Aww MCW. A big hug to you. I am sorry you are having a rough day and that you are not feeling well. I understand what it feels like to have a migraine as I get one of them at least two to three times a year. My Mom tells me that I need to find homeopathic ways of dealing with them before I resort to medicines and doctors. She seems to think that what I am ingesting is the cause of them.
I know what you mean when you find a nasty surprise of a bill. I had that three months ago when the IRS said I owed them for 2001, 2002, and 2003 because of stock options that I had sold and apparently not reporting my income accurately. I know I paid them but I didn’t keep good records until 2004 and so now I am feeling the pain. Maxed out credit card to pay the bills so I wouldn’t get hit with the IRS enormous penalties and interest. Hopefully your company that houses your car will allow you to pay it over monthly period instead of all at once.
I am sorry your Mom is going through a tough time with her health. Hope that things will get better for her.
Take a deep breath and Sylvester says he will let you hug him (although not for too long as he doesn’t like to be held. You can rub his belly though as he loves belly rubs).
