I'm so pissed
Thank God for credit card fraud departments! But, I'm still pissed - somehow, someone got our Debit Card account number and has been spending money all over Mexico.
I'll get the money back from my credit union, but our ATM cards have been cancelled and it will take 10 days to get new ones, I had to file a police report (fortunately, Leavenworth, Kansas has a great police department - no waiting!), and I have to call the credit union tomorrow morning to get our money back.
And this kind of thing really upsets me to no end. You see, I always worry about money - getting bills paid on time, etc., and anytime something happens that might screw up our account, I don't sleep, I fret, I do stupid things like go to the casino to get cash from a credit card to put it in our checking account to cover possible bounced checks - ok, well I have not done that for probably 6 or 7 years, but it was dumb.
Anyway, I'm going to go and attempt to put beautiful Mexican tiles (which were NOT purchased in Mexico - but locally) on my the table John and I made out of an old butcher block that we created a 36 inch square MDF top for - which will have the tile laid on top of that. I've been putting this off for months. It's going to happen - today and tomorrow.

Beth, I've had exactly the same thing ('cept not from mexico, from adult entertainment companies for some reason) happen to me twice in the least 18 months.
Thankfully I pay the $7 a month extra for my banks "gold" account package, and everything gets fixed within 48 hours instead of the weeks and weeks of bull I would otherwise suffer through.
