Crying over 39 Cents

Not sure why this is disturbing but it truly makes me just cry.

I keep getting statements from a bank acct I closed 9 months ago but for some reason they did not give me 39 Cents. Its taken an act of God to get them to finally close it, and quit sending me statements.

I know the account is not the real reason for my upset but it sure has triggered something. I just cry.

BUT I have made a decision I need to sell my place in the mts as I did the pros and cons and the financial burden will bring me down.
So if I can get my place sold I plan on moving closer to my son some 6 hrs away. I will miss the elk and the deer coming by my window as I am a Montana country girl at heart but I also want to not worry about finances.
I need to work part time to keep me going and the prospect here are low on employment. Once the RV park winds up Oct - Nov it would be a long drive and employment is pretty slim anyway.

If I could win the lottery than I would stay til God takes me home but can not be helped.

Have you bounced all the numbers off someone else before you make a final decision? I understand how you feel and the position you are in. I had to face some unpleasant financial realities after Mike died. However, I found that the more time went on the more able I was able to see how to make things work. At first it was all overwhelming and I couldn't see my way out. I was also going to sell my house and move, but now I'm reconsidering. Someone else might see something you don't, you never know.

I'm wishing you well with whatever you decide to do. Goodness knows these things aren't easy.

Hugs,
Amy

Nicker its just one more thing...I have had those moments too...just one more thing that I dont want to deal with when my plate is already so full....I pray that it all works out well for you on your finances. Moving closer to your son may turn out to be such a blessing for you and him. Debbie...:)
