error | River's world…..

I was checking my bank account on my phone recently when something forced me to do a double take.

Yes, I’d transferred $2K to savings.

Yes, I had an Amazon order for $123.

But then…

Holy guacamole Batman!

Where’d that large deposit come from?

We have an investment account but not with this institution.

Private banking? Huh.

Did my husband squirrel money away under the mattress and suddenly decided to deposit it?

Were the backyard critters suddenly paying for their buffet?

Did WordPress monetize my blog and not tell me?

I had no clue, and since it was 9:00 at night there was no one to call to find out.

But alas the next morning when I woke up and checked my account… it was gone.

Disappeared like it was never there.

Data input error I’m sure, but damn… that would have made a nice little windfall if I could have withdrawn it quick enough.

😉

Danger Will Robinson!

There’s trouble in the man cave.

I walked into the barn this morning and noticed it was a wee bit nippy.

We keep the new heat pump ( 3 months old ) set at 68 and with all the sun coming through the windows… it’s always been warm and toasty. But today? The temperature was rapidly dropping.

Lights were flashing and the unit wasn’t running. After spending an extremely annoying half hour troubleshooting with the owners manual, we broke down and called the guy who installed it… who also happens to be the son of my best friend.

He had me check the error codes and did some research. Then he called back saying he didn’t have the parts he needed to repair it in stock, and couldn’t get them right away… so he was sending his crew over this afternoon to replace the whole exterior unit.
