Hello all  here's the story for the week. You need patience for things. Something I really don't have. My life has always been me running a mile a minute while everybody else is taking it slow.

I kid you not anyway the chairs in  the stores were to expensive they wanted $100 bucks a piece for kitchen table chairs. I passed on that. So with the nice weather cam the yard sales and I lucked up and got the kitchen chairs that originally came with the table I already have f ..read more

  Hello all well here's the story for May so far. I keep canceling my trip to Atlantic city that I was looking forward to. First it was the wrong time now this time I have to cancel is because I have a feet problem that needs a doctor. I think the universe is telling me to stay the heck out of Atlantic City for a while.

  Hello all happy April. Well, here's the news so far. I hate my Uncle Sam. I don't even believe he's my real uncle. Here's why tax season his here and guess what?

Again because of taxes My d**n Uncle would take a bit out of my A** if I would sell the house right now. So, I have to wait a ..read more

  Hello all well here's the story for the week. I did my taxes and my account said that I have to take my rental house off the market for a while because If I didn't the taxes, I have to pay would be around $100,000 to uncle sam. That's crazy right. I don't think my hand would allow me to write check that big to the government. Needless to say, I still have to pay taxes on money that we made this year which sucks. But at least it's not 100,000. Anyway, with all the number and realization that our account did for us I have to now wait to collect my social security because again that will ..read more

My real estate agent I have been working with came in with an offer all cash for my rental home I want to sell.
