Was meant to be a To Do List, turned into mostly random babbling
Deposited insurance check with credit union, it should clear in two weeks. I think I will postpone my cemetery plot payment until then - they still haven't sent me a receipt or statement or invoice and when I called initially to find out how much the monthly payment was they were indifferent about when in the month I paid, so I think paying the balance in October will offset not paying anything in September. And then I can think about headstones.
The stock sale and stock option exercise went fine and should cover my remaining bills comfortably. I should do that today, pay bills.
Actually got a title in the mail for the station wagon, after the DMV told me we were going paperless. Confusing, but it's nice to have the paper. So if I do want to sell a car that'll be the one to go. At least until I get the lien situation on the Toyota fixed.
I should get myself to a doctor before the end of the year. I have the high deductible HSA type of insurance, which makes a lot more sense when you have income than when you don't, but I'm pretty sure we've already met our deductible for the year, so I should take advantage of that. And if we didn't, I gain nothing by waiting. Nothing is wrong, I'm just overdue for the usual tests and checks. It might be nice to have ADHD meds again if I'm going to try to be a productive member of society. I also need to see a dentist and get my eyes checked, but those are under separate coverage so I'm not feeling a lot of time pressure there.
I want to spend October mostly quietly at home, figuring out my budget and sorting out my wardrobe and domestic stuff like that. There's a retreat in the middle of the month that I think I will attend virtually and I would like to let the retreat mentality spread out over the rest of the month. I've been kind of pushing myself to be social (which would not look all that social to most people, I imagine, but for me it's been a lot) and while I can do it and even enjoy it, it wears me out something fierce. If I can get to the point of knowing how much normal stuff (ie: house work, dog walking, neighborly chatting, etc.) I can do sustainably, I think I'll be abe to compensate for occasional spikes of sociability better.
November, December, January and February all have significant dates that will be especially hard, also, so the more I can stabilize in October the better.
Incidentally, I just talked to my next-door neighbor and they ARE moving out and a renter will move in on the first. Single guy with a kid with him on weekends who works for DirecTV; he apparently spotted my dish and wanted B to tell me to come to him with problems, he'll save me the cost of a service call. So, I'm disposed kindly towards him already.
