) to downtown and river walk. The breakfast did not knock me out, but it was very decent. Zero complaints. A great value.

Becky made us feel so special. Our breakfasts were outstanding and would compare to our one cruise. The house was tastefully decorated and comfortable. They get a AAA rating from us!

What a great place to stay in a surprising neat little town. Downtown is within walking distance of The Moss House. After you eat the super delicious gourmet breakfast you'll need to walk it off! Becky and Scott are very helpful and friendly folks. The house and rooms are clean and bright. We loved staying there and plan to visit again. MJ Bellino, Greensboro,NC

What an exceptional week-end! Our expectations were exceeded in all areas. We found the decor to be delightful as well as comfortable throughout the house.In the Pamlico Room our king size bed was filled with an assortment of pillows and soft luxurious linens.Add a beautiful ceiling fan and you have a perfect night's sleep. Each morning's breakfast was a gourmet delight-Becky is one heck of a cook! Every detail is taken care of by Becky and Scott and we hope to return soon. Glen and Sondra Yost

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying with Becky and Scott at their lovely home, The Moss House. We stayed in the Pamlico Room, we just LOVED it. The house is spotless, I mean spotless and very tastefully decorated resembling the time era it was built. I have to say our favorite part was the delicious breakfast that we were served every morning, completely gourmet. We had fun going to the estuary and eating hot dogs at Bill's, all with in walking distance from the Moss House. We are looking forward to our next stay with Becky and Scott.

And Purdue is not Gonzaga. The Boilermakers lost to Bucknell in November and Eastern Michigan in December in non-conference play and were thumped by 23 points at Michigan State in Big Ten play this month. They nevertheless won a third straight game to improve to 10-8 and are 6-1 all-time against the Mountaineers.
"I think everything that happened to us was a result of us," Staten said. "They didn't do anything special to beat us. I think we beat ourselves."
Huggins used four guards in his starting lineup, as he hinted he might do after Wednesday's loss, but went to a big lineup after just 4:55. Matt Humphrey picked up his second foul and Terry Henderson, who might have been called upon under ordinary circumstances, was out for a second straight game with a back injury.
The score was tied 6-6 when Huggins partnered Aaric Murray with Kevin Noreen. Murray lasted three minutes before he picked up two fouls, including one on offense. Deniz Kilicli would replace Murray and Dominique Rutledge would later play with Kilicli to give Noreen a three-minute rest. In the 6:33 Huggins played a big lineup, the score went from tied to Purdue leading 25-15.
He put four guards together again with 6:32 to go. When Huggins stuck Volodymyr Gerun in with Noreen with 28.5 seconds left in the half, it was 37-23. The four-guard lineup was outscored by four points in 13:09 in the first half. The bigger lineup was outscored by 10 points in 6:51.
Huggins was a little more liberal with lineups in the second half and the results were skewed because of the score and Purdue's personnel, but WVU played with four guards the final 11 minutes after a big lineup had been outscored by seven points over about seven minutes.
Neither team did much right to start the game. WVU was 2-for-11 early and didn't make a 2-point shot until Kilicli scored on a put-back with 11:08 remaining to cut Purdue's lead to 11-9. The Boilermakers, who started 3-for-11 and 5-for-17, then hit a 16-6 run to take control. Byrd made two 3s, one of them banked in, and Purdue was 6-for-8 in the spurt.
"When you play in this kind of environment, once they hit a couple shots and get on a few rolls, the crowd gets going and it's hard to get back in," Staten said. "They made shot after shots and when you're on the road you can't give the home team any momentum."
Staten kept the Mountaineers close with three baskets in that stretch, but they managed only two other shots and committed four turnovers. The Purdue rally ended when Noreen made 1 of 2 free throws and then Staten scored again when he tipped in Gary Browne's missed layup after Brown stole a ball and raced to his basket.
That made it 27-18, but another turnover preceded Byrd's third 3 of the half and WVU would make only one more basket the 4:48. The lead was its largest at the half at 37-23 and the Mountaineers were fortunate because Staten's bad pass with seconds to go set up a Purdue fast break. Sandi Marcius missed a dunk in transition right before the buzzer.
WVU finished its non-conference schedule with a 7-6 record, the 21st straight season the non-conference mark hasbeenbetter than .500. The Mountaineer return to Big 12 play, where they are 1-3, when they play host to TCU (9-9, 0-5 Big 12) at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday on ESPN2.

Hundreds "March for Jesus" in Downtown Brundidge
In Pike County, hundreds of people are taking their message to the streets. It's the 13th year for Brundidge's March for Jesus. Participants say each time, the crowds just get larger. And this year, they say their message is more important than ever. Willie Moultrie, President of the Concerned Christians of Brundidge, said the purpose is to bring more people to the faith. "I look at the church that I go to and we used to have greater participation, people don't seem to much concerned, and the young people, we're just losing them, they're not interested, they're not concerned," he said. He says events like this, though, bring young people in droves, like 23-year-old Tristan McSwain, who's been attending since he was a child. "Christianity is the foundation, it's our belief, and we have to stand strong on it and make more of it," he said. However, some walkers say that's easier said than done, which is why they come out every year. Lynette Andrews says she thinks there should be more marches like this one across Alabama. "Everybody's afraid to represent the Lord, and they don't want everybody to see that they love the Lord, so I think it is problem," she said. For some marchers, this year, it's even more important to reach out to others. Jeffery Flowers has been going to the march for years, but he says some issues stick out this time. "The economy is in such bad shape and it's almost election time again, this is a good thing for the people here, if they can get together and just fellowship, just pray for one unity for the economy as well as for the candidates that's running for the country," he said. Organizers say the march's message isn't political, but Moultrie did say he tells the group to stay informed on what's happening. "The only thing I say is awareness. People need to be aware of what's going on," he said. Each year, the march works with community churches for a good turnout. This year, more than a dozen were there. |

NCEAS Project 2231
NSF Pollinator Decline Workshop (Hosted by NCEAS)
- James H. Cane
Activity | Dates | Further Information |
Workshop | 8th—10th October 1999 | Participant List |
Workshop to Explore Causes and Extent of Declines Among Native Invertebrate Pollinators: Detection, Evidence and Consequences
Insects, particularly native bees, are the predominant and essential pollinators of many wild and agricultural plants in North America. For many flowering plants, they move pollen between plants while foraging, thereby contributing to: 1) fruit set and size, 2) seed production and viability, and 3) seedling vigor, while 4) enhancing genetic diversity of plant populations. Is this essential ecosystem service in jeopardy? It could be if human activities are causing widespread declines in pollinator abundance, or accelerated rates of extinction. Declining abundance would soon translate into less frequent flower visitation and abrupt or gradual diminution of seed and fruit production. Depauperate pollinator faunas offer less redundancy to buffer fruit and seed set against the inevitable and sometimes chaotic population swings of individual pollinator species, with repercussions for animal species and humans dependent on regular production of those plants and their seeds/fruits for food. This 3-day workshop will have two objectives. First, we will summarize the credible evidence for long-term human influences on native pollinating insects and the fruits of their pollination services at local and global scales. Second, we will evaluate the promise and practicality of strategies for filling gaps in that knowledge through studies employing 1) extant or readily obtained data sets (short-term research) and 2) long-term monitoring of inadvertent or purposeful experiments.

Hey, George. We've been through a lot these past couple of years haven't we? You know I have been with you every step of the way in the 'War on Terror' despite the misgivings of many people in my country. I've told them repeatedly that they've got you all wrong, George. I know you're not intellectually-challenged like they keep saying you are. No, events have just made it look that way.
Many people around the world – including millions of Muslims - have witnessed what your troops did to hundreds of innocent Iraqis, including small children, in Fallujah – courtesy of al-Jazeera. Over the past couple of years we have needlessly alienated the majority of the over 1.5 billion Muslims around the world. No, you can't just bomb al-Jazeera's offices again, George. Bombing their offices for a third time might look a tad suspicious to onlookers especially when we keep saying we want to introduce freedom to Iraq.
Listen, George, I think I can see a way out of this mess that you haven't made. After 9/11, at the Labour Party conference in Brighton, I outlined a vision of a world in which the richest countries were committed to helping "The starving, the wretched, the dispossessed, the ignorant, those living in want and squalor from the deserts of northern Africa to the slums of Gaza, to the mountain ranges of Afghanistan". And I got the biggest applause when I called for Palestinians to receive "justice, the chance to prosper and in their own land".
So, George. We can make a start by ditching unilateralism and sticking to the path of multilateralism and international legality.
Let's begin with Palestine. We need to implement UN resolutions and give the Palestinians their own state. Just imagine how that would go down in the rest of the world! And I mean a real state, not a few Bantustans surrounded by the racist bully that is Israel. And if the Israelis won't go for it, then let's help create one democratic state for both the Jews and the Palestinians.
Same with Chechnya and Kashmir. Let's get Putin to honour the treaty that Yeltsin signed with the Chechens and ask the Indians to hold the plebiscite on Kashmir that the UN called for over 50 years ago.
Let's try and win more friends, George.
Iqbal Sacranie, Secretary-General, The Muslim Council of Britain

he said something that made me tilt my head to the side, a bit. He said his Ws new BFF is her 16 y/o son's GF. She's 46 or 47 and the girl is the same age as her son. That seems really off to me. I just don't know what to make of it. Any insight??
Yes,, I have several ideas on this one....The OW in our case does this regularly. SHe is 35 and makes friends with all the young girls... 1. She has to have someone to brag to.Young girls like to hear gossip, and older person would see red flags and tell someone what was going on.. 2. When the young girl tried to tell adults that she had seen the OW and my H together == which was: he was getting bj from her outside between the parked vehicles during a party at the lake-the OW and my H told this young girl, it's always going to be your word against ours and NO ONE is EVER going to believe you! 3. She wants to keep up with what everyone is saying and doing so she can get info to use against them later if they try to stand up to her: 4. She wants to keep up with what everyone suspects so she can see how close she can push the envelope before she is discovered doing whatever it is she is currently doing that is a game.....
My X loves babies, toddlers, ezrly elementary age kids. They give unconditional love (aka N supply) freely and without reservations. Basically an adult those kids love is ADORED by the kid. It turns my XH on. He is a predator of a different sort... not sexual, but needs to be adored/admired by someone and the one's who do adoration so well are the little kids.
His NW also trolls for N supply and her victim of choice is teenage girls. She likes talking fashion, hot actors, music with them. She goes on a lot of outings with her D and D's friends. And from what my kids tell me NW is way too invested in her D's relationships, including her marriage.
Then again, today is his visiting day, and I've noticed that he's not quite as jolly today since my children are tired and a little wild after five days of school vacation.
I assume that when they start to ask him some tough questions and when they decide they would rather be with their peers than their dad, he'll start drifting away from them, too. The whole splitting thing. I know it's coming someday.
Mine loves his children because they still think he's a hero, the world's greatest dad. They're also cute little kids (like ALL kids) and he gets a lot of positive attention from strangers when he's out interacting with them. They think he walks on water. He is more of a grown-up playdate than a father. Then again, today is his visiting day, and I've noticed that he's not quite as jolly today since my children are tired and a little wild after five days of school vacation. I assume that when they start to ask him some tough questions and when they decide they would rather be with their peers than their dad, he'll start drifting away from them, too. The whole splitting thing. I know it's coming someday.
THAT is my X. When the kids became older and started to have their own opinions, own social calendar, and their own lives... He went looking for another form of supply - the OW. I was busy ferrying 4 kids around to various extra curricular activities and he was becoming more and more absent.
Enter the adoring OW... and the mask started slipping at home. He started to devalue and discard me and his kids, especially the older ones who saw thru his facade and called him on it.
BUT, let the kid be recognized for honor roll, student of the month, or an athletic award and he was there to get a pat on the back for being such a good father.
He wouldn't take them to a dang thing on HIS weekends... but offer an award... he was present and accounted for.
I have to laugh because he just wrote me an email informing me that he's taking them to a big holiday event next weekend. WELL, I am getting ready to write to him and inform him that he's actually going to be taking my son to his First Reconciliation ceremony at our church. Obviously this is more important than a holiday event, NOT as fun, and will actually force him into a church.
Maybe a lightning bolt will hit him there.
Meanwhile, the guy is posting on Match.com as a divorced guy, and we have no idea where he's living anymore. OW has dumped him.
My life has GOT to get better.
D2 was his sidekick while growing up. She suffered with the lure her in and discard her game he played. She has a baby, baby daddy wants nothing to do with the kid. She is struggling to finish school, work, and be a mom. She lives with me. I help by taking care of DGD.
D1, and D2 do not like NW. I think they have more of a memory of a good and functioning family (pre them getting a life, and 2 younger siblings who adored X) that they resent NW in the picture and intervening in their relationship with X. Anyway, NW and D2 do not get along. As a result, NW has forbidden X from seeing DGD. She is 7 months, he had to sneak into the hospital to see her when she was born. Was not allowed to attend her Christening. He has not seen her since August when he came to pick up D3 and D2 took the baby out to see him.
D3 is in her second year away at college. She keeps most of her feelings to herself regarding him. She tolerates NW better than her older sisters, but doesn't really deal with her.
D4 is 17, which was the age of elightenment for the other girls. Senior year and she is telling him exactly what she expects him to do and how to behave at the events we will be at jointly.
It has been interesting to watch my girls grow up and grow thru this. The older 2 have very good BS meters. The younger 2 not so good. It makes me wonder if being in a normal family situation longer helped to forge the BS meter.
When we separated/divorced they were 12, 12,(twins) 10 and 8.
I'm still here, too. I've been dealing with my health and my son going to school and all the other things going on, so I haven't been around much. Seems things just got away from me.
My son is doing exceptionally well in school, and earned a perfect attendance and an academic excellence award already. His teachers all love him, and he feels the same about them. It's beautiful to watch him blossoming into the kid he should have been all these years. Glorious.
My health is ok; it's just that it's winter, the house is drafty, and that kills me. I spend way more time in bed than I want to, and my computer died... so I have to venture out to use someone else's. It sucks.
My youngest and I are working on moving out on our own. There's a resource guy at his school who's helping us get things figured out so we can be independent. Not only will it help us have time together, but it will get us somewhere that my STBXNPD won't know about. And a friend is going to sell me a vehicle at tax time, so we'll be free and independent and together... just us and our little dogs. I'll miss some things about living with all my kids and my granddaughters, but I think it'll be nice to let my youngest son have all my attention. The others are grown up now, and it should be his turn.
So that's my update, minus anything about the STBX. There's plenty of that, but I am tired and want to go to bed.
Love to all you guys, and lots of hugs.
This brought back memories. My older 2 were recieving their Confirmation. X had made it so difficult for them to attend the necessary classes that the youth director worked with the DRE to create a special class for my kids on Sunday evening before the youth group met. The youth director took it upon himself to contact X and work it out with him. Basically have X on board with this for the kids. X agreed to meeting (at a halfway point) an hour earlier on the weekends (3 a month) that were his and coincided with this class.
That lasted about a month. After that he was late.. the kids started getting on him to be on time. They wanted to be on time. They really liked the youth director and knew he went out of his way to help them and X was screwing with that.
We made other arrangements for them to make up the classes the girls missed. This time having nothing to do with X and all on my time. I was fine with it.
We were less than a month from Confirmation when my X called the Bishop's office and announced that the DRE and the Youth director and I were FORCING my kids to make their Confirmation. This reguired my kids having a special audience with the Bishop for him to determine IF my kids were ready to recieve the sacrament. They made thier confirmation, and X and mrsx attended the ceremony.
Talk about double standard...
I hope your X is nothing like mine.
What a prick!
My older child is way more affected by the D and his dad's NPD ways than my younger child. They are only 17 months apart in age, but I think those 17 months made a huge difference. (One had just turned 5, the other was 6 1/2 when their dad left.)
The only good news is that they didn't see a lot of conflict or turmoil. Psychologists will say this is a bad thing because then children are so shocked when their parents D. But I feel like I found out about STBX's latest SA episodes just in time to get him out of the house immediately. If he had stayed, my children would have seen a TON of anger and dysfunction. And they would have known that there are huge secrets in their family.
Someday I suppose I'll have to tell them that their father has some serious problems. But that's in the future. Now I just need to get through each day and get the world's worst divorce DONE.
Now I just need to get through each day and get the world's worst divorce DONE.
I just realized my role might be draggin each other cross the finish line...though we're going to have to hold off on 'world's worst' prize for awhile yet...
What's the prize guys? An empty caulk gun? v's zebraduck? our song?
No and yes to all of them I think. Since it's been so long...
As long as the song sung is free, I'll sing along lustily
Since X/NW have made it very clear to my kids that I lie, anything I say is taken as being false till proven true. Things are the other way around for those with a working BS meter.
Although D3 was recently told by XH that his anniversary was in October. Her reaction was 'you're mistaken dad, you and NW were married in November. I was there, I remember." He was married in October in a secret ceremony performed by a notary public. The ceremony they had in November with all the kids in the wedding party was not a marriage ceremony. The minister walked out when she was asked to lie and perform a marriage ceremony. The chaplain of fire dept performed the marriage ceremony complete with witnesses signing a false document.
D2 told D3 the truth. I stood there not saying a thing. D3 looked at me, and all I said was -It's available online at the court clerks site in our county. If you really want the truth. She asked me how did I know about it. I told her XH informed me of it when I questioned some of his documents during mediation for CS.
I wonder now if he was trying to tell her the truth.... as he is loosing all those people who love him because of his lies. His parents in the past 9 months have made very little effort in his direction. And a whole lot of effort in the direction of D2 and DGD. Their great Granddaughter, NW has told them they need to make a choice D2 and the baby or XH and her. They have decided to throw their support behind D2 and an innocent baby and they are getting an earful about what has been going on (from my kids and from SIL) for the last 9 years. They suspected, but are now getting confirmation. The way X and NW have treated them in the last few months is also eye opening.
I feel bad for them.... this is hurting them in so many ways.
My kids will be fine... eventually they will realize his whole life is a bunch of lies. At least they are asking for confirmation, If I don't know, I tell them. If I do, I give them an unbiased place to find the truth.
They are older, and I have their therapists (from a long time ago) permission to do this - when they ask me if it is true.
The reason for doing this is kids see one thing (usually the truth) and are told something completely different happened - if it happens enough times and with someone in authority that they love, they will eventually believe that person over their own voice. Eventually they will loose trust in their self and what they see and look to others (when the authority figure) is not around for their version of the truth. Great if the person they pick is trustworthy, but suppose they aren't.
Since my XH was rewriting everything about our family and telling the kids and they were beleiving him. Kid'g therapist thought it imperative I combat his lies with proof based truth when (and If) the occasion arises.
I have been doing it and it seems to be working.
The BS meter - they need it. Right now everything that he/she say to them is taken as Gospel.
I have the same situation, but my children are much younger, obviously. What a horrible, horrible thing to do - to lie to children.
The reason for doing this is kids see one thing (usually the truth) and are told something completely different happened - if it happens enough times and with someone in authority that they love, they will eventually believe that person over their own voice. Eventually they will loose trust in their self and what they see and look to others (when the authority figure) is not around for their version of the truth. Great if the person they pick is trustworthy, but suppose they aren't. Since my XH was rewriting everything about our family and telling the kids and they were beleiving him. Kid'g therapist thought it imperative I combat his lies with proof based truth when (and If) the occasion arises. I have been doing it and it seems to be working.
Thank you. I've read this, I've been told this, but it's different to hear it from someone who has lived through all of this and actually followed the advice.
My son (nearly 8) is beginning to ask questions. STBX cuts him off or changes to topic. He does this to adults all day long, so my poor little son is an easy mark. But my son won't come and ask me about it. One example is that my children don't even know where their father lives. Until last week, he lived with OW (fellow SA).
Can you imagine not knowing where your father lives????
But they haven't asked me. And I'm in no rush to tell them he lived with another woman, and now I don't even know where he lives at all.
I need to get my children into therapy. I'm hoping a therapist can tell me how much to tell them - and how.
Thanks so much for sharing your story. This thread has helped me so much already.
Years ago there was a book "What to tell the Children?" or something like that by Judith Wallerstien.. I wish I had it in the beginning, I would have handled things better. My understanding from a friend who used it. It gives great examples of what to say to kids at age appropriate ways to say it. My friend found it very valuable, her kids ranged from 2-13 at the time of her divorce from her cheating X.
It might be worth finding in a library.
I am glad I can help....
What's the song?
I have 6 count em grease guns...I am sure I have more than 3 caulk guns.
I also have brass spray paint... I can make an award we can pass around.
Although on another forum, my X does hold The Biggest Dick award. I told him that once... he was sooo proud.
Of course he won the award not for the size of his genitals, but his Nego.
Just let it be our little secret OK?
I can, it happened with my father. Police found his car broken down on the side of the road. Blood on the steering wheel, door handle and a few other spots. And him no where to be found.
He had left my mother a couple of months earlier. We had no idea where he went when he left. My brother at one point had followed him to a boarding house. Bro checked there, but he had been gone about 3 weeks when the police came to the house to tell us about his car.
My godfather saw him in a deli a week later and told him to call us. He did. I don't know if he ever told my mother where he lived. My brother (20yo) followed him to OW's house.
My XH didn't pull that on the kids, but he has refused to give his physical address to me, his attorney, the judge, the divorce papers all have his PO Box. When the judge was about to sign the final decree, he even commented that X's place must be very cramped for him, NW and 6 kids.
Dickhead was supposed to be signing a loan modification with me. It would halve my current payment, get the forbearance off of both of our credit reports, and give me a month's delay in paying it even so that we could have a nice Christmas. I got the papers in yesterday and contacted him about signing it. He didn't respond until today. Now he wants to talk to a lawyer before he signs it, he wants copies of everything I have filed with the court, and he wants to discuss the divorce. Now, really, you want us to mediate a quickie divorce in two seconds, but you don't have time to sign a document that you already agreed to sign???? Really, stupid motherfucker????
How long ago was the D signed? I would check with a lawyer in state how long the agreement can be held before being filed.
It may be that MIL held the agreement so long it isn't valid.
If it is valid and SIL has been recieving benefits all along while MIL holds onto it... and BIL THNKS he is divorced..
It is HIS VA Loan, she can't get to it unless he gives her access.
