Keep on the mend, Shali. I think one of the worst things about those "bugs" is the way they leave you feeling so dragged out. Takes several days sometimes to get any energy at all back. I hope your friend Duncan gets better soon.
 

Found out last week I am being sued by a bank that owns a charge company for a charge I was unable to pay because the payments got so high. They demanded the full amount of the bill and I did not have it then and do not have it now so they have taken me to court. I called their attorney to try and made some arrangements to make a payment I can afford and they told me that amount was not acceptable but that I could send it. I called back later and told them I would only send the amount I said if they stopped going through with the judgement and they told me they would not do that. I also asked them to stop adding interest and they wouldn't agree to that either. Well, I found out they cannot attach my bank account as I am on SSI. I don't have any property accept a really old car not worth much.

This charge company constantly sent me emails and mail with advertisements of specials to buy, constantly! I couldn't resist and spend quite a bit. Then they raised my credit limit a few times, too. So, I have a bill with them that I cannot pay. The only thing I am concerned about now is losing my old car. I really need it for doctors visits and visits to the Vets, too, and shopping. It gets really cold here and a person needs a car when doing things.

An attorney looked through public records and saw the lawsuit against me and offered to file bankruptcy for me, sent me a letter today. I haven't called him. I really don't have the money to that. Also don't know if he is legit. I know sometimes they are on a payment plan.
 
Rain squall passing thru my part of the Big Island. I was hoping to do a little yard work. Oh well. Yesterday I did go to the Buddhist Temple to light some incense and think a kind thought for the older brother of one of my high school classmates. He had just passed away. I never met him since he was a lot older than us, but, hey, may he rest in peace.

Yes, RIP. That temple sounds like a nice place.
 
Wow today has been so cold up here in Salt Lake City, Utah. But it sure is beautiful!! Wish I could still ski though. My knees and hips ache too much and I had a knee replacement last June. No more skiing for me. But I still go up to the mountains and watch the grand kiddos have fun. That makes me happy!

Hi Betty, I think the cold spell is hitting a lot of us in the country. It is in the 20s here in Ohio. It is lovely to look at the snow, yes. Do you have arthritis? Watching the little ones can be a lot of fun, yes! :)
 
Hi Ruthanne! Nice to meet you. Yes I have arthritis-- not too bad yet, but I do have it. Do you? Are you getting lots of snow in Ohio? We are getting hit big time tonight!

I have arthritis, too, yes, and really bad in my knee I think. We haven't been getting lots of snow but I wish we would get some. We had a tiny bit and it melted already. I bet that snow is pretty where you live. :) My computer is giving me some problems. It's nice to meet you, too, Betty!

A little under the weather the last couple days. First cold I've had in a couple years. Been in a some crowds lately and probably picked it up there.

Sorry you're not feeling well Pappy. Have you ever had whiskey in lemonade? My mom used to make that for sickness. I hope you'll feel better soon.
 
Pappy, sorry you're under the weather and hope you're getting lots of rest. It bothers me when I see people sneezing and coughing out in the open without even trying to cover it.
 
Thanks for your concern folks. A little better today. With my COPD, it takes a chest cold awhile to get rid of. Using all the little remedies I can think of. Honey and cinnamon, hot tea, my inhalers and nebulizer. I hate going out when I am sick. No need to spread this around anymore than I have to.

Oh yes you have to be very careful with COPD; you could get pneumonia easily.

It snowed here! Only a dusting, but the first snowfall in two years. Birds were checking out the plants on my balcony for food. Cats would like to go outside to eat them. Nope.

Hi Shali, we're getting snow right now! Do you like it? I think it's really pretty to watch from inside but don't like to drive in it.

I just heard that you are getting 30" of snow? Really? Please be careful if you have to go outside for anything.

It is pretty, and a rarity here. Eventually, we had four inches, but it is melting now. More cold weather on the horizon. I don't even have winter boots. I was wearing thongs/flip flops until the cold hit! Went to hospital thrift shop---high end clothes, bought a brand new heavy jacket lined with fleece for fifteen bucks! Rocking the grey and white plaid logger/lumberjack look now!

That's a good price for a heavy jacket! I bet it looks really nice. Well, you got a taste of snow, wonder if you will get any more.
