    341 Tomorrow and I know I won't sleep tonite...

    Hi everyone,

    I've just got the usual night before 341 jitters. I have insomnia usually so this will just make it a little bit worse. I thought that posting might give me a little bit of last minute therapy.

    For those of you who read my other post, our sister did get us something regarding our late mother's estate so we won't be showing up empty handed. I'm bringing a very thin folder of the stuff my attorney wanted like, the post bk credit counseling and budgeting class certificates, paystubs from my summer job, the bk notice that tells us where to be and when.

    We double checked that we had our DLs and SS cards. I have a small empty notebook in case we have any action items. Balanced our checkbook and made sure bills up to now are paid. (that's more for us than them) We had opened a new checking account with the same bank (we have no credit through them) but we wanted any creditors who had our bank account info to be thwarted if they tried a surprise garnishment. So we brought the statement from the old checking account with the closed statement on it.

    Gosh I'm sorry I'm rambling, our finances overwhelm me and even though they are much more manageable now I still have a hard time with getting into a good routine for paying bills, budgeting, saving. In particular it's budget forecasting that is tough because prices of gas and food are changing so rapidly. It doesn't help that I have ADHD so I have to have very strict regimens for things that I want to assure the success of.

    A tiny example of that is my keys have to be in the same place when I get home no matter what or I will spend hours searching for them.

    Well thanks for letting me ramble on. I'll check for replies in the morning. and give a summary of events in the afternoon/evening.

    Good luck to everyone who is getting their 341s this month there seem to be a lot.

    Glad to hear your sister came through for you. Good luck tommorow, but you wont need it! youll be fine. I think if you get there early you can go file your education forms if you havent already (or is it supposed to be after?)
    Not only am I not a lawyer, the California BAR association has sent me numerous letters telling me not to even THINK about going to law school. In fact, the lay advice I provide is not even good. In the end remember, you get what you pay for, and here in BK land were not the best at paying.

        Trust me, you don't have to have ADHD to have this issue with keys!!! My best nightmare scenario with keys involves one of those [damnable detachable with a button] keyrings so that you can hand the ignition key to the mechanic and keep the rest. Right? It was 1996, and I was helping with mooring lines for Texas' Tall Ship ELISSA. My car keys were in my pocket, as were my tissues for my allergies. Long story short; my ignition key to my car landed in Galveston Bay, and I didn't know it until I went back to the car to drive back to Houston! Major melt-down enused from there. And that is all I will say about that!!

            Hi there! I am in the post-night-b4-the 341-night now, my 341 was today, and last night I was right there with you!! Everything will be fine--you will post tomorrow and let us know all is well! And I think double-checking is a great idea--I had gone to the ss office to get a duplicate of my ss card about a month before we filed since I couldn't find mine (of course, we just moved, and as I was unpacking I came across a VERY old purse, and sure enough, that's where my original was, so now I have two However, as we were pulling away from our house today, taking our kids to the kidzone while we went to the 341, about 4 blocks from our house I casually asked my dh if he had HIS ss card (and trust me, he is Mr. Organized/Prepared..) and he was like Holy Cow!! He realized he'd meant to put it in his wallet this morning and didn't, so we back-tracked big time so he could grab it... thank goodness I'd asked that question in time--we did see another couple who had forgotten theirs and was going to have to come back !! So good for you for being SO PREPARED !!!!! Let us know how it all goes..good luck!!

                      Thank you all so much for your support!!

                      Our 341 went off today without much of a hitch, we had to clarify two payments made to creditors (both under $600) so no issue there and the possible inheritance is of no big concern either. Our attorney said that we will probably discharge and close normally they just retain the rights to that particular inheritance.

                      We also signed our re-affirmations which is supposedly required in VT now at least if you want to keep your cars.

                      So I guess we are in the 60 day club now

                          Hi- quick question on the trustee keeping the rights to the inheritance...how long do they keep rights to that?

                            Congratulations!!! You are a member of the 60 Day Club. Hopefully, the Trustee will *forget* about the inheritance.
