skibigsky's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Financial Predictions (*heh) I haven't read anything in Time or Business Week (my two sources of news - don't watch TV news, or read newspapers), but I'm guessing from the number of 'free shipping upgrade' emails that I've received that the shopping numbers aren't quite what retailers were hoping for. Guess the housing crunch has already hit the retailers. If you are looking to refinance or sell, do it quick. If you are looking to buy, hold off for a few months (assuming you've got good credit); housing prices will drop. And that is my financial prediction for the day, brought to you by the junk mail that shows up in my email.... I've got buckets of salt, if you need it... That's about it. On other stuff? My V. has a fracture in his ankle; not clear as to how bad it is; we'll know tonight or tomorrow. He'll either be able to 'cast' himself in a ski boot, or not. We'll see. I've started x-country skiing, and I suck beyond words, but because I suck, I'm working really hard to get through 8-9km, and working hard converts to burning calories, no matter the technique, right?!? Haven't been back on alpine skis yet, but will probably venture out on Wednesday. Will likely free ski with the coaches, and possibly will run gates. Not sure if I'll race this season. I see the doctor on Wednesday; will definitely talk to her about the depression. I'm feeling adrift, and I don't know what to do. 5:58 p.m. - 17 December 2007 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
