I want to sell both houses, offload the rental, sell the main home and that will free up $ to pay capital gains tax which will be due on the rental. Tax man loves to take his bite. Big bite, but will have to be split between the 2 of us. Rough calculation I think will be about $18k each, hopefully I’ve over calculated.
Dentist found the need for one small filling and after I have some more scans of my jaw and teeth will look at doing Invisalign. She says mine are not that bad and should be aligned within 12 months and they have a payment plan where it can be paid monthly and not in a lump sum. Depending on the final quote, I’m at present inclined to go for it. She also suggested I whiten my teeth, not sure about this, the colour they are is natural and the white everyone has is not? Will have to ponder that one, but if I do it will be after the Invisalign.

Well this was a surprise. Yesterday I was approached to take on a seconded role for 6 months. Area HR Business Partner. I did say I’ve been out of HR for 5 years although I have kept up to date. They are impressed wth my work ethic and the skills I have demonstrated in my current role and believe I will carry them forward. So anyway, I accepted and will likely start Feb 1st. It will mean an increase in salary for 6 months, give me the chance to see how I go working full time and if I have the passion to enter HR work permanently again. My role Injury Mgt Consultant still remains uncertain so this comes at a good time for me. Plus I could do wth the extra money. And believe me, I will be making savings so I can pay off my share of the capital gains tax after the sale of the rental.
X-ray booked for jaw on Monday, and I hope to see the dentist again by the end of the week. I’ve decided if the Invisalign is possible, I’m going to do it.

Pam,
That's a terrific opportunity and at a time when most needed. How is your bending issues coming along? I know this was a big concern for you. |

I hope to start my hydrotherapy rehab next week. At the very least working full time will force me to go in the evening so the nights won’t seem so lonely. Bending is and will be an issue for ever, so I’m working on squats. Not easy but better than bending. I’m down to 1x Targin 20/10 a day for pain, and if necessary 5mg Endone for breakthrough. Was supposed to be 10mg but I asked for 5mg at the GP yesterday. The less I take the better when I’m working. I don’t like the feeling of not being in full control of what I might say. I’ve been known to inadvertently “overshare” after taking Oxy, and that’s not a good thing in the HR world. So in the main, I just suck it up.

Pam,
"Where there's a will; there is a way". That phrase was coined for a person like you. You have yourself covered with the rehab and have a full plan for the "no bend" issue with the squats . Tirating down on the pain meds is really a plus too. The HR has seen enough to have faith in your capabilities. As you may recall in the past; I have posted..."you are amazing". Now again.... Pam, you still continue to amaze me. Gerry |

Had the X-ray yesterday for my jaw /teeth, I will have to pick up the scans this afternoon and take to the dentist. Annoyingly the clinic doesn’t accept courier deliveries so radiology can’t deliver them as they do with most surgeries / clinics across the city. The scans are to see if my teeth will be suited to Invisalign. Now that I’ve had them done, I just want to get on with it. I’m annoyed with myself for delaying this. I should have done this 2 years ago when I noticed the top 2 canine (oops I’ve been calling them my inscisor) teeth turning inwards.

Pam,
You mention you should have done this 2 years ago. I think you were not focusing on Pam at that time; now you are. I'm glad you are taking care of these things making you feel better about your self as well. |
