You actually read through that multi chapter book that I posted above? I hope it took you mind off of your situation even though for only a couple moments. I do really feel for you and your situation. Let me blather on a bit here.

I do not think it is a good idea to sell items that have allot of sentimental value to you. As you know, they can bring you allot of satisfaction and comfort in the future, if they are already not doing this for you now. Like your wedding ring. Once they are sold, they are gone forever. This would be not good at all. Irreplaceable. As far as this pertains to me, I think in the end when I am very old as I sit there in front of my TV in my one room Section 8 apartment, all I will have left of value are memories, and better yet, the people I can find to share them with. I think this is called wistful thinking. Perhaps with a little self-pity thrown in. Fortunately you will have your husband to share your memories with. You will get there. You and your family will survive to live a much better life.

Anyway, my next post will be on topic.

PS Do you use running shoes or sneakers for running?
