Kid purchased new car and dealer had car tagged, etc. in the wrong state, and charged him taxes for the wrong state (significantly higher). Complicated because kid has license from state they tagged car in.
Kid told dealer multiple times it should be the cheaper state, and dealer assured kid it was. Of course now itās all screwed up and kid (likely with help from mom) has to figure out how to fix it. If you look at info. received from dealer, it certainly looks like it was done for the correct state. But, thereās an area that says state to be titled in, and the two letters in that area were never noticed by kid (I wouldnāt have noticed either). What a cluster.
My mother died last September. I think that tomorrow weāll finally have the title transferred to her car, the only thing that needed to be transferred! (no house, Iām on all the bank accounts, CDs transfer under POD)
Itās been nothing but a pain. I screwed up entering the odometer on the title so we needed a replacement title. We didnāt realize my sister had a POA and thought we were going to have to probate the estate. Sheās ever so busy teaching school and since October hasnāt had one second to work on this (but sheās the executor listed in the Will and on the POA). We went to DMV on Monday and there was ONE MORE form that needed to be done and that had to be notarized so she got that done today. I got the insurance into my name and went to the emissions place for testing (why is it always 100 degree when I have to go there and the place is a black top nightmare you have to sit in a line for an hour).
The insurance has been NO HELP at all for this. I have the same company as my mother and they wouldnāt transfer the car to my policy or add me to hers but today, suddenly, they would. Oh, but they wonāt cancel hers until she calls in. Sheās DEAD you idiots. and weāve sent you the death certificate, the will, the title to the car and whatever else youāve asked for) Oh, then they had to put me on hold to see if this was all okay (sorry I even asked about cancelling my motherās policy) after they just said it was. I asked how it was any different than if I were buying a car from Joe Schmoe, as I just wanted to add a car to my policy so I can get it registered. I believe the next payment for HER policy is July 17,so Iāll have to close the bank account by then.
As soon as this is fixed, Iām going to change insurance companies.
Noā¦Iām not paying $50 for three months of the newspaper for only two days a week with digital access everyday. Good thing you decided to give me the July 4 special $17.76 for the year!
I paid you idiots twice in Mayā¦I shouldnāt have had to pay youā¦.at all.

Just once could you try and understand my point of view and drop the passive aggressive thing. A āIām sorry ā would have gone a long ways.

Do you have any clue how much stress you caused our family? How about staying in your lane from now on. Youāre not the MD and should not be playing one. You implied that you were acting on orders, but clearly not, and you are not qualified to interpret those tests. The surgeon was not happy, but he wasnāt nearly as angry as I am.

You couldnāt make it to her graduation dinner the night of graduation and you said you would take her out later, but it has been 5 weeks and she only has 5 weeks before she is going. This is not a parent I am speaking about, but still family. I am so done with these people. She has been done with them for a long time and expects nothing.
Be calm - five minutes ago you had a problem - now you have two possible solutions and you are having a panic attach

So the Savannah heat sucked (glasses fogged up the second I walked outside) but I had a wonderful time with my sister and dad. It was hard to see my dad struggle. He used a walker but probably should have been in a wheelchair. He is such a trooper!

Idiots. If you donāt see the value in what youāre getting, you are idiots and deserve to continue to underperform. But not my

As I was driving to work this morning I heard āI am I saidā by Neil Diamond.
It starts out this way.
L. A.'s fine the sun shines most the time
And the feelin' is laid back
Palm trees grow and rents are low
Have times changed a little bit?

Iāve been working on a quilt and Iām almost done. Three of the nine blocks need some things like buttons, beads, an applique, so I separated those, grabbed them and my laptop, phone and two glasses that needed to go to the kitchen. I went upstairs, dropped my laptop on a chair and went to the kitchen (very small house, just feet from the chair.
I was heading out to the store and couldnāt find the blocks. Oh, must have left them downstairs. No. Looked all around the chair Iād dropped them in. No. Looked under the chair, coach, looked to see if Iād tucked them into the laptop, put them in the papers that were on the table, if the fan had blown them across the room. No. Looked through all the baskets on the sewing table, on the floor, in a bathroom, by the washing machine. No. I looked in the kitchen, opened every drawer Iād opened when getting lunch. Looked in the trash cans. Nothing. I was going crazy. Two hour later, TWO HOURS, I found them in the freezer.
I had opened it and something was stuck, so I must have had them in my hand and set them on top of the lower section while I unjammed the upper and then just closed the whole drawer and didnāt notice theyād slipped down.
Blocks nice and cold.

My younger son is a very astute UFC fan. He told me he helped his teammate at school make thousands betting on UFC this year. I am not a MMA fan at all. Iām a traditional boxing fan. Tonight there was a UFC event, so I watched it with him. I have an online betting app, so he told me to bet that the main event would end in the 2nd round. A $5 bet would have paid out $42.50. Instead of $5 I accidentally bet $50. Sure enough, it ended early in the 2nd round and I won $425.
