It all happened when I opened my email. So proud I had set up paperless billing for our National Grid bill and also, direct pay so it would be deducted each month. No worries and save some trees.
This morning an email was received with the deducted amount. CAN’T BE! It was DOUBLE the amount we normally owe. In fact, it was a duplicate of last month… (last month, because I set up paperless, the bill was missed so it was double…another story). That was too upsetting so I called and without a whole lot of fuss, cancelled the paperless, cancelled the automatic payment, and expect to receive a check in the mail for the HUGE amount they took from our account. Wipe my brow and breathe a big sigh of relief.
It was on to payroll. Generate checks. There was no tool bar. There was NO WAY to generate payroll checks. Now I have to call that horrible software company who, without fail, keeps me on hold for hours at a time…. so I opted for online chat. “Sonia” says… “I see you do not currently have a support plan set up… there are 3 options…” Well, I’ve fallen for that before and those 3 options all cost $200 and up. Nope. Disconnect. I pull out the software and find that I have 55 minutes of support left from last year. So what the hey, SONIA!!!! I make the dreaded call. To my dismay, there was only 10 minutes of waiting (believe me, that’s great!). The gal (Shirley was her name) says: “You lost your tool bar. Click on the little icon in the upper left corner and then click show tool bar“.
That sounded simple but I’m telling you in order to see that little icon you needed a magnifying glass and also, there was NO WHERE to indicate that was how to show or hide that elusive tool bar. Humph! So frustrating!
Then I suffered from a tension headache. Luckily it only lasted 30 minutes or so and actually could have been from the coffee this morning which was really too strong.
From there, and to my relief, very few problems. So now we are at dinner time and it’s Vegetarian Sausage for me. Ted and Teddy are enjoying their Turkey Tenderloin.

Ted cooked them on the grill, 7 minutes total. They were spicy and very satisfying.
That’s it for this day. Now it’s clean up and I’ll see if we can’t get Teddy to open his gift.
Have a great night.

Sorry about your frustrating day. I had one of those today. It was pouring cats and dogs in RI and I had a ton of stops to make on the road. And talk about a tension headache… wow, I thought my head was literally going to split! I hope you have a great rest of the week.
🙂
What a frustrating day! I hope today is better for you!
Thanks. It should have been a Monday.
