Well, it looks like my contract here is not going to be renewed, since the manager is taking the team in a different direction and no longer need a copywriter/storyteller. Negotiations were yesterday with my agency and the company. I got rave reviews from everyone.

Too bad I'm good at things they don't need, and I want nothing to do with where they are going. (Direct sales.)

Got the plumber scheduled to take out the old, falling apart, 50-year old pipes, and replace them with new stuff next week. That'll be $3k.

Starting negotiations with gardeners to build out the new back yard design. Probably going to be $10, all told. But needs to be done before we host the Rehearsal Dinner the night before our wedding, on July 9th.

Meeting with the clothing designer to make my wedding get-up. Old friend who used to be a man and now is a dead sexy woman. Should be interesting. And costly. (Guessing $700 or so.)

But, the wife now owns her home 100%, so getting a loan for all this isn't gonna be a problem.

Paying for it will be. If I don't have a job. So... yeah.

I'm thinking about money right now. A lot.
