Hey Paul and everyone reading
I really do appreciate the forums here so much, everyone.
I have good news! ... (I'll keep the yuck & other news to my thread lol)
I got a call from my Super fund this afternoon and they were really really nice to me about my application for release of some of my Super money.
They APPROVED it! The ATO already had but you just never know with these things. Not that I've done it before except for Family Law.
It's going to take another 5 - 10 business days, hoping all goes well in that time lol.
For whatever unknown reasons I felt guilty about taking it out, hence didn't apply in the first round and only applied this late in the 2nd round.... then my friend made me feel so much better when she said, "it's OKAY you doing this! This will help stimulate the economy so it all helps others too".
It HAS helped relieve the anxiety I was feeling over finances, somewhat.
So I guess I use less resources in that case also.
My fiancee was straight up saying "It's YOUR money anyway so take it if you need it!"
So much common sense that man lol.
Yeah I'm still trying to convince myself.
It's done now.
It's good news.
My other great news is that my blind chicken is loving life in her new home in our shower recess lol... we have to take her out to shower but she's okay with that too, little darling.
My OTHER good news is that I was feeling like a shag on a rock at work.
I try to be positive and helpful at work but that attitude doesn't fit in with our work culture.
Then a couple of nice conversations happened today and even ONE colleague phoned me tonight! That made me happy. She said she'll miss me while I'm on leave.
I love reading everyone else's good news no matter how big or small!
I'm trying to stay mostly in the "staying well" section in the forums to help me through atm.
Love EM
