Oops, My Bad, AKA Check Was in the Mail

This is an update to a previous blog post. Well I was not getting a $500 rental supplement from the Federal Government, and was expecting it to be direct deposit. Turns out the feds had sent a check instead. Here is the issue, I went over the online form 3 times to make sure it was all correct. The default is to get direct deposit, and I DID NOT check the box that said pay by check. I had even phoned them and spent a good deal of time to get hold of them, and was told "it has been deposited in your account". Well, obviously not, as I ended up getting a check in the mail last night. So my bad on saying the bank was holding it up - but to be honest, I have had transfers take 3 or 4 days to clear in the past, and was expecting direct deposit, so it is obvious why I thought that. But on the bright side I got the money and am super grateful that I did receive it. It's too late to order a friend something I wanted to give them for Christmas, but it can be given after just as well - nothing expensive, just a token of thanks. It will also most likely be on my credit card on Thursday, so I can pick up my Christmas day booze (probably wine and maybe some craft beer). BTW the money is part of a very much needed plan to help low income people with inflation recently. It is not a great deal of money in the scheme of things, but it is helping a lot of people, so props to the feds for that, I'm certain if it was a conservative government, they would have just let us rot. Well, anyways, I hope you all have a happy holiday or had one, depending on when you read this.

My Day in Photos (ER Trip)

Image
It was a nice day to go to the hospital. Thought it might be something very bad that I had before, but it's spider bites (3). Back of the building - a fire exit from the basement to the right and to the left is the emergency generator. No idea what the pipes are for at the back of the building. Parking lot to the right, lawn that slopes down to the basement windows to the left. Fall risk label - if you are a fall risk, they flip this around so they can see if before entering the room you are put in in the ER. Hard to see, but there is a bone here, probably from a medium sized bird by the look of it. This is teaching your child the wrong thing. A discarded Childs mask outside the ER at the F.H. Wigmore Regional Hospital. Again, people are slobs, toss it in the trash, not on the bloody ground. It's not hard, you need to walk 30 feet back in and toss it in the trash. Kind of wonder how this happened. If it was hit by a car, the car was on the sidewalk. Just liked the shot. Basebal

A Dumb Scammer

Got a couple hundred of these in the spam folder. LOL. If you are running a scam, don't literally send hundreds of the same emails to the same people. Also don't send it to multiple people in the same email. Got to wonder how dumb they are.
