Not sure if I would want it to look like an Audi, but a tuck and trim here and there would be very helpful.
Then again, I’m not the target market for this car (although it would be something I’d be willing to buy, maybe).
Transport business....really staring to accelerate....to the point where I would need help. My “back up” guy doesn’t want to work the hours it would take, especially with me out of commission for a while. So, it’s looking like the short lived little business I was building to have something to do during retirement is going to disappear....especially in light of my current situation.
Current situation....went for the 10 day follow up to my detached retinal surgery. Well...none of it is good news. It appears the retina is detaching again. Surgeon was hopeful initially. But, I now have to go back for another surgery tomorrow, this time putting oil behind the retina to hold in place (sturdier than the gas they injected before). Oil has to be removed at some point (few-6 months). So, that’s yet another eye surgery. That’ll be 7 surgeries, all on the same eye. 50-50 I get sight back. I’m almost OK with no sight in that eye if the surgeries will cease.
So, when/if recover starts, I’ll check in. I know you guys are all wishing for the best, so no need to tell me. It’s a given. Thank you in advance.
2020 started badly and has become progressively worse. I for one am ready for a new start and put all of this behind us.

Best of the luck with the next surgery and fingers crossed the surgeon can make it so you can see out of that eye once again.
I can't imagine going through this.

I think you changed the blurb that tells about yourself and what you currently own.

Hopefully I made the right decisions regarding my insurance coverages - only time will tell.

I seriously question the medical/dental field now, as I already had my "complications" with my dentist probably needlessly recommending a quick fix crown which spiraled into a later root canal and then another temp crown and then finally a permanent crown #2. All in a year. Went 40 years with the original tooth and probably 20 with the filling with no issues...... 40:1 right now.

Hoping for great results for you !
What you’re going through is sort of a grieving process. You’ve suffered a loss of a few significant things in your life and it can take it’s toll. Hope you feel better eventually.

Meanwhile, after a sleepless night in the lavatory, I'm in the final stages of my prep for my colonoscopy this afternoon. Prayers.
I think where we left off I was arguing with the township about all the concrete they wanted replaced. Well, we didn't quite win the entire argument but did have them accept that our driveway apron is fine and a few other things that shaved the cost significantly.
The buyer's home inspection really yielded nothing that needed attention. It was all very small items that were not of any safety concern. We decided to leave the washer/dryer (both sets) for them to offset. The new home has brand new units so we were going to sell them anyway.
The new house has been a disaster. It was new construction in a fairly small development. There were no comps and caused us serious appraisal issues. We ended up switching lenders in order to get a more favorable appraisal and it yielded the same result.
The owners had to get out, so we were able to compromise them taking a loss and us shifting a good portion of our down payment to pay them directly. They ended up losing over 12K from their new construction price from two years ago. Lots of negotiating and stress to iron all this out. Only downside is our PMI is a bit high but we saved $27,500 from the original price so it certainly offsets.
Needless to say we have been on edge because losing the home would be one thing, but we would have had no place to live! Wife and I both agreed we weren't doing anything to jeopardize the sale of our current home.

I'm hoping that in a year or two I can have the home re-appraised to cut down on the PMI.

We don't qualify. Haven't had that issue.
Frankly, as useless as Bank-hired appraisers are (given they are inaccurate constantly) Banks might as well not hire them and everyone saves the money (namely the buyer/seller as they end up paying for it). That was probably the best thing Obama did; HARP 2.0 allowed loans without the wasted time and cost of a hired appraiser.
