the stress tests..my wallet was stolen


18 years ago 0 610 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
wow phil, that is so horrible. When you are traveling it is even worse. These people are trying to steal my identity. They opened a new credit card with my id and social security # and charged $5000 immediately (probably a big screen tv). I am not responsible for any of the charges, thank goodness. I have closed all the cards and now there is a fraud alert at the credit bureau if anyone tries to open up any new accounts in my name. Hopefully, this is the end of the whole ordeal. I have been having stronger cravings since this happened. It sucks.

What a day I had yesterday. After I finally got my car going, I went to the grocery store. I was at the inside ATM machine making a deposit. My grocery cart was right next to me and my purse was in the grocery cart. A kid comes behind me on a bicycle. I think that I feel him touch my stuff. I look in my purse real quick, my wallet is gone. I run out the door, he is no where in sight. Talk about flipping stress, credit cards, drivers license, pictures of my kids, I think my social security card! I spent all evening chewing on straws and calling credit card companies. They had already charged 2 rental cars and a U haul?? Maybe they are running illegals across the border???? I thought rental places were a little more careful. Well, I did not smoke. I haven't had a day as horrible as yesterday for forever. Well, a new day today and I am still smoke free. that is something to be thankful for.

thank you everyone, Well, We can handle stress without nicotine! Isn't that a wonderful insight? I was a 30 a dayer for 30+ years. I smoked my way through all kinds of stressful situations. But, here i am, smoke free--yipee! If I can do it, Y'all can do it!
