Crisis…what crisis?
So the worst is not over yet.
Today the payment went through for paying off the original 401k loan. Hopefully tomorrow it’ll be credited to my account & I’ll be cleared to take the next loan.
I’ve been making payments each week & wrote a letter of my intent to pay the balance by end of Feb.
March can’t come fast enough.
Haven’t sold it all yet…
There’s still more to go. Just catching up on shipping. Tons of albums to go. It’s been sad but good.
Still not out of the woods…plan still moving forward. Paperwork in to pay off one loan, of course that takes 6 business days…then another week to process the next loan.
Still in search of full time work.
This whole experience, as stressful as it’s been, is teaching me some important lessons. 45 yrs in the making.
I will never go into debt again.
This is it…cash or we don’t get it
Less is really more.
My dream is to live by the ocean in a little apartment. The simple life.
People are truly good.
The number of people who have looked at my auctions, bought stuff through my auctions, bought stuff outright…and donated money to help me out has been overwhelming. I will pay it forward.
My husband is one of a kind.
I had tried in vain to deal with this crisis on my own but had to finally fess up…he has told me that it will be alright. And we’d get through it. I still don’t believe him.
I want to.
I hope to.
E-bay…
More items are listed up on e-bay. They are Bee Gees and Eddie Izzard…two of my favorite things through out the years. Still to come is all my Bee Gees albums.
I have a list of video tapes available, it just needs to be updated because the paypal check out wasn’t working.
I also have a bunch of high quality photographs of Eddie Izzard printed off the internet. Unsure if I can sell those, although I would like to.
Also, I am looking for a few more freelance web design jobs. My portfolio is here
Also…my daughter has a couple of cafe press shops: here and here
Hit by that train…
So my efforts to avoid disaster have fallen a bit short but I still have to move forward with the plan.
Next round of e-bay items will go live tonight. I’m $200 from my goal.
Update..
So I’ve sold a lot of stuff…still much more to go but I’m catching up for a bit, getting stuff shipped out. Will probably post more on Saturday. Thank you all for all you’ve done.
I’m about $100 away from being able to pay off my 401K loan. When I pay off that one I’ll be cleared for another loan… that will be used to pay off my the freight train barreling at me. A band-aid for sure but at least that will be paid back through payroll deductions.
The video page isn’t working as I had hoped, I’ll work on it tomorrow and get it back up in some fashion.
This year has to get better.
