And at some point, Medicaid if assets are low enough. Please investigate that before you tap home equity, especially if you're married. In Illinois a spouse has the ability to reside in the home while the other spouse is in a nursing facilty, so check your state's rules.
We appreciate your willingness to serve...and educate! I have faith all of us HD diehards will behave so you have an easy job. We have something in common already--I worked at KPMG back when there were "The BIG EIGHT" firms. Yes, I am dating myself. PS I'll buy you your favorite beverage if you're ever in the far western suburbs--we're fortunate to be able to choose either the Aurora or LaFox stations for Chicago-bound trains!
Dear Elaine, Hannah, Henry, June, Nicholas, and Andrew,
We loved your beloved Jonathan. May he rest in peace & may his memory always be a blessing. We are grateful he embraced us.
Jonathan, you're often in our thoughts and your input is greatly missed. Take good care of yourself and tap those pleasures that provide comfort and bring you joy.
Sending hugs to Elaine, too.
xo, Stacey
Frugality is in my bones as much as the often maligned traits of an accountant. I don't even need to make it a game to be fun. I save there so I can spend here, here being great meals in (or out) with family, hosting parties in our home for friends, and of course my 6th love, behind the husband, sons, and dog--TRAVEL!
To each his/her/their own. And all should try using the library and public transport, it's pretty easy to do, plus it's a wonderful way to mingle with humanity.

Thanks for making me feel like I was there. We hosted our son's engagement party Saturday night, otherwise I would have loved to have met everyone.
