I have a large number of mutual funds and stock holdings. Most of them do not have great sums of money in them. Just something I found interesting to do when I was in my 50's. Now, since I have been hospitalized, I have decided to close some of them. My husband is not into money managing and I can;t imagine leaving him with a mess to sort out.
Of course, I do not want to pay a lot of taxes on capital gains, so I will take it slowly. I sent off to close one mutual fund and two stocks yesterday. I will add the cash to our EF.
I also saved $11 at Ingles yesterday, which I will ad to my $20 challenge.

I went to the doctor in Gainesville on Wednesday. I have a large mass in my pelvis area. He convinced me to have surgery to remove it. The operation was set for March 11th, but my heart doctor did not think I should undergo the operation, so I cancelled. I will have another ultra sound next Friday.

For the past several months, I have been trying to get my driver's license renewed. Apparently, you have to prove a lot of stuff about your self. WEll, I have been turned down twice because of my driver's licnese. Apparently, the one I had was issued by the Dtp. of Census and it NOT valid! I finally got my real birth certificate from the bureau of Vital Recorda. It is the FIRST time I have ever seen it. Look out license bureau!

We had to buy a new refrigerator this week. My freezer quit working and it was leaking. I guess that will be my christmas present this year. This is my 3rd refrigerator in 17 years. They sure don't make them like they use to!!

Today would have been my daughter's 44th birthday. She died in July.
My birthday was yesterday. I remember the lawyer calling me on my birthday saying that my baby was on the way. (She was adopted at birth) She was born at 2 the next morning and I had to go and quit my job the next day. That was an exciting time!
No body in my family has lived to a ripe old age. If I make it one more year, I will be the oldest! I have no living family except for my hubby and puppies!
