Okay so maybe I did after all.

Whoohoo!

Well, figure that every group has a crazed lunatic you just have to have the right perspective. Put it this way, one out of four friends is the ugly one. If you get together with three of your friends and look around and say " well, not one of them is ugly"......guess what.... So what were you saying about a crazed lunatic.

So what you're saying is if Im standing in a group of four...and as long as YOU'RE in the same group as me, I should be ok then, right?

REALY? WOW, come over and PM me. I would love to help you out, I will give you the same deal as Rhonda, Tina and Tungpo. Give me the link and I will put it on the page. No charge, just give me a link back on yours if you can. If you want to do something else, let me know.

Thanks for the hug. Sorry for venting, but I had screamed at so many people's voicemail (and one actually had the guts to call me back, but I missed her by about 10 minutes...oh, i will call back tomorrow!) that I just had to relieve my stress by typing. The appeal from the doctor's office was declined as well. They sent in all the dr's notes and therapist's notes, along with documentation of his progress, but they won't budge. I plan on taking this up with my local state representative and see what she can do, since I am a state employee and all...we will see what happens tomorrow...

As far as ebay goes, they can kiss my @zz. I have been reading on the tech news that ebay has mandated in Austrailia and the UK that all things (even ones that are picked up in person) that are bought on ebay must be paid for by paypal, which means ebay gets a cut of the listing, final sale,, and the transaction of the sale, so they tag you with three different fees for each sale...and the way they are treating their sellers (and not just me), I think they are going to be on a downturn in the coming years...there is going to be someone that comes out with the latest technology (like all live auctions) and send ebay to the grave...when that happens, i will be dancing in the streets!
When I first started on ebay, it was very profitable, lately, it has been very hard to break even.

I am going to advertise on RVUSA and different websites and DH promised that he is going to fix and update my 7 year old website for a reasonable fee...I don't know what computer part I am going to have to buy for this!

Thanks guys and gals for letting me vent. After watching one of my girls (who I had no one to replace her with) make 10 ERRORS in our last game last night, this is not what I needed today, but it is so nice to know I can vent with friends and hopefully they don't think I was whining about poor ol' me. I have been a basketcase all day.

I am going to fix myself a rum and coke now and read the rest of the boards!

Hopefully tomorrow will be better

Hoping for a better day tomorrow Jen. I used to buy/sell on Ebay and I rarely look nowadays. They think they rule the auction world. I know Yahoo has an auction site too but I doubt it gets looked at like Ebay. Wonder why no one else has opened an online auction site that's similar. I do craigslist now but I hear Ebay bought a big chunk of that too so I guess they'll put that in the crapper next.

I saw a court show(peoples court, or one of those type shows) where a man recieved an empty box in the mail from an ebay purchase. He purchased a cell phone for a sizable amount of money...dont remember exactly but it was well over $100, and he payed with paypal. Paypal claims to protect your purchase if a conplaint is made within 30 days of purchase. Paypal wouldnt do anything for him because the seller had proof that he mailed a package to the buyers address(delivery confirmation or insurance...whatever). So because the seller had proof that he sent a package to the purchaser(although it was an empty package) paypal let the purchaser hang in the wind.
The judge on the show made the seller repay the guy...and on top of that...reported him to the law for abusing the US MAIL system. If he had used UPS or FedEx, he wouldnt have been in trouble.

Just caught up reading through this thread. Sorry to hear about your problems. Hopefully things will get better.

Thanks Denise

Looks like Disney's been working on the online ressie system. I hadn't noticed this before, a couple of days ago anyway. But they've gotta a better looking wait screen while you're waiting for the system to look up room/site availability.

At least it's the first time I've noticed this:

Denise,

I've always used yahoo simply because it'll always be there no matter who my internet service provider is.

Cool, that just changed since last night when I looked up site availability!

Wasn't that the guy who sent him a PICTURE of the phone instead of the phone? Man, Judge Milan went all over that guy!

i like gmail, it filters out a lot of the spam

 

[Us3]

Jen, is your evening going (feeling) better?

 

[AuburnJen92]

Yes, thanks! The rum and coke is doing just fine. I even went a played a couple of songs on bass with DH and DS a couple of minutes ago. We will start the battle again tomorrow.

Hey, two good things happened today though....i got a letter in the mail that my homeowners' insurance overcharged me and is sending me $$ and the rv fixit guy came to my house (for a change) and fixed the wire run that fell down and was dangling on the ground and close the axel...he only charged me a hundred bucks and had to drive a good bit to get here and was here all morning...

 

[We4mickey]

Jen, I will join you in that drink if I may. I am so @#%#$@$ angry right now I could scream or cry. Which I did by the way, when my DH asked me if I got the promotion at work. I was supposed to be interviewed by our district manager today. She was at our store for 5 1/2 hours. Did she speak to me? NO, not once was it even brought up. She is an absolute idiot! I can't wait to talk to the manager at the other store. When he finds out nothing was done he is going to be as mad as I am. He was hoping I would be there in the next couple weeks.
