Plan B

I rolled up to the Post Office at 4:05pm on April 15th. In hand were two envelopes containing fairly large checks. I knew that when I sold my investment property on 19th Street last year there would be some tax implications, but not of this magnitude. 

I've cut so many things out of my life in an attempt to live simply that there aren't many more ways to trim the fat...yet now I am faced with this challenge. Learning to do without makes you more appreciative of what you have.  

People are resilient. You are resilient too, whether you believe it or not. Think about how many times in our lives we have been forced to come up with a "Plan B." Sometimes we have time to prepare for it in advance and other times it takes us by surprise, but we get by. We wake up and face each day just like we always have.
