Subject: Frustrated!!

Good Morning Everyone!

Well this is the pits. I have rebooted three times this morning. Logged on and off 5 times. I can receive e-mails, but now I can't send them. I don't know what the hell is going on, but I guess I am going to have to break down and call Mindspring. So I am silent with the OSSG-Welcome at the moment.

This is when it becomes tricky with the internet, as I have good friends and family that don't get involved with forums, so they have no idea when I am not writing what's going on. Like maybe I am being a snob? I know I get concerned when I don't hear from someone for awhile. But for those of us who do and can use forums, will at least know what's going on. I hope to get it resolved before the day is out.

By the way, I finally got my doctor to approve a diuretic for me. But still arguing with him for temporary disability payments. My breathing seems to have gotten worse the last two weeks. And I don't know anyone who would hire me in my industry with an oxygen tank attached to my nose.

Funny about descrimination. They don't have to say you're fat, you've got oxygen, we don't like your skin color, your religion, your hair color, age, gender --- They can always come up with something else.

For the record, I have been free lancing as a motion picture accountant for the last 21 years. I haven't worked since last May, mostly by choice. I wanted to sell my house (in California) and get the hell out of that state. I couldn't deal with the congestion, the pollution, and the cost of living -- nor did I ever want to go through another damn earthquake.

I moved to Wilmington, North Carolina last August in time for 3 hurricanes. And you know what? I would take a hurricane any old day over another damn earthquake. The last one in February 1994, nearly destroyed me. And I am a native Californian.

I love the Southern Hospitality, the gentile pace. I don't exactly like Jesse Helms and is narrow minded thinking.

I am about unity and the equality of mankind. I don't think I am better than anyone else. I perceive this life as one big test to make my spirit stronger. I am totally shy (can you believe it?) but love meeting people.

And I'm going to be a very young 52 year old this month!

Okay back to figuring out what's wrong with my ISP (Internet Service Provider). Rats.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful day!

Juli
