For the past couple of months I have noticed that several of my credit cards have suddenly changed their terms on me. One has taken away the 5 day grace period that gave me a few extra days to get the money to them and several of them have raised the interest fee up to 21%! This is absurd and I’m very upset with them all for doing this to me during these economic stressful times that it making life so difficult for the majority of us that need and depend on our credit cards to get by on. So I decided to take a look around on the Internet and see if I could find a useful site that would assist me with the task of finding a low interest credit card to replace the main one (credit card) that I have been relying on for years.

One site that I found very useful is at comparecards.com, they offer useful tips and information concerned credit cards and give you an opportunity to compare credit cards. I took the time to look around and found a much better deal that I’m happy with and encourage anyone in the same boat to do the same, it’s worth it.

No, I’m not talking about my monthly cycle! I am complaining about all my bills that seem to be due on or around the first of the month. I’ve called a few of them and asked if I could move some of the due dates to the middle of the month and so far none of them have given me that opportunity, sigh…….

I’ve heard that the problem of bed bugs are on the rise. I’ve seen numerous stories on the evening news concerning them and have read a lot of articles concerning them as well. Today there was an Orkin truck in front of my neighbors house, come to find out that they are experiencing a bed bug problem and are having to dish out $2000 for Orkin to come into their house and take care of the problem.

Beware.

If you wake up in the morning and look like this, please do not go to school or work. Stay home and call your doctor ASAP!

This weekend was a scorcher, the high nineties all the way. It wasn’t really a problem, since I was at the beach and had access to the water and the air conditioner when needed. But now that the week has started, it is really becoming a bummer. The air conditioning in my car isn’t really up to speed and I’m suffering the whole way to work and back again.

Hopefully by the end of the week it will tone down just a bit. It is August, we expect it to be hot, but come on……………
