Think before you speak.

I got this message today.

Kimberly, I love the name Eliza. I was in church one day and the pastor was talking about when parents lose their children, he was saying that God knows what he's doing, because if he let them get to an age of accountability, they may not decide to choose him, and since he's God he happens to know everything we do before we do it. If he took them home before they ever had the chance to make that mistake, it's just his way of saving them. In eternity all that will matter is weather or not we are with God. I hope that came out right.

No, it didn't, or maybe it did. I am not sure what the hell the point of this was. But it is highly offensive. Especially knowing Emerald. And what would this say for God. God saved Emerald from who? From me? What about free will? Does that enter into the picture anywhere?? I was so upset, I wanted to scream. I did email her back and she hasn't said anything yet.

I wonder if she will.

Then, after I get this, the water company comes to my door, and tells me they didn't get my payment. They aren't even far away. I sent them payment. On top of the $10 extra for the late fee, now I have to pay the $20 collection fee, and $30 overdraft fee when payment #2 hits my account. And my bill was only $24.00. If I would have made the payment by internet, it would cost me $8.00. Why? Because it is less work for them to take internet payments? My phone company offers a $1.00 discount on my bill if I pay them online. But to make a payment to the water company, I have to pay extra.

Let's hope the rest of my day, goes a bit more smoothly! Because I am totally on edge and annoyed today.
