Vacation

Ah-h-h-h, I'll be going on vacation soon and I can't wait! The whole family is going on what may be our last vacation as a family unit. We're going to Puerto Rico! Man, I can't wait for the sun, surf, smells and food. It'll be great for us and the kids to be together and just relax, explore, and just have some fun for a change. I won't be taking any of my writing, but I'll have a small pad to jot ideas on just in case, and a camera of course. The last time I was in Puerto Rico I went alone and camped out in the rainforest. It was a weird and wonderful experience, and I was lucky because they don't let people do that anymore. But the camping thing, wow, it was just so cool! I hope to take the family to the rainforest, as well as to a couple of other places that are mostly tourist attractions... but then, we're going to be tourists so it should alright. Am I rambling? I feel like I'm rambling. Oh well, maybe I'm already in vacation mode. I will, of course, let you know how it all turns out...

Where's the money man? Where's the money?

You know, times are tough right now and it seems that everyone and every company is counting their pennies... me included. Well, add all that to the fact that I'm going on vacation in a couple of weeks and so I've been kinda extra careful with my funds lately. Imagine my surprise (I've been getting surprised a lot lately haven't I?) when I went to pay my mortgage and found that more than half of the money was missing from my account! I thought maybe the bank made a mistake and so I went to confront them and instead found out that someone has been siphoning money from my acount for at least a couple of months! Who? Who? How? Uh-oh, I guess I wasn't as careful as I thought and someone took advantage...
The bank is now performing an investigation. We'll see what happens...
