So life likes to throw people a few obstacles at times to see how we go in dealing with them. So a few life updates...not really financial but updates anyways.

Oldest was told that her surgery would be delayed for a year because she needed private health insurance (have a 12 month wait on surgery for it) even though we just wanted to pay for it ($7-10k) so we looked around but needed the surgery numbers to make sure it was covered, so we did that...while we were doing that her fertility clinic said a new doctor started there and she migth not have to wait he would do it and we could just pay for it...so she has an appointment tomorrow to find out if he can do it...so that is great.

We are moving just not sure when..we dont have a time that we have to move so it is nice to find a house that will fit what we want and not just take anything we can get because we have to move by a certain date...also nice that we have time to go through everything and we have already donated and sold a a few things so that is nice not to have to take all the extra they no longer use and find a place to store it. We did get a storage unit to store things we are not using right now so it give us a little more room. When we move it will be a lot more organised and once we get everything in and put away then we can start with the stuff in the storage unit and it will just be easier...I am hoping to be moved by mid nov because it will start getting hot here by then. We will have to pay for movers for at least the heavy stuff, we should be able to do boxes ourselves, the storage unit is half price for 2 months so that is awesome but we will also be paying more in rent because we need more room and rentals are not going down in price, but we have factored that in

We wont be buying a home anytime soon because what money we do have will be going to the move and surgery but I am okay with that...

we are still debt free and that was one of our biggest things. Once we move I will be working on my health more and maybe an online business...

Youngest daughter had a great job but they hired a young girl who caused a lot of issues and my daughter being like me spoke up when she said they were bullying her (they didnt invite her to eat lunch with them) HR said they should..daughter is like its not high school we dont have to eat with her we have nothing in common and we dont need to include her, she is 20 and we are 30 we dont care to listen to her go on about partying all weekend..we arent interested in her or her life. They just wanted the girl to stop complaining so my daughter applied for new jobs and got one friday, more money than this job she has and when she put in her resignation they tried to talk her out of it and she said NO....my daughter is very good at her job and people love her...but once she is done she is done...so she ahd to give 1 month notice and she will leave. She is much happier but no-one else is there because they lose a good worker and stuck with a young girl who complains all the time if the attention is on her...a lot of gen Z are like this...but my daughter is like me...I wont argue with you I will do what is required of me and no more and I wont stay where I am unhappy...and bonus she is making more money now

I'm not really budgeting right now because I have money in the bank to cover all our monthly bills for months but when we move I will get serious about it again as I want to save as much as we can for a home deposit...so going to make some fun things to do to make it interesting to save money

Still feels weird saying we are debt free...but so happy about it
