One
of the advantages of publishing our Blog early last night was
getting to bed early. That gave us both a solid night’s sleep that
had us both awake shortly after 7:00 this morning.
Even
though there was plenty of Cloud cover when we first looked at
The Weather Network it was
surprising to see that the temperature had already risen to 43 F
(6 C) by 9:00 this morning. We spent only part of the
morning getting caught up on our reading.
One
of the things we do is to monitor our Bank and Credit
Activity which a lot of people fail to do. We also keep our
Receipts and enter them on a Spreadsheet so we know where
our money is going. While checking those accounts this morning we
noticed something that didn’t quite add up so I had to call. Once
it was established that I was who I claimed to be Amy informed me
there had been Suspicious Activity
that had occurred and there was a new card in the Mail.
Kathy’s card was not affected because when we are together I pay
for the purchases.
For
lunch Kathy recreated some of the Leftover Meat Sauce from
last night’s supper to make Sloppy Joe Sandwiches. We also
ate the Leftover Chocolate Cream Pie she made yesterday. It
was all tasty and satisfying.
I
called VitalAire to see if
Kathy’s new CPAP Mask had arrived yet. They still have no
idea on it’s delivery date.
Back
to the Computers we double checked all our accounts making
certain they tallied with our Spreadsheet. Things are tight
enough that we don’t need some thief’s help at spending our hard
earned cash.

Kathy
found something else she needed to look into while at the same time I
had more data entries to make on another Spreadsheet that I
use for our Blog. Before I knew it Kathy had made Beef
Stroganoff using up the last of the Meat Sauce from
last night’s supper. Of course we shared a Clementine Orange,
had Apple Sauce Cups and some Tea Biscuits for
dessert.
We
watched the 6 o’clock Local News
where the local Weather Guesser said Windsor
was the Hot Spot for Canada
today having reached 52 F (11C). We also watched an
episode of Law and Order before
muting the television for a bit. As stated before we are trying to
learn what takes place in the US
political arena so we surfed between a few channels covering the
Pre-Super Tuesday Election going ons. It really is amazing how
the different channels have different takes on the same Candidates.
May the best person win is all we can say.
Tomorrow
there’s plenty to do so we’ll keep you informed. Thank
you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.
Be
Safe and Enjoy!
It’s
about time.

Five years ago I decided to go paperless on everything from bank statements to all our utilities and credit cards. Though I agree one needs to keep up with everything that is charged.
ReplyDeleteI always ask for a receipt and though I wish I was able to keep up with posting to worksheets I do not have the software to do so...I, therefore, relly on my handwritten spreadsheets as I like to know where my money goes.
Tomorrow is an important day as it is Super Tuesday and I hope my fellow Texans show up at the polls!
I always check my accounts, but have only once been stung. You do seem to have more than your fair share of bank problems.
ReplyDeleteHope your sort out this suspicious activity, we have monitored our credit for years now. Highly recommend it. And yay, rednecks are back... :D
ReplyDeleteI started a spread sheet of income and expenses when we went fulltime in 2010. I continue now even thought we don't even own an RV anymore. I like to know where our money goes. Seems that you do too.
ReplyDeleteI don't use a spreadsheet anymore for income and expenses but do use Quicken to log everything. Been doing it since I retired in 2007. I've never had a problem with suspicious activity, knock on wood. Glad the weather is getting warmer.
