Judy has been going through her kitchen cabinets deciding
which pots and pans she will be putting on the RV. We hope we can get most of
the things we will need on the RV while we are at Blanton Creek Park because
once we leave we will be putting it back into storage until we go to Fl.
Wed. Judy had an emergency appointment with her hair
stylist. Judy has not been happy with
her last hair style. I did my part, each time she asked me what I thought about
her new doo, I said, “it looks good to me”.
When I stopped by to pick her up I ran into my realtor. He told me that
one of the houses on my street had just sold for $292,000.00. I already knew that it had sold but did not
know the selling price. The house was purchased in 2009 for $425,000.00. This reinforces Judy’s and my decision to take
our house off the market as we are not ready to “give our house away”. We will simply pay the house off. In the event of a medical situation or some
other calamity we will have a house to go to.
When Judy and I picked up our mail at the Post Office I had a jury duty summons. I am to report the
day before we leave to Portland. I will
be checking on this matter today. I hope I can get a deferment since I have
already purchased my airline tickets. I’ll let you know how that goes.
That’s all for now.
Thanks for stopping by.Next Blog: Sunday
I don't blame you for taking your house off the market. That's crazy! Half the value.
ReplyDeleteThis economy has played havoc on many retirees' plans. Judy and I will continue to adjust our RV plans as required. I sure hope Nov. will bring some change to the economic conditions because another four years of this will be a disaster.
DeleteYou are the second fulltimer I've heard about lately with jury duty. Doesn't fit into the plans, does it?
ReplyDeleteI went to see the court clerk Friday and explained my travel plans. I had a copy of my airline tickets, but she didn't look at them. She took my summons and told me she would remove my name from the list. I did not expect it to be that easy, but I was glad.
