It’s been awhile since I have logged on, but here I am, still me needing help in all aspects in my life.

Everything I do I seem to mess it up. Every time I choose to do something, after it’s done I wish I would of did it another way. For instants. I chose to go bankrupt, and being disabled I did not have to go bankrupt. Well that’s what my boss a retired lawyer tells me. And I’ve heard the same from others telling me that the creditors could not even have try to garnish my wages. More bad decisions. I wish I could of just paid them off. I don’t like the fact that I’m irresponsible as far as my life is concerned. So I chose PLC to be my lawyers, and they charged me an arm & a leg. Over a $1000. So I go to court and was not in front of the madam chair person for no more then ten minuets. She dismisses the case and tells me in thirty days I will have an answer. Do I wait the thirty days to cash a check for over $2000. No! More bad decisions. Oh and here’s a good one. I get this check in the mail telling me that I won $44,000 from a Readers Digest Lottery game that they say I entered, and I don’t recall entering one at all. I think I would remember if I had. Anyway I get this letter stating I won and there’s a check for $1900 as a down payment. To deposit it into my bank. Well I cashed it like the dummy I am. It bounces. Bank takes their money out of my account,(I’m glad I had the money to cover it) Now the bank wants to close my account on account that I cash it. I told them I didn’t know it was a scam check (although I should of known) but that’s my stupidity. I’m afraid to make any decisions in my life right now because it will be the wrong one no matter what it is. Now I’m just all fed up with myself. They won’t close my account if I go to the police and file a report, but the police won’t file one because there was no loss. The bank didn’t lose any money, I didn’t lose any money so what’s to file? So come Monday I get to call the bank and tell them I could not file a report due to the fact that I could not file a report. So after fifteen years with this bank with no past history of bad checks they are going to close my account. Go figure.

At least you make decisions. If you just kept waiting to decide, choices would be made for you. Always at least do a google search to validate checks and offers that come your way. The internet allows Joe-Shmoe to protect himself since others will post warnings on the internet.

Hey, Blackee. I bet you will never trust a check like that again. Lesson learned, carry on. Wisdom comes from experience, experience comes from making mistakes.

You guys are so right. I, believe it or not but I do learned from past mistakes. And I learned not to believe that I could of won a lottery through the mail, that should of been a red flag right there. I didn’t recognize it off the top. Well I did, I just wanted it to be true when I knew it just wasn’t true. Me and my wishful thinking. I forget just what this computer can do for me. Thanks to Oster, and to beepbeep. I can learn so much from your experiences. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again I like this Help.com and the wealth of knowledge before me. I am a novice in this field, of computers that is. And I wish, but why wish, I have a computer in my life now and I’m hooked. I was going to say I wish I would of gotten into computers sooner. But I have one now so… Goodnight sleep tight and don’t let those bed bugs bite. Clicking out.

Hey, thanks again Oster, I would like to say something to beepbeep, but he’s gone. What’s up with that. Is it something I said, just kidding. Hey there JUST K, beeper, rlt7. This is my shout out to you guys. I got some great news. My daughter that I haven’t spoken to in over 5yrs called me. And not only did she call me, she called me Dad. Dam that was good to hear. I also have a 5yr old grandson that goes by the name of Christoper. That’s great. I little life that I have an paternity to meet. She said she would like to see Blackee & me. So that gives me an excuse to get out of California. She’s out there in Tennessee. Wow! I haven’t been on a plane in a long time. Last time I was on a plane was on my 40th B-day. That was 7yrs ago. It was the first time Black or I have been on a plane. We went to Vegas. It’s a good memory. When the plane took off my poor Blackie, she was being pushed down into the seat. Good thing there was no one sitting next to us so I was able to put her chest up against the seat. So I’ve thought about driving. The train. And the plane. The plane is the cheapest of all. Although she needs a car, so I thought I would give her mine. Well bad idea. It still would be cheaper to fly out there and buy her a cheap car. Why cheap. Her first car I so happen to buy, and she wreaks it after only three months. Then she tells me that she bought another car, and I don’t know how long before she wreaks that one. Oh she tells me it wasn’t her fault. Insurance bought her another car. So now she has this new car and what happens, yup, she wreaks that one to. So I’m not going to buy her a new car. I’ll get her a big old Oldsmobile. That way she shouldn’t get hurt. It felt real good to tell her that I no longer drink. She had to ask me twice You did. Really. And it was a feeling I’ve not felt ever. Yes, now I can pat myself on the back and feel proud when I say “I Quit”. Yes it’s hard, but that feeling I had when I told her I quit was, well, worth it. Well I’ll check in tomorrow. See what’s up. Clicking out, Robert
