Well, I still need things done to the house and I need more dinero to do those things, so I followed up on a mailer and got a loan at CitiFinancial at 27% interest....WHEW that's high !! I can pay it early and not pay that interest, but for now, it was my only option. I'm going to use some of the money to pay down on two other loans, and use $1000 to get a roll shutter for my back patio door. Get a backyard sprinkler system installed too. And get a quote on a whole-house water softening system. Nuff fer now......
