Last Wednesday Butch and I went to the grocery store and in the check out line our credit card was denied. So on advice from my friend Peggy we stepped aside and called them immediately. Sometimes they can make a mistake in denying it. But as I looked at the phone I had a text message to call them right away and so I did.There were several unauthorized charges on our card adding up to over $5000. So we are in the process of getting a new card. Actually we are going to get two. One with Butch as the primary owner and one with me as primary owner and we plan to use one only for Internet purchases and another for everything else. When this happens and it seems to be happening ever more frequently it can drive you nuts trying to figure out where, why and how it happened. Maybe by having two cards divided in uses we can at least narrow it down.
In the setting up of one of the new accounts I added that I would get an email notification of any charges exceeding $400. If that had been in place I would have been notified much sooner than I was.
This past week was Valley Senior Olympics and Butch took part in two events. Winning 2nd in Bridge and not placing at all in golf. Then this week he played the Men's in-park pool tournament coming in 2nd in that as well.
I have one more Tuesday morning presiding over the coffee hour as President, followed by one more business meeting and then I will be just another park resident.
And now here are a few pictures I have snipped from Facebook:
