    The Fraud dept (the company all the credit cards use for suspicious purchases) called MY telephone last week asking for my husband and will only talk to him, not me. He called them back on Monday. Turns out someone was trying to open up a line of credit in my husbands business name :eek: . We've had our debit cards compromised several times over the last few years, so I always pick a call from the 855 # . Weird they called my phone though, idk, he doesn't pick up #'s he doesn't know because he's inundated all day from telemarketers spamming his business, maybe my # was a joint CC or something?

    Up for sale is the truck that belonged to my local hardware store. She's lightly used, I can vouch for that.

    In the paper today there is an article about an elderly man being beaten to death in the parking lot of a Walmart in southern NH. We have had several events at our local Walmart to include shootings. I don't know what it is, but it seems to be where the most bad events takes place at retail areas. I shop Walmart on line and I do curbside pickup, but that is my limit. I can't imagine what attracts those behaviors to Walmart. Like moths to light.

    That is a lot of truck. Shake the piggybank every time you drive it. I had one once. A lot more truck than I needed.

    Mainly because a goodly# of Walmart Shoppers are lost, confused and in the wrong parking lot. The mental hospitals need needs to be closer to the Walmart's.
    Walmart's are notorious for replacing the "FREAK SHOWS" in the old time carnivals.

    Great example of the difference. Churches probably have an "in" to local businesses to donate basic needs.

    There's times it'd come in handy, but I imagine she's thirsty. 5.4 too. Be better off with a 2011+.

    Ad doesn't even say how much he wants for her. She was replaced with a snub nose Isuzu.

    Mowing the grass (again) and afterwards cleaning up the garden where I made a fascinating discovery...a dinosaur!...at least that's what my 2 year old thinks it is.

    I like when it goes off over n over again for a completely different part of the county :picard:
    Nothing like waking the kids up and getting them all worried over nothing. (The flood prone parts of the county are at least 12 miles from here)

    Yeah, I had no clue where they were in regards to where the TA in Bloombury is located. Just didn’t need it going off every 20 minutes for 1 1/2 hours.

    Your both right where flooding and a alert every 20 minutes has a “sky is falling” effect

    we are having flash flood warnings. Everyone knows where to stay away from, or at least they should. Problem is when water comes a rushing where it never had before. I am high up on a hill. The ditches can wash out, but that is about as bad as it can get here. What concerns me is the ground is so saturated, all this rain has no where to else to go go it runs off. The Kennebec might just flood again, but so far there are no warnings for it.

    I started back up on the treadmill tonight for 20 minutes 21 seconds, 1 mile with 132 calories burned.
    My calorie intake was 1380 before the treadmill session, the total for today will be 1248. I would like a weight of 198 by 7/22/2023, this morning it was 199.6.

    Had a thunder shower between 3:00 and 4:00 this morning. I surely hope this unsettled weather leaves soon. My bet is that it is caused by the extreme heat so much of the country is getting.
