I have told him I love him many times. It's like when you go one step forward, things happen and we are pushed two steps back. We were in the midst of planning a huge event in our lives, but things messed up on my side (not of my doing) and I don't know where we stand now. The only thing I know is that he means the world to me, and I want to spend the rest of my life with him. *sigh*

FARK FARK FARK!!!!

Its been almost 6 months since my husband passed. We had set up his retirement so that I would get when that happened.

They got the paperwork February 13. Finally, got a letter that the deposit (including retroactive) would be on the 16th of July. Really?

Called today because of course, nothing was deposited, and guess which frickin' idiot left off the last motha frickin' digit so that the bank returned it????

Me, thats who.

So now the soonest they can re-issue is the 31st.

Thank all the Gods my husband believe in savings........even when it hurt. Otherwise I"d be in the street by now.

Farkity fark fark fark!!!!

Someone just farkin' shoot me now please.

Good rant DG, worthy of K! but I have a question: Is a frick the same as a fark?

Argggghh!!! {{HUGGGS}} not that they help much.

I'm having my own issues with my Ex not being able to afford the mortgage, which is in my name, so I have to pay it to avoid credit damage. I'll join you in the FARKity-ing.

Hang in there, grandma, even if it's beans and toast while you wait. Less than two weeks to go.

[desertgrandma]

frickin', farkin', farkity..........its all the same.

I know I should be grateful I will be okay..........but when I do really dumb things like that it makes me crazy.

Maybe I'm going thru the infamous 'anger' stage.

I'm angry it took them so long to take care of something that was taken care of years ago. Dots were signed, T's were crossed, all paperwork needed sent.

It actually sat on someones desk for one full month while they 'researched' a problem that they had corrected in 2005. No one bothered to call.....I had their letter!!

Again, I'm okay, but what about others out there that are living from paycheck to paycheck? How on earth do they survive?

BTW.........in case anyone wonders......Samsung makes an awesome phone.

When I thru it against the wall as hard as I could the battery popped out and the back came off..........but the stupid thing still works.

Wondering if the new IPhone I get in August when my contract is up will hold up as well.......

[desertgrandma]

BGD.........been there done that!!!

Your good credit is worthy of the trouble this is causing. At least its in YOUR name!!! Having a home these days is a comforting thing.......big hugs back and thanks!

Thanks for this board for allowing me to vent.

[WT Sharpe]

Sorry to hear of your financial woes, DesertGM, but glad to hear you have the savings to hold you over until everything gets straight.

But I noticed other bad news as well....

Looks like you'll be getting kicked out of your own club!

[desertgrandma]

Yes, if you look at my siggie.........you'll see I've turned into an Apple Wh!&*.

Not my fault, really.

The rest of my family has them, and I have succumbed to the lure.......Plus..........sorry to say, regardless of what your feelings about apple are..........their products are just 'intuitive'.......too darned easy to learn and play with.

Everything just works. But thats just me.

Off to update an old post.......and thanks so much for bringing that to my attention, not to mention the whole worlds!!

[dreams]

Aw, dg, sorry to hear about what happened. I hope it is resolved soon.

[desertgrandma]

Thanks dreams........everything will work out.

It always does.........

No no.........I haven't been around much. Haven't felt very sociable.

I have been so in control these last few months, accepting every lame ass excuse that was thrown at me at why something so simple was taking so long, trying to deal with everything else.

So.......when it finally happens, and there is a screw-up because it MY fault......I lost it. Totally.

However..........I"m much better now. I thank you ALL for your good wishes and support. Posting in this forum was a true blessing.

Throwing the phone was just icing on the cake. Just glad I was alone........

Throwing things always makes us feel better. I used to buy china plates at the Goodwill Store, 5 cents each, just to have something that I could throw and hear the sound of it smashing, without ruining any 'good' stuff. I'm happy to know that your problems will be worked out shortly.
