Mentally laying on the ground with a great big UGH!
Well, training for the bike race has begun and I have WAY further to go than I thought, lol. Rode my bike to work yesterday since Fall temps have started (45 degrees this morning), and the tiny little hill just before the office? UGH. Speed isn't my strong point, lol. Well, we all start somewhere - And I'm definitely starting at the bottom!
Neighbor - SILENCE next door - LOVE IT!
Family - (laughing) I think I freaked my aunt out because I told her I got the information I was looking for. She's not replying to my last e-mail where I ask again whether or not she can just liquidate my share directly from the trust and send me a check, lol. I think she's just found my "mine field" (questions that lead to confirmation whether or not there is fraud about to happen) and is freaking out. It's obvious to me that she's pretty clueless, so I'm not gonna mess with her too much - worst case scenario I accept the stock (all in banks, YIKES!) and liquidate it myself for lots of extra fees... cross your fingers this happens before the election so I can get the most out of it I can.
So, here I go again... about to take off on another training ride..... mentally, as well as physically. It's like putting your feet on the pedals and slowly taking off up the hill in front of you... which eventually becomes an AWESOME downhill (and worth the effort to get there)! LATER!

You are really doing well with your new life. You are getting info you need taking care of rude obnoxious neighbors. You have goals for your future. Training for a bike race. You are so busy and I don\'t know how you get it all done. You are thriving and your new life suits you well.
Yep, we all gotta start somewhere :) Good job!
Great job seeing your finances for what they really are in this economy. I know that I am in full agreement with you that this money needs to be liquidated since things look like they are going to go south again economically. Of course there is no real way to predict this stuff for sure, but think about it, even at the very best, the returns will be nominal.
