Money
Believe me when I say that its taking
the work of a small village to get mom and I completely relocated to Boston.
The past couple of weeks have been nonstop discussions about the type of house,
the particular neighborhood, price range, LLC’s, IRA’s, trust management and
investments. The process has blown me away and I have been learning so many
things.
I spent the better part of this past
weekend going over real estate listing and financial agreements for my mother.
I was informed that my name is going on the title to the house and the reality
of that is slowly settling in,. It is her way of making sure that I will be
okay. I will never be able to show my appreciation. I really am incredibly blessed.
Real Estate
The demographic charting of Boston
proper is taking some getting used to. So far, we have decided on a
triple-decker Colonial in the neighborhood of Mission Hill. There is no
shortage of Colonial homes in Boston so now it is all about finding the right
house.
Friends
Joey, Kevin and Mark have been very
involved. They have all actively reached out to their contacts and the
proverbial wheels are rolling. As I sit here and think about what everyone is
doing, it really warms my heart. Each of them is accomplished in different ways
and they have such a vast amount of experience when you connect their
professional contacts and combine their knowledge. It gives me a great feeling
of security that everything will work out as it should.
Dreams
As I was studying the various maps and
property listings, I immediately began to day dream. There is something about
the New England architecture, and the streets that I am drawn into. The Google
Earth views are beautiful and I began to see myself there. I can’t remember the
last time that I envisioned myself in something other than orange. I saw a clear
view of myself running down a chilly New England street at dawn with a Doberman
pinscher by my side. The entire thing was comforting to me and I became
emotional. It was the first time in a very long time that I felt as though I
could actually breath.
I am going to be just fine
