This morning I had an appointment for a health questionnaire before I can take out some kind of insurance to go alongside the new mortgage that will hopefully be in place soon. At some deep level I'm in agreement of what I understand to be the earliest forms of insurance. A community coming together to pay into a pot so those affected by something then has the means to be supported. However, it feels like somewhere along the profit making way, it's turned into something removed from that./ So I'm encouraged to pay monthly for a whole host of insurances based on a fear of the what ifs of the future.
I don't know what's going to happen and right now I don't want to spend time worrying about it, anways, I answered all the questions and will pay up the extra just cos I didn't get my act together and do this 4 days ago when it would have been cheaper, pre-birthday.
Last night was a better example of a community coming together to help provide for the unseeable. We raised £2000 in an auction of promises - I've not been to an event like that before and it was a joy to be part of. There was laughter and lots of goodwill, and I now have someone coming to help me make a bit of an inroad into my garden, which is good, as it's on the long mental list of things I'm not managing very well. And I did find a friend willing to trade my troubles for a banana juice :)
I was going to do a bit of work today to compensate for the fact that I'm going to another funeral on monday. But actually I need to do something uplifting today and away from here. Hopefully will find something and will share pics later :)
