The first scraping of ice from the car this winter season. First glass of soda in two weeks. Something full of firsts today.

For my birthday/Xmas gift, my daughters gave me a reliable secondhand laptop. The one I have been working on had Windows 7 and it was very slow. The newer laptop has Windows 10 and pages load a lot faster. Two thumbs up for having great kids.

Today we got first snow this year! And it lasted for entire day. Now it is already melted but there are good chances for new one tommorow.

Working on my new secondhand laptop and getting a lot more done because the system is much faster.
Woo Hoo!

It's cloudy Thursday morning here. It's 6:51 AM here and my day has just started. I finished cooking and few chores. I will go for a quick 25 minutes walk and then get ready for work. I have to leave by 8:20. I hope for a good day ahead.

Listening to world news and trying to get into the holiday spirit.

This past Tuesday evening has been awful. Financially unreal.

I have saved up money for a new cellular phone.

I went to the store with my roommates.

I wanted a new AT&T like my present phone. The store's website said that they have 20 AT&T Alcatel Volta prepaid in stock.

When I got there, the clerk said that they only have 1.

So, she grabbed the phone and a pre-paid phone card to the cashier line.

The phone scanned but the phone card would not. The card rang up a gift card. So, the manager told me to buy the phone while she went to find another phone card.

That card would not work.

So, she needed my debit card to refund my debit card.

Later on, I decided to check my checking account online. The phone was not refunded. By then, the store was too late and closed.

Merry Christmas.

Sorry to hear that Spontaneo, have you contacted the store again about the refund?

[cmoneyspinner]

Found this that pays me to write K-drama reviews. I have been trying to write one a day. But it looks like I won't be able to publish one today.

Meanwhile, I'm listening to Christmas music.

End of this week. Just one more week and then and I have 2 weeks of vacation. I really need it since I am got flu last few days.

[nela13]

Not the best of my days, I have been feeling tired and with a headache, I think I need to sleep and rest a little bit more.

[Spontaneo]

Sorry to hear that Spontaneo, have you contacted the store again about the refund?

Thank you, Fergal.

The bank called me this morning to tell me that the money was refunded to my checking account.

I usually do alot of business at this store and am wondering if I should ever shop there again.

If it were not for an auto-pay occurring, I would have been more calm. But because of the auto-pay, the money had to be in there. Make sense?

Would you still shop there?

[Fergal]

Sounds like it was a genuine mistake on their part Spontaneo, glad to hear you got your money back and hopefully it was not something that will happen again.

It's been two weeks since I quit my weekend radio job, so I'm really enjoying being able to work remotely. Today I taught on and off through the day. I'll be doing the same tomorrow.

Can you imagine an auto-pay occurring though with no money in my checking account?

Otherwise, today, I had a lazy day today. This is evening throughout early morning I am going to work. I am going to accomplish cookbook reviews on toopa.com/weekendnotes.com, Q & A here on FC and see how I like Discussion Bucks.

My family physician was here this past Wednesday! He is so cute! The first that he never told me to watch my pasta and potatoes! Before he left, we gave each other a big hug.

[mrki444]

After few hours watching and try making some stuff in Angular JS project, I am very tired. Few stuff and I am going sleep.

[Angie10]

I taught two lessons and spent the rest of the day planning lessons for the coming week

[Spontaneo]

I accomplished a recipe article and a cookbook review.

The cookbook was really neat. All about preparing Starbucks drinks from home.

There are moments when the editor is prompt and others, she is not.

Let's pray that the 2 get published!

I love working from home. I just wish that I could earn more and earn consistently.
