I must be more careful!!!

I believed a “FINAL NOTICE” postcard which said I need to renew the warranty on my 2020 Honda CRV. I went to website for the company shown on the card annd paid $3,711 for three years. Within a day I realized I’d made a mistake. The company name wasn’t on any of the emails I received and they had no webside. I cancelled the account. I didn’t believe they are reliable.

Instead I went with Endurance (the #1 company nationally).

On my birthday, Paul Hunt reminded me that I have coverage because I bought my car less than three years ago and at that time I purchased insurance for at least five years or 50,000 miles. Today I went through my files and found my paperwork from when I bought the car.

I am covered for ten years or 100,000 miles so I don’t need to renew my insurance.

I called Endurance and cancelled that coverage too. I got all of my money back from both of my mistakes.

I must be more suspicious of stuff that says I need to buy it.

I also found a monthly charge on my credit card that I haven’t authorized. I cancelled it too. (It’s under $10 monthly but I am not getting anything from that fee.)

I am rich but won’t be for long if I don’t watch things more closely!!!

Vision Scare

Foresee is the company that I use to check the progress of my macular degeneration.

I got a call from my eye doctor that Forsee wanted me to have my vision checked on sort of an emergency basis so I went in today. My vision is stable. No need for concern. I’m relieved!!

For some time today I can’t do much. My eyes have been dialatedand therefore everything is super glarey and blurry.

It’s worth it to know that I’m doing ok. My vision is better than 20/20 and no appreciable depreciation.

But boy is it bright out there!!!

Quiet Birthday

I worked at the Emergency Squad this morning. It was a pleasant day with a sweet substitute who worked with me.

Since it was my birthday, lots of folks wished me a good one. It’s like being with “family.”

At 5:30 I’ll be picking up Paul Hunt and driving us to the Southclub where we’ll enjoy a dinner. Paul is nearly blind so I’ll be doing the driving. He’s older than I am (by at least 10-15 yearss). We’re just friends. (Mom and Hoagie were Paul’s good friends.)

Since I know I’ll pay premium for a glass of wine at the Club, I’m having one now.

I won’t be out late. Promise!
