Who could ask for anything more

Today my grand kids were delivered to the house. Ringing the door bell madly as usual. I was in the shower and had to run out and let them in. Got them all settled in and then tried to work on the two computers I have here to be fixed. No dice on either one.

So I guess that was my clue to go out into the field. First stop was the post office where I mailed a package to my sister. She is so wonderful. I will tell you about her later. Anyway, I sent her a bracelet that I got off e-bay and she saw the picture of it and said it was beautiful. So it's hers now. Or in a couple of days.

********************************************

Next I went to go visit my customer in the hospital. This time I did get a picture of her but she looks much better then the picture. She found out she is going to be moved to the rehap center today.

Let me tell you about this client. She was referred to me by the bartender of my local bar. I called her and never knew anything about her. She wanted to keep my services on the downlow so I went along with that. I didn't know what she wanted from me. I do book keeping stuff also so I went with that idea. I met her at a coffee shop in the neighborhood and found out all kinds of things about her. Keeping her privacy I wont go into it. And seeing as I am typing this and working on a computer and it is actually working, I won't say anything. Karma you know. Anyway she handed me all her bills and said here. OKAY. Now what. It was hard for me to understand her as she mumbles alot. And when she whisper mumbles, oh my goodness. I didn't want to sound rude so I just let her talk this way. Anyway, I guess my services were to help her pay her bills on time and get her back in good standings. Good luck Me.

She asked me how much I would charge her and I told her we would work it out after I figured out what she was into. This was a little over a month ago. During the first month of getting her bills paid, I paid for $200.00 worth out of my own pocket. Obviously she over extended herself. But not really. Nothing out of the ordinary other then paying the bills. She actually only has $20.00 left for food every month, if that.

So then the next meeting was set for the next week. I met her again at the coffee shop. She is newly handicapped, I found out. It took her twenty minutes to get into the restaurant. No kidding. The guys in the restaurant wanted to come out and carry her in on a chair. Boy is she stubborn. I told them if they valued their hands they wouldn't even try. We sat and talked and she passed me her bills.

Next visit was at a VFW. No way to see in the bar at 11:00 in the morning. I collected her bills and traveled.

Next visit she wants me to meet her at the bank and she gives me signing authority on her account. She then wants to give me Power of Attorney. I declined on that one. She barely knows me I told her.

Eventually her friend found out about me and now I go to her house. Except I get a phone call from her friend and she tells me she is in the hospital. Which brings you up to speed cuz I have visited her twice now. She cried today. Got me all worn out.

So far I have given her $200 and set her up with one of my customers to get a mobile wheel chair, which is done and waiting for her at her home as we speak. And two visits to the hospital. Can you imagine. I have only known her for a little over a month. I got a feeling there is going to be alot more stories about her.

*****************************

Next I leave there and go to my other customer to drop off their lap top. This customer is the one who sets people up with Wheel chairs. And on my hospital customer's request to contact them and see about a ramp being set up in her home, I do this. Now a few doors down the hall is a good friend of mine. Went to see her and she is in her shop crying. Another draining story. Her mother is sick and she wants to do something nice for her so they could remember each other by. One of her friends horned in on it and is taking all the fun out of it. This lady deserves a medal for the wonderful things she does. Again I will tell you about her later cuz this story is too long.

Came home to the kids and have been working on computers since. Now I am going to go to the movies with them. Going to see the bratz movie. I'm sure there will be a story there too.
