The stock is dropping....
I have lost 2% of my savings year to date on the Progressive stock alone... What's up with that? I have diversified my investments so I'm not completely dependent on our stock's performance, but it's still disheartening.
On another note, we applied for another apt. and I'm very hopeful. They said as long as things even out everything will be okay. Meaning, if I have okay credit and his is crappy that I should outweigh him. I hope I hope. I need this to happen soon because we need to move next weekend. The great news is that at this apt. if we pay $844 on move-in that takes care of the last part of January as well as all of February so we wouldn't have to stress it. Yay!! I am trying to tentatively set up utilities, but we are having his mom do our electricity since SRP requires insane deposits.... insane. Like $240 is the "normal" set up fee.
My family is having this crazy drama right now too... I need to vent it my dearest LJ friends... Ready? My mom's car was going to get repossessed because it was 2 months past due, her home phone is turned off and there are other financial areas lacking. This is all because my sis-in-law continues to borrow money for her phantom illness and my aunt and mom continue to shell it out. I'm told that I'm cynical and they are ashamed of me when I bring up that no one can prove she's sick!! I mean come on! If she could show me where she gets IV chemo every DAY... DAY people... doctors give you days off.... let's not even mention that her cancer is "terminal" and she's been alive with it for over a year. It's a rare form that only 9 people have and her doctor does not exist in California... you cannot find him. My aunt Cathy swears she has gone to appts. but there is no way she has gone into the room to see what was happening, so how does she know it wasn't a physical?? I'm just pissed that she took advantage of their kindness and got them into so much trouble. My sister's husband called my older brother to tell him what was going on with mom and he got mad and called my younger brother (married to sis-in-law of evil) who then said he knew nothing about that money. How do you get $7k and not alert your husband to it?! I mean, if I had $7k, Domingo would surely be alerted to it.... Ehh, I don't know, sometimes I wish I had been an only child.
