Damn You Ebay!
December 20, 2009 By
Filed Under: Uncategorized
Dear Friends :
If you don’t know about Jaden. , I need you to know now. His family and I are in dire straights for your help. I held an auction for his benefit. Many of you helped! Ebay hosted it. They promised to waive all fees. I have documentation.
Ebay is now reneging on it’s offer to WAIVE all of Jaden’s Fees for the online auction I held. There are $453.70 worth of fees Ebay may no longer waive. They have agreed to waive an initial $50.00 and the rest has to be ‘SUMBITTED FOR APPROVAL.” I have wasted countless hours… waiting for confirmation of what was promised to me, BY THREE DIFFERENT EBAY REPRESENTATIVES including a supervisor. I have copies of all of the chats. Despite this, I was told tonight that not only am I WRONG, all THREE reps were wrong also. This family needs this money. $450.00 may be peanuts to Ebay but to this family it is a car payment. It pays for Jaden’s co pays. It is needed. Point blank.
I would never have hosted the auction on Ebay if they hadn’t agreed to waive the fees.
Here’s what I need you to do.
I NEED help broadcasting this story EVERYWHERE. I am not waiting to be told NO… 2 weeks from now. I want everyone to PUSH for these fees to be waived.
1. PUT THIS STORY ON YOUR BLOG- link it to this page please! Here’s the tiny url. http://tinyurl.com/ydrmqwp

To Whom It May Concern,
I am appalled to hear that Ebay is not honoring their promise to waive all fees for a charity auction benefiting a little boy named Jaden Duttine. Jaden is two years old and is sick with stage 4 cancer. It would behoove Ebay’s image to approve the reversal of all fees on this sellers account as promised and documented. This family is in dire need of the $453.70 in fees that Ebay might possibly take out of their pocket.
( your name)
2. WRITE A LETTER if you prefer.

Saturday 9: White Christmas
1. If you live where you get winter weather, do you prefer your Christmas to be white? If you never see snow, do you wish for it?
White Christmas are ok as long and I don’t have to drive in them or go anywhere in them. I am sure I would miss if I lived where we didn’t get any snow.
2. How many holiday cards did you receive from people you hadn’t sent cards to, after the “mailing deadline?” Did you send a card anyway?
One and I didn’t send out any Christmas cards. I didn’t have the time to send any out and I am kind of cheap when it comes to buying cards.
3. When the clock strikes Midnight on New Year’s, will you be at home, at a party, or somewhere else?
I will be at home in bed I am assuming. I rarely do anything for New Years.
4. Have you ever taken the keys and driven home a friend that you felt was too drunk to drive? If not, do you think you would attempt to if that situation ever arose?
Yes I do that and I have done that for a guy that I didn’t even like.
5. Tell us about a gift that you either bought or made for someone else that you wanted for yourself!
I made a scrapbook for my BFF and now I wish I had made one for me too.
6. What chores do you have left for the holidays?
Finishing up my shopping and cleaning my bed room.
7. If you could buy one gift for yourself where money was not an obstacle, what would it be?
A house
8. What is one of your family’s favorite holiday traditions?
We really only have one and that is having breakfest together Christmas morning.
9. If you could give a fellow blogger a holiday gift, which would it be and what would you give them?
I would give Supah something because she is a great person and is always helping out other people.

A Return To Letters

Filed Under: Dear So So, Letters of Intent
Well it is finally Friday and that means that it is time for Friday letters. I have fallen off of the bad wagon lately but I am trying to get back on it. So we are going to attempt to write some letters and get back on the blogging band wagon.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear crazy Christmas shoppers,
Is it really needed to be assholes to everyone. I mean we are all shopping for last minute things so be nice. I mean I am going to bitch slap the next the next person who starts to shove or get bitchy about things while waiting in line.
Pissed off shopper
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Co-Workers,
It is Christmas can’t we all just be nice to each other and get along. Is it really that hard to get along with each other. No one is stealing your accounts so get over it and act like adults!
Thanks,
Tired Receptionist

Dear Christmas,
YOU SUCK!
Margaret

Dear Dr. Klien,
Your nurse sucks major ass! I refuse to talk to her ever again! You really need to tell her to quit being a bitch and do her job! It isn’t that hard to look in a chart and find a phone number!
Pissed off patient

There are the letters for this Friday and it sure feels better to write them!
Karma

Filed Under: Karma, PERSONAL THOUGHTS, Prompts
This weeks writing prompt from Mama’s Losing It that i chose is:
2.) What is one of your life mottos?
(inspired by Marcy from The Glamorous Life Association)
The main motto for my life is… Karma is a bitch! I am a firm believer that Karma will catch up with everyone. So if you don’t want to get it worse than what you gave it be nice and only do things to other people that you want done to yourself.
I am working on an update but lets just say life is crazy and I haven’t had tons of time lately. I have also be slacking on reading blogs and what not. I promise that I will be back to normal after the beginning of the new year. Please bare with me!
Golf Club Hitting
December 14, 2009 By
Filed Under: All About MEme
This weeks Monday MEme is all about the 5 people I would like hit over the head with a golf club. There are so many I don’t know how I am going to reduce the list down to just five people. I will see what I can do and what not.
5- Drag-This is a guy I work with that I would like to hit upside the head.
4- My Grandpa- For always being drunk and making an ass out of himself all the damn time.
3-Ron- For being an idiot…but hopefully he won’t mess up again.
2-Myself-Because I am crazy and mean to people and need to grow up in some parts of my life.
1-My Birth Mom-Because she is an idiot and needs to be shot or smacked to get some sense into her head.
There you go that is my list. Hope you enjoyed it and I can’t wait to read all of your lists.

Fill In The Blank Friday

Filed Under: Fill In The Blank Friday
It is Friday and that means it is time for Fill In The Blank Friday with the (Un)Experienced Mom. The questions today are about cartoons that we watch.
The children’s show I can’t stand is_____________.
But the show I secretly like is _________________.
I don’t really know any current kid shows because I lack the kids but I couldn’t stand The Magic School Bus when I was younger. I don’t ever watch my secret show but it is Sponge Bob Square Pants. I love the song and still catch myself singing it from time to time.
