Be aware certain claims with properties can have that property flagged in clue ….

It is a good idea when buying a house to have the seller run the clue report .otherwise if you buy a house flagged in clue for certain issues you may not either get insurance or you will be surcharged.

Certain flooding as an example or burglary claims can get you flagged and it isn’t even your claims doing it

Any time you have your insurer pay a claim on your car , even if they are going to collect from the other party , as long as that claim stays un reimbursed it dings you

Yes. There comes a time when we have to accept the limitations of aging. There comes a time when it's no longer a good idea to climb ladders, go on solo hikes in the woods, or drive old cars, for example.

But so far the eye drops are working and his vision is stable.
I'm beginning to think you did have a plan: Widowhood instead of divorce.

I had to drive back to the Bay Area anyway to pick up my RV from the repair shop. No other way to get there. And I really, really want it back. It makes life more bearable when I can go places and see new things, meet new people. If I have to go somewhere and I'm not feeling great, I just make the sofa into a bed and rest as long as I need. It is absolutely essential to me.

Until death do us part isn’t a marriage vow as much as a goal. Ha ha

Some people are better than others at discerning that. And then there are those who had frugality drilled into them from childhood by their Depression-era parents.
