HEY ALL!! calm before the storm .. or is it quiet time

    "    Oh a storm is threat'ning my very life today, if I don't get some shelter oh yeah I'm gonna fade away  ..  ..  Ooh see the fire is sweepin' our very street today, burns like a red coal carpet mad bull has lost its way    "    Well things are falling into place. I got my retirement information, they sent it overnight!! It was about what I thought, if I start drawing it now I get $127 a month. If I wait two years it goes up to $157, and if I wait till I am 65 it's $321. WOW!! All that after 15 years of service. WOW I hope I don't drive 'em into bankruptcy!! Of course if I had stayed fro another 20 years or so. It would be pretty nice. But now I know and can make decision from there. I just am not sure what I want to do. In my current state of finance, I am not sure if $127 a month will do that much. BUT it is $127 a month!! I will spend some time and evaluate things. I am still waiting to hear from the Mortgage Company about dropping the MIP coverage, that's $86 a month!! Heard from my brother yesterday. His girl friend left, told him she was tired of the shit and fuck off. He thinks she will be back in a few days. But he has not made any progress on getting his affairs in order. Someone is going to have to help him. And mostly he is there to tell what ever company you are talking to that they have his permission to discuss the matter with you. I am going to try and get my sister to help. Maybe we can make a trip into see him gather up everything and spend a day or two going through it all. He has some options. I am just not sure what they are, or how they will help him. But it can not be put off any further.  CHOW MOI!!
