So there are multiple other areas of my life that need attention as well:

• My house needs a LOT of renovation.
• The roof needs to be replaced; it may be the original roof from when the house was built in 1954! But I don't have the money to get a new roof.
• I need to find a career that fits me... at 50. I was a teacher for years, but teaching never works out for me. I was also a real estate agent for years, but I don't really think I want to go back to that either.  So I'm working as a customer service agent until I figure out a career that's a good fit.
• I need to save for my retirement, and figure out how retirement finances work.
• I need to learn how to address my stock investments (the one or two that I have, anyway).
• My house has an attached apartment, and I'd like to get it fixed up so it can be used-- whether rented, or for charity, or just for occasional guests.
• My cholesterol and blood pressure are high, and I want to reduce them naturally. (Yes, I take BP meds.)
• I have an unemployment compensation legal problem, so I need to take care of that.
• I need a bunch of dental procedures done, and don't have the money to pay for them.
• I have a room full of teaching materials, and no more need for them.
• I need to buy homeowners' insurance.

I'm sure there's a lot more. Basically, I need to grow up at 50.
