COLD!

      It finally snowed on February 3rd. It's not deep, but it's -20 and very, very windy. We actually have ice on the inside. So much for 'nice and toasty in the living room', which is where I was going to sleep. I guess it doesn't matter.
      Life is still hell, but now it's frosted. I was told earlier that each month my mother does not pay off her card, she owes that balance twice, and then three times, then four, then five! So in ten months we could be ten grand in the hole! He may have misspoke, but that really scared me. I've got this feeling that my brother and I will end up with her debt when she's gone.

  1. It finally snowed? You mean this is your first snow of the winter? lol, wow! (It's -22 here, too.)

    Mom told me she and Lorne have offered to switch rooms with you ... is there some reason you don't want to?

    What kind of card is it? I'm quite sure that no company in the world doubles the owed amount, ever (no one would want to use their company).

    G. has a credit card, and I think he does pay a little for it for months that he doesn't pay back what he owes (that, or he just can't use it), but the amount owed definitely doesn't double!

    Also, I think you can only be stuck with Mom's debt if you have the same last name - but you'd be better off asking Bobbi about that kind of thing; she's a genius and she knows banking and money like I probably never will. :p

    1. Yes, it is. I'd never seen a green Christmas before. Lorne speculates this summer we'll see +50 degrees Celsius.
      There are several reasons I don't, and several I do. Everything always comes down to a pros and cons list.
      It's a Visa. Like I said, he may have misspoken, but either way we're still losing a lot of money, and the privileges that come with having some extra money; a privilege we were just getting used to. This year is just going to suck.
