Here we go, again :(
Called UPS and got someone I could barely understand. has UPS sent their Customer Service section to India? Had a tough time explaining to the young lady that this is the third or fourth time in three months that UPS could not find my house.
She then tried several times to convince me that I needed to go to the UPS warehouse and pick the package up. I spent as much time trying to explain to her that I cannot do that as I do not have a car nor a way to get there!
Finally she took my cell phone number and information. Now I am waiting for the local company person to call me so I can explain (again) how they can find this house.
This computer purchase has gone well beyond the purchase from Hell! This had better be a damned good computer!

No Surprise Here
At approximately 8:30 this morning the computer left the UPS center for delivery. It is now 6:30 in the evening and no UPS delivery person has been here.
According to the UPS website they package is still "out for delivery". To where, UPS? Timbuktu?
I fear that it will not be arriving at my house any time soon. They can't find my house in the bright sunshine I doubt that they will be able to find my house now that it is dark. And to make things worse, the porch light is burned out.
I think I am going to start asking people I buy things from if they can use the US Postal Service. At least when they don't wish to deliver things to my house they leave me a note in my mailbox saying go and pick it up at the post office.

Pay Day Advances
Life can be tough at times, we all know that too well. Too many bills and not enough paycheck. No matter how much you make seems like we all wish payday would come around quicker.
Bills are due when they are due, not when you have a payday. Often bills, especially utility bills, are not due on the first of the month but rather towards the end of the month. Not sure why that is, maybe Edison and the Gas Company pay their people at the end of the month.
Sometimes you find something that you really want or need and it is on sale but the sale will be long gone by the time your payday rolls around. Times like this have been agonizing in the past but they do not have to be agonizing any more. Payday is a week away? No problem! Just get a payday advance and purchase the item on sale or pay that bill that looms over your head.
Is it expensive to borrow this way? Not really. Here is an example I found on the website:
The cost depends on the state in which you reside. For example, in Utah a $100.00 loan due back in two weeks would cost you $17.00
Sure, you could probably borrow that one hundred dollars from a friend and skip the seventeen extra, providing of course that your friends are not all in the same boat as you are, living from payday to payday. What are the odds of that? Slim to none I'm sure.
The service is out there, take advantage of it. You can even apply for a loan over the phone, just call (866)294-4672 and get started. The process is quick and easy either way that you do it, website or telephone.
Why wait for payday if you truly need some extra cash right away?

Here we go again
It is Tuesday, just after 11 o'clock in the morning. The UPS drivers have been up and running for several hours now.
Have they been to my house with their package? Of course not! Wonder what their excuses will be this time? Can't find the house? Left the package on someone elses porch?
Maybe they will do the right thing and call my cell phone so that I can give them directions to my house behind a house. Nah, that would be sensible.

Impossible
The holiday season is fast approaching and most of us are now seriously beginning to think about the gifts that we need to purchase for family and friends. Most often that is a simple enough process because we know what they have, what they want or what they need.
I think we all know someone though that it always seems impossible to buy for. If they want or need something they just go and buy it. When you ask them what they want for Christmas (or their birthday) they are at a loss for words.
This is where online gift cards can come to the rescue. Giving that hard to shop for person a gift card might seem a little tacky at first but think of this before you shake your head no. How many times have you bought this person a gift only to discover later that they had returned your gift and bought something else with the money? Which is tackier, them returning your well thought out gift or you simply getting them a gift card so they can buy whatever it is they want?
And, if you like the idea of these gift cards, you can always buy one for yourself. Use it the same as a pre-paid credit card and shop safely online for yourself. No need to worry about giving out your credit card information online, as the gift card will have a specific value and no more.
Check out the cards that are available and the stores that you can use them in. Give that impossible person a gift they will truly enjoy getting!

What A Night
Not the Four Seasons hit song, just a thought of what a night. In fact, what a terrible night! The only blessing is that it finally ended.
It started off with coughing fits. Something appeared to be stuck in my throat and it wouldn't shake itself loose. I tried eating a piece of bread, drinking plain ordinary water instead of coffee, I even tried gargling with warm salt water. Nothing worked.
I took some Tylenol PM and headed for bed and sleep. The coughing had subsided and I thought the worst was over. Wrong!
I managed to sleep for a few minutes when I was awakened by the cough again. This time there was no stopping it. It just went on and on and on. And it managed to disrupt the rest of my body's systems.
I won't go into terribly sickening details here, just suffice it to say that at one point I was using both the toilet and the waste can in the bathroom, at the same time. Even that didn't slow things down.
All that happened was now I was coughing like crazy and shivering as well. Even under two very heavy blankets and laying beside a nice warm puppy I was shivering. I was constantly in and back out of the bed. I feel sorry for my lovely wife, I have no clue how she managed to get any sleep with me doing this.
Finally the coughing slowed down and I managed to drift off to sleep. Suddenly I was awakened by a noise. It was my wife's alarm clock which I rarely ever hear. The night of torture was seemingly never going to end for me.
It was 9 a.m. and a few minutes later I finally managed to go to sleep. All of my dreams had to do with body parts so I can only imagine that I was hurting from all that coughing.
My wife let me sleep until around 3 in the afternoon, bless her soul. I was awake when she came into the room but was afraid to move enough to get up. Head to toe seemed to hurt. Even my hernia hurt!
It has been almost three hours since I got up and I am still feeling aches and pains everywhere. I am not coughing as much as I was last night so I am thankful for that. I do cough from time to time but that seems to be my normal cough.
If I never go through another night like last night it will be more than fine by me.
