Maryanne, I understand precisely--I don't invite folks in often because of dust and clutter. I need to fix that.
Last night there was 5 minutes of cat hell and sheer pandemonium when we did the IV. Got it in okay, but he's strong, and my big tall son was ready to faint as we held him (relatively) still to let the saline solution in. I stopped the IV when it was borderline enough because I was afraid the kid might fall and hurt himself. This cat is big, loud, and really really really pissed off. We'll have to see if 10 minutes of this a week is a good trade off for the rest of the time.
Finished the College Board financial info last night, sat down at ex's table and we flogged the numbers from tax returns, texted daughter in college to get her info--but it is finished. Now must do a few more school forms. We don't have money, so we have to make the time to fill in all of the paperwork. It's a full-time job.
I decluttered a couple of regular bills lately. I switched power companies and am waiting on the final quote for homeowners and auto insurance. Huge savings there (from Allstate to Amica). Next, cable company, and maybe dumping AT&T. Charter might just get a tiny little bundle, but I won't take it without substantial savings available for a long time. Make 'em work for it.
