What made me unhappy today ?

[Trish]

When I let the chickens out at 6 am it was 36°F.

I like the cold, I like it a lot, and even much colder. I wouldn't live here if I didn't. Late May though? That's a bit much.

Hotel desks irritate me beyond rational justification. They are too tall for typing and I believe hotels buy pre-failed hydraulic struts for their chairs. You sit, you sink, the table that was too high to begin with is now an unscalable mesa.

Not optimal.

My desk is tilting sideways. Now my screen is tilted.

I just fell victim to a scam.

An email came in to my business email address, seemingly from one of my suppliers, telling me a service was expiring and that it needed renewing. As it happened, a service WAS expiring so I didn't look closely and clicked it, entered my card details and clicked Pay. Some weird message about an app came up, and it made me look closer. Then I realised, the link wasn't going where I expected.

I quickly logged in, transferred all the money to one of my personal accounts at another bank (not one that some caller had asked me to open) and froze my card. Tried to call the bank's fraud line and just got a voicemail. Should be ok now, but I really could do without having to deal with this in the middle of the night. I'll have to sort out a new card now and update various payment details.

I'm so sorry that happened. Scams like that are the worst and the shame and embarrassment is hard to deal with. I've fallen victim to scams in the past and it's hard to talk about, so thank you for sharing.

I woke up with really bad back pain. It's common for me every since my spine was fused, but some days the pain is worse and I have a hard time getting out of bed. But I managed to get up and do some chores! Now I'm sitting here with a fine cup of coffee and reading through this wonderful forum.

I wish I could give you two reactions - I would give you a sad face for your pain, but a happy face that you are feeling better!

Speaking as a fellow sufferer of muscle pain (both back and neck) ... I suppose you've tried heat packs and hot baths, ellekaldwin? Heat packs always helped me with back/neck pain.

Hope you feel better soon.
