Back in May 1999, my dear Father in law RIP talked me into joining a little auction site called ebay. He'd been after me to join since I think it was called auctionweb. I was 37 years old & still had kids in school. I had 20/20 vision & my health. Life was pretty darn good. Now, here I sit falling apart, can't see for nothing & old. My inlaws have left us recently & it makes you start to wonder what's really important. I love ebay & all my ebay friends but I can't see myself continuing after we move in a few months. It's just so hard & I've just recently found out I'm truly losing my eyesight. I don't know if I want the stress anymore & thanks to my inlaws & they're planning for the future, We won't need to worry about money for a long time.
BTW, even if you only have 1 child living, 1 heir, make sure you're will is buttoned up. Add them to your bank accounts as beneficiaries or they will have to probate. Trust me on this. Probate attorneys are good but they are not cheap & it takes a minimum of 6 months.
I will make my decision later as I have a storage shed full of items but I really don't think I need the stress at this point in my life. Maybe I'm just grieving I don't know. I know my heart is broken from the loss, my health & eyes are failing. I will listen to anything you all have to say. I put my store on vacation again cause I just can't deal right now. I thought going back to work would help with the loss of my family but it didn't help at all.
Now, I'm going to tell you what's really important! It's family & friends. It's not money or stuff. I'm at the point where I couldn't care less about all this junk I hauled down here from VA & I won't be taking it to Jacksonville with me when we move for the last time.
BTW, we need a 4 BDR house near NAS Jax if anyone has one for sale.
I will be back later when I make up my mind. Please don't pm me because my pjs haven't worked right since the big "update" & I may or may not be able to read any pms sent to me. It's been a blast! Lots of good friends, good times & good memories from ebay! I will miss it if I don't come back. I'll be in and out while we are taking care of business here. Gotta sell 2 properties before we can move so it's going to be busy. Gotta clear out my FILs hoard! Fun times! 😀😀❤️❤️❤️💔💔💔
