The Hobbit Hole XIX - Tomorrow we may come this way...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 01/27/2005 9:59:05 AM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Tomorrow we may come this way...

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Congratulations! We have done the same (debt free) courtesy of tax returns.

Next year won't be so hefty though.

still, its a good feeling.

Isn't there a requirement to reinvest proceeds? I forget the time period, but I thought the qualification was that it was a.) a residence (as you addressed) and b.) the proceeds roll into another residence of equal or greater value.

Or... I could be way off. I had the misfortune of taking Tax accounting in 1985... then the 86 code wiped it all out.

Nope, not if you meet the exclusion requirements I gave above. I think the reinvestment rules may come into play if the property you sell *isn't* your home, though.

You could be nice and bake some cookies and throw them in the garbage for the trashman next week.
