I Want To Throw Up

I closed on my house in Texas.  Or thought I did.  Right after I signed the papers I got an email from my realtor saying that the foundation repair people detected a sewer problem that had to be fixed before they would provide the warranty.

Today, a plumber scoped the line and found a crack in the pipe smack dab in the middle of the house, plus massive tree roots in the line in the yard.  To fix it (which I have to do in order to sell this god-awful, money pit, soul sucking monstrosity), will cost me $22,000.  No, that's not a misprint.  $22k.

Of course I'm getting another opinion, but right now I want to curl up in a ball in a corner and suck my thumb.  Right after I throw up.
