cornerofmadnessI had to do that legal paperwork with the credit counselors and their online test. Oh are they hearing about it. Not only did it keep crashing my system but it NEVER saved anything. It was supposed to save and let you come back but it didn't. How many times did i have to redo that? Grrr
Mom's not fairing any better. yesterday, The new fridge for the new kitchen won't fit up the stairs, in fact they don't even SELL ones small enough to fit unless they're the undercounter kind and who the hell wants that?
Today she and Dad got a new big HD TV...well you know how DISH Network keeps bragging on their HD capabilities and how they're SOOOO much better than cable? Well she called them today and subsequently nearly told them to come get their dish and shove it someplace tight and dark. Dish's HD is a) 6$ more which wouldn't be bad but you have to b) install and HD receiever, that's a few hundred, c) pay 20$ a month to USE that receiver (now you've nearly doubled your cost) d) sign up for another two years with huge penalities if you quit them and e) only has TWENTY-ONE channels. in spite of what that commerical says....most of them sports channels.
i'm not resetting my challenge limit with three days to go. Just look at me fly (with help from ELD)
