Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

Illinois divorce default

I am going to point blank this. I waited too long (unintentially) for a arguement on a Judgment. It has been over 30 days. Wife came to me and said ''loser, I own the house now!''LOL. Well, come to find out she is right. (atleast the house part.) Is it out of my hands now? did I actually lose the house or can there be some type of action I can do. I didn't have money at the time to get attorney. I was saving my cents. Now we have accumilated more asstes throughout and I may be out of the house. But I am laid off. (no income) Am I looking forward to the streets? I have enough here besiides the house to get me an apartment? But will she get that too. What can I do to salvage what is left?
