So, it turns out that we are all "stupid"

I guess it runs in the family.... of course I am just including me and no offense to you Cathy, who probably is at this very moment shaking her head??? I have very many stupid moments, but I don't tell anyone - and although I commiserate with you totally Patty, about your horrible day, I am reassured in some way, to know that I am not alone in experiencing this same feeling, on occasion of course! As I trudge through my daily activities, I often wonder why it has to be so hard to have one thing actually go right for a change? I think you are very wise to retain the geek squad and I wish ( oh how I wish!) that we had something of a similar nature that I could engage as well. There is likely such a service but I certainly could not have anyone come into the house to sort out the computer woes when they occur.  I continue to read my daily inspirational calendar pages, and as I mentioned once before, I think it somehow sees my life and then writes about it - the parallels are too coincidental! It gives me a good laugh every morning as I turn another page! I shall miss this calendar when the year ends.
On another note, do you remember about me telling you of finding two duvets in the garbage dump? We went up to Sears today and purchased two duvet covers. They had a 50% sale of select linens and so we had a chance to purchase the covers we had wanted in order to use these lovely blankets. Even at 50% off though, the cost was breath taking and as I handed over my plastic card to pay, I had to think about how easily we will spend with credit. I try so hard to use cash whenever I can as I have a sense of "here it is", and I won't have to pay it off later, or wonder where I will get the money to pay it off later!! So tonight we sleep under goose down duvets. Hope it makes a difference haha.
Tonight I shall be winning the Lotto Max (or so I have decided) so shall go to bed and plan my spending spree. I finished the borrowed novel last night and returned it to the Library today and thus have no book on the go right now - and plan not to start a new one for tonight. I should really make an appt to see the eye specialist again as my eyes are very bothersome. I think about you having your surgery Patty and think that maybe I should pursue the same for me. I did however, make an appt to see the Doctor( annual visit) and also the dentist - I had cancelled my annual dentist appt in April and never  rescheduled until now. I want to get it done before April next year - this is when I lose my benefits that I have enjoyed since retiring from the Hospital - I got a Management package that patially covered me until 65. Harry has benefits with Great West through OPSEU so I guess I shall have to attached myself to that. Have a peaceful weekend, and take care.
