Hang in there hon.

Thank you, @lizardlady ...

I sat down and considered the three probable outcomes.

I still don't have much control over any of that, but ...

After reviewing those, I started working on a budget that can get me through the least favorable outcome.

I do have control over that, and then, if one of the other two options (especially the best one) pan out, I will be ahead of the game!

Again, appreciate your words of wisdom, encouragement & support!
