I'd like to know where my mail is. I had the post office do a hold mail while we were on vacation and its been two days since we are back and all that was in the mail was flyers and junk adressed to people who lived here 9 years ago. So where is my mail? Shoudn't it have been delivered the first day after the hold expired? I should have a $400 check in there from the insurance company and some overdue bills. Well, one likely. Anyway, I'm

You sure you want to get me started? Okay, here goes... It's dh's job again :P He agreed with a client to be present at their user testing in Pittsburg this week. Well, his corporate card doesn't work and so his boss was going to make the arrangements. Dh was supposed to be there on Tuesday and he didn't know whether or not he had a flight until Monday afternoon. Then he gets to Pittsburg and his card still doesn't work and our checking account is negative because he didn't get paid Monday as he was supposed to. So, he finds himself out of town with no money in our checking account, no functioning credit card, and no way to pay for his hotel!!! He called me in a panic and asked me to transfer money from our home equity line of credit to keep us afloat and give him money to pay for the hotel. Now, not only does he not get paid but we're supposed to finance business trips as well??!!! Dh has absolutely had it and has finally decided to start looking for another job for real. Ya think???!!! I've only been trying to get him to do that for 6 months!!!
Of course, in the middle of all of this, his boss is on his way to Ethiopia (strange how this always happens).

He did finally reach his boss who wired money from Ethiopia to cover the travel expenses which he should be able to pick up tomorrow - AFTER he has already paid for the hotel and the rental car out of his own pocket (which is pretty da*n empty since he's not getting paid). Supposedly payroll is being run next week. This whole mess is really taking a toll on our family. It's making me tense and has caused an increase in my blood pressure, resting heart rate, and my temper. I'm screaming at the kids about the littlest things, passing up social opportunities because we can't afford them, and eating really unhealthy food because it's all we can afford. Fortunately my mom paid for Megan's horse camps and we were able to get a line of credit to help us with some higher interest rate debt and the new washer and dryer and other emergencies.

Do you have to go to the post office to pick up your mail? Our post office will not restart deliveries until we pick up the mail after a hold. Just a thought.

The mail came yesterday. It was all neatly tied up with elastics and not a flyer in the bunch. Yippee.


Rasheita, I love your siggie and there is no way you should tolerate that kind of treatment from a Dr. She was obvsiously trying to get back at you for calling her on the carpet for her treatment of your DD last time. Good for you for standing up and hope you can find a better Dr. somewhere else.
