susandennisIt was warm in here when I got back from the gym so I decided to cool it down with a bit of A/C. I grabbed the remote and pressed "Power" and nothing. What?? OH NO!! Fuck!!!! I don't think there is any other way to turn it on except the remote. I'm SCREWED!!! Then I filled the remote with fresh batteries and whew... I'm back in the cool saddle again. Man, that was frightening!

I use conditioner on my hair simply so I can get a comb through it when it's wet without pulling my hair out. Traditionally, I grab the cheapest thing on the shelf. Have for years.
But, last time I ran out, I bought Dove. Because, Dove has this fabulous ad campaign celebrating older women. I mean it is really a great campaign and it's more than just ads. And they are doing a great thing. So I bought Dove.
That stuff is GREAT! My hair feels wonderful all the time, not just for the first 20 minutes after I wash it. Wow. Next up is Dove deodorant and Dove soap. What a pleasant surprise.

I have a Citi Master Card that is relatively new. I use it when a place won't take my Discover Card - both cards pay money back and I like that. So earlier in the week, I made two electronic payments to my Citi card. One on Monday and on Tuesday. I had only made one other payment before and that payment took 1 day to show up on the Citi website. But these two payments weren't getting there. I gave them several days thinking they had maybe stopped for a beer on the way.
Finally today when they still weren't there, I figured I'd better make some calls. So I started with my credit union. As I'm gathering info, I discover that I paid the money to my Citi mortgage! and not the credit card. doh.
Whew. No harm the payment isn't due until next week so the new payment I made to the credit card today will be there in plenty of time. Then I adjusted my next mortgage payment for the difference. All is well.
Sometimes I think I'm a little too obsessive about my financial accounts. Today is not one of those times!!
