And yet another possibility presents itself

I have money. I don't mean, as in, I have MONEY, but I do have some money set aside in various 401Ks and IRAs. It occurred to me last week that I could, having reached the ripe age of 62 and nearly 1/2 take a modest slice from these without incurring penalties. Taxes, yes, penalties, no.

This plus being off my meds for about five days (now remedied, back on them) caused my little heart to soar for most of Saturday and come in for a soft landing yesterday.

This gives me time to do a lot of things while obviously continuing to look for a job. I can downsize what's in my house and do a lot of cleaning out. This while preparing for either a roomie (yes, I'd take that chance again) or moving in with Cousin Kim. Neither is ideal, nor is the situation in which I find myself. Still, it's another out. Or in, depending on your point of view.

I would like to get some kind of office work, something not in retail, something where I'm not on my feet all day. That seems to be as hard to find as hen's teeth but as I said before, I should be checking Craigslist.

I'm still going to check into social services, although I'm counting on nothing.

Yesterday, I began creating a new schedule for myself and believe that sticking to it will be good for me.

In mundane news, the cats are all fine. When I sit on the couch, I'm quickly joined by Toby and Sophie. Lovely. The snow here on Saturday was lovely to watch from the comfort of the sofa. The driveway fairies came overnight and all I had to do yesterday was find my gloves and clean off the car. Yay.
