Warm summer days
Jul. 27th, 2017 09:53 pmFor all that I live a very boring life, there are several things going on!
Thing the first, I'm getting a new roof on my house. We had a terrible storm on the 26th of June and I lost several shingles. My roof was leaking, and when I called my insurance agent, they came out and said, yep, it needed to be replaced. They cover most of it, but I have a $1000 deductible. Eek! I am very, very, VERY lucky that my mom is going to help me out. She's going to pay the $1000 and I'm going to pay her back in installments I can afford. So long as it's paid off within the year, she's happy.
Thing the second, I've finally been approved through my insurance to get infusions. My RA has been horrible, and one of the medications I was on, Planquil, was giving me horrible side effects. They wanted me to start the infusions back in May but I've been fighting the insurance company, and they finally authorized them. I'm really hoping this medicine helps, because my hands are getting worse, and honestly, I'm kind of scared about permanent damage. There is no cure for RA, but they can usually try for remission. Here's hoping!
And finally, I just got a letter today from my mortgage lender. I put in for assistance because I was falling further and further behind on my payments. I couldn't catch up, and I was just spinning my wheels. I have to call them tomorrow to verify what I read, but I'm pretty sure they're putting me on a modified plan and then putting any remaining missed payments on the back of my loan. Thank God! I've been stressing about this for over a year, and I'm finally starting to see light at the end of the tunnel, and it's not a train!
Work is still going amazing at the moment, and I'm so grateful every morning. I'm kind of hoping that if things keep going well, I may be able to get a new car next year. Mine is 16 years old and even though it's paid off and is doing fine, I'm starting to notice it's struggling a bit. I love my car, and want to keep it going as long as I can, but I think it may also be time to look at something new. Fingers crossed!
I hope you're all doing well. (((HUGS)))
