I said I’d never use the word adulting. But there I go. Just who do I think I am? Some youngster playing grown-up. Nope because I have been an adult for way more years than I can count. Hell I was a miniature adult/somber kid. Was I ever a kid? Hmmm.
Maybe, kind of, sort of, not really!
Now let’s get to the main event.
We used to have our long-term care premiums deducted from my paycheck. That service ended and now we have the premiums deducted from our checking account. This is the first month JH w/d $47. Say that 3 x’s fast. lol
AND I could SWEAR 52 that I did not see the $47 increase in my paycheck. Hmmm!
I know it is psychological but when the money comes out before I see it, the cost is cheaper. Right? Lol. Not even. Just an optical illusion.
We are also on the hunt to find other less expensive life insurance. Kiddos are grown so we do not need as much as when they were babies. We are even considering prearrangement. But that’s what my parents did God bless em. We should just do the same. With our funerals paid for, we could really reduce the life insurance to a little pocket change for the kids or cancel it completely.
Decisions, decisions. Hmmm.
So how many times is too many times to write Hmmm in a post. The answer is four! lol
As always, more to come.
Spend your kids’ inheritance. They’re to young to know how to enjoy it anyhow.

We cancelled the life insurance on my husband and I still have a policy but it is a whole life so there is money accruing for us to use if we need to (which we did). We both want to be cremated so there won’t be as many expenses. Funny how that money seems to disappear!

it sure does disappear. I could kick myself now for not getting a whole life policy. We had each had one but cashed them in going with the cheaper term which was okay when we were younger but now post 50 the term isn’t so cheaper anymore. And people think we are crazy to have long term care insurance but you never know.

I generally dislike the verbing of nouns and refuse to go there (see what I did there?). I will never say I’m gifting something. But adulting? That I have embraced with open arms. It’s perfect. And I stink at it. 🙂

😂 I see another Alaskan vacation is our future. Of course at $47 a month it may take us a few years to save up enough 😉 😎
