Maybe a dumb flat question?

ndgirl, I was remembering the same thing. The label is printed on the can.

glennie, Hormel might have copies of the publicity around her win. Perhaps even a photo from Hawaii.

idesim, Are your cards RFID? If so they have a little speaker printed on them. Those can be read from inside your purse anywhere. You can get RFID blocking card holders or make one yourself with aluminum foil. Definitely report as identity theft. A poster on another thread had her cards read while she was having coffee in a mall. They were charging airline tickets to her card. Often they will put thru a small purchase to make sure the card is active. When it is, they follow up with something big.

I'm happy to contribute to the costs involved with the scrapbook. No talent at all in that area. I remember loving cold spam sandwiches when I was a kid, but would only eat it now if it would make DP's cancer disappear.

Wren:  what is RFID? Do I need to wrap my wallet with aluminum foil? 

I too, would only eat spam if it cured cancer.   I will keep looking for pics!  Good idea about Hormel.

ND:  you still have cold?  It is soooo freaking cold up there by you.  Like Bobo says,, soup!!

I don't know exactly what RIFD is, but it's some kind of scanner thing a crook can carry, and scan your cards or DL while you both are walking around in a store. Crooks can also put some kind of skimmer thingy like on the gas pump, or an ATM to capture your card #.

I'm ordering a purse tonight that has this blocker stuff in it. It's from the Lighter Side, $19.99.

It's friggin ridiculous is what it is... SOB's taking money from hard working people.

Here's an article... Spookie careful what you are buying.. it might not actually block.

That's from consumer reports btw.

I was just reading reviews on wallets on Amazon. Many of them are also faulty. People tested their badge readers at work thru them, and they scanned just fine thru the wallet!  FAIL!

The best one I found over there was Sharkk aluminum RFID wallet. So far, the best reviews.  And then you should probably wrap it in aluminum foil !  It's a crazy world we live in.

And then wrap THAT in duct tape sheesh.

Thank you all for the offers of money for the edible arrangement, but it is not necessary. Paid with a credit card so that doesn't count, right? Lol Seriously, not a problem.

I still feel a bit lost, so I think I will make comfort food for dinner. Mac and cheese should help!

Hi Lisa, welcome, it is such a sad time here right now isn't it?

Yes both DH and I have been in to dr and going again on Friday. I am not as bad as DH but still feel crappy, no energy, upset tummy to a small degree, yep can eat soup and tea, cough isn't so bad now but here comes the headache. Got z packs but don't think they have done much yet. It is damn cold here now -25 tonight but nothing unusual for this area. I should have been out last night with my camera the Northern Lights were beautiful! Love when they dance! Hard to get good pics in town with the street lights.

We have a little card for our passport, like a drivers licenses that lets us into Canada and Mexico and we keep that in a special sleeve, guess we better protect the credit cards too. Damn crooks

Yeah, Z, what is going on with your boy? Better after Benedryl, and no other symptoms? Woke up worrying about him last night.

Hi Lisa. M, I was having that feeling last week. I have been okay moment by moment with our DP, managing, and I thought I was making myself helpful by organizing little art projects and care packages from the kids. BTW, M, your card for our princess got here yesterday! It is wonderful! And little surprise! It was very welcome in this week -- you know what it's been like for her. And... it is the only card she received from a grandma, if you know what I mean.

Anyway, I was getting by about all of it, but last week I hit some kind of a wall. It came to the front of my mind that I did not understand why she has to suffer so much. I know we have been working on this actively for weeks now, trying to advise DP and cheer her on as she tried to get straight answers from her Fucktards and get into palliative care. We tried to make her feel okay about taking pain meds to relieve her own pain. But, you know, I think all that for me was just a way of dealing with this larger issue. I don't know why she has to suffer. I hit a wall about it last week -- tried to do my yoga and meditation practices through it, and concentrate on our DP, she is the one suffering, not me -- but I was crying and crying. It definitely does not seem right that she should have to ever have suffered at all.

And now I'm going back and thinking about how poorly things were done, and how she has suffered, when I should be looking forward.

S, I wish I could have some of your mac and cheese. XXX

S, I missed you sending the edible arrangement... you should let us chip in. Mac & Cheese is one of my favorites too, it is one of the ultimate comfort foods, I hope you made enough for all of us too

Hi Lisa, you are always welcome here to lurk or to chat or complain or whatever you'd like How many rads do you have left and how are you feeling? Rads was the worst for me out of all of them, not pain wise or anything, but because it was just so annoying having to go for 30 treatments. You need to treat yourself to a little treat after each week you finish.. it gives you a little something to look forward to (don't start Bobo!!). If we can answer any questions for you, feel free to ask.

Bobo, I think we are all doing the same thing, I know I am.. it's a phase we have to go through unfortunately, but we have each other and we'll get through this somehow. I'm trying not to get angry but am having a very hard time of it. Love the story of the princess being all princessy with her card from M.

I'm second guessing having emailed Bond.. I hope it wasn't intrusive, I don't want to add to his stress levels.

Z, is this it? Ebay Storksac

Gonna go make some dinner, not really hungry though.

*hugs*

I reply to myself-FFS only one Grandma card? If not too late I am a grandma and I would love to send her a card! Also just got the ultimate wedding card! You all look so lovely Bobo! See I'm smiling while I write this! You all made me smile!

Hi Lisa

FFS, only one Grandma card??  ** someone needs an @ss kicking**  I LOVE how she told W boy, "it's from Moira"!!  You go Princess!!

Will have to check the Spam cans again. DId not notice that the cover would come off. There is turkey Spam too.

Worried about Boy and his allergies. Broke out from petting the cat? Yikes! Can he pet cat then wash hands and not break out?  Neighbor's son has to do that with Ava,, he pets her and then immediately washes hands and doesn't touch skin,, especially face,, and then he is usually OK.  He LOVES Ava and wants to pet her. He is 20, so he can make up his own mind. **I am not corrupting a young child**

The Mac and Cheese was very yummy.  Did you notice I took seconds?

It is not right that DP has suffered so much and that her dicktards were such idiots. Karma will come back and kick them in the @ss for being such fucktards.

Hi Lisa!!  **waves**

Hang it there, everyone.  Stay warm.  (((hugs)))

Edit:  I did not know about the Fundme site!

Thanks Z. I believe she heard every word and knows she is loved. Weepin

Now I'm crying
