Monday, October 7, 2013


Several of you asked me why I am not getting the pension Sarge paid into for over twenty years for me.  It is not "funded".  Here is a pamphlet that explains it (a$$holes) if you want to see.  Anyway it's called the SPB/DIC offset.  The translation of that is "you aren't getting your pension sukkah".  There are currently 85,000 widows in the USA that fall under this "widow's tax".  They are dying off and those will never get it.  I am hopeful that someday I might.  Oh, and one more thing...  Are you ready for this one???  If I remarry I CAN get it.  Go figure.  Our lawmakers at their finest. 

So okay, onward and upward to nicer things to talk about today.  WalMart is honoring Publix coupons and buy one get one free until October 9th.  I was able to score on several things there.  I had to show the cashier the ad and sure enough, got them free.

Then I worked hard in the pool and it felt so good.  When I got back upstairs and had a shower it was all I could do to stay awake.  I didn't want to take a nap because I was afraid I wouldn't sleep as it was already supper time and too late to nap.  Such problems, huh?  Ha ha...

So it's Monday again.  I love Mondays because I don't have anything I have to do so I can swim and get up whenever I want and just have a wonderful day.  Today I want to do a manicure/pedicure myself as my project of the day.  

Hope your Monday is as good as mine!

  7. I'm guessing that women remarry far, far less then men remarry, so they figure they can take your money and use it for some stupid reason. I'm just guessing here. Thieves.

    Way to go at Walmart. I love those kind of coupons as long as I don't have to go to Walmart.

    Have a terrific day honey. Big hugs. ☺

  10. so sorry to lean the details of the pension ripoff. . . it makes no sense, and must be changed. I hope you are going to try to work for that.
    Thank you for the Vitamix link to the QVC! I know Vitamix has several models, but was
    so confused as to which to consider. You've been a wonderful help :))
