Hello everyone here in Wealthy Affiliate!

Last evening, we did not get the other lawn mowed, but Monica did take me on some errands, and after that, we ate at Sonic--no Sonic Blasts this time though.

No, we don't own stock there yet, it is just good food still at a reasonable price.

Neither of us were up to one, but we did need some actual food.

We had Toaster Sandwich combos and they were both delicious and quite filling too.

Then I finished up some more work on the publishing venture before finally falling into a fitful sleep, though I must admit that when I woke up this morning I was surprisingly feeling fresh and ready to go.

I executed the morning foray into the Wealthy Affiliate Community, and that went without a hitch too, especially with Kitty appearing briefly.

So far, the morning had gotten off to a good start!

There were thunderstorms expected today, but if all goes well, then I should hopefully have my locksmith job this morning done before that becomes a problem.

The funny part about the locksmith job that I thought I had today is that it was tomorrow. The attorney had said Wednesday, so hence the confusion!

No harm, no foul, at least I now know it is tomorrow morning at 10 am, and I also know what I need for it too.

The drive over there had been nice enough, though.

Monica also called me before she heads to work at 10 am too, so I was glad to get a conversation in there, as well!

Then my mother called and she was petrified about people trying to collect a debt from her that was written off in 1990. They were on the phone with her threatening all kinds of things. I told her it was a scam, but she kept going on and on about it.

She had to go because she was at work, but I texted her the above screen shot from the Federal Trade Commission. There are hundreds like them and they prey on Seniors! It is disgusting! She texted back a thanks, but I feel that she is still rattled, and I will likely talk to her later in the day.

She also talked to my Step father, her ex who is a Chief of Police. He said it was likely identity theft, and she texted me that she was going by the Police Department where she lives to file something there concerning this.

Unfortunately, so many Seniors fall into this trap, and it is very sad! I usually chuck everything in the trash when these things come in. They are merely "phishing" expeditions. Don't pay them any mind. If they come online, I delete with no response whatsoever.

My Wealthy Affiliate research portion of the day will consist of re uploading my manuscript with the spelling errors corrected.

I will also tweak the cover a bit and then get it live some time this evening, if my luck holds out.

Since Monica gets off work at 2 pm, sometime this afternoon we will mow at the locksmith shop house, since it has gotten a little sunny off and on. I hope the thunderstorms hold off until later, although I suspect that tomorrow when I am changing locks in the morning it will be coming down like cats and dogs.

This is how the locksmith shop house looked last night while I was picking up the mail and some locks for the upcoming job that I have (now on Thursday).

Depending on how it goes, this new HUMP day has been interesting, if nothing else.

Since I likely will leave earlier than expected, I will post this earlier than usual. I'll be back on the computer later though.

I HOPE THAT EVERYONE HAD A WONDERFUL HUMP DAY TODAY! FOR THE MOST PART, MINE WAS SUCCESSFUL!

Sincerely,

Jeff, the BLOG DOG, and Kitty

Morning Jeff.

I have made a wise business decision! I have decided to buy shares in Sonic in Kanus - you and Monica will make this a profitable project alone and I can retire in a few months a very wealthy man haha.

I think the people who tried to scam your Mom are a [insert word here] disgrace. They prey on elderly people for their ill-gotten gains and use fear to take money from them. My Mother would also have worried about this type of thing and may have even been duped into paying. They have no morals and I believe in karma - what goes around comes around. Their day will come.

Laters Jeff,

Paul

EDIT - make sure your Mother does a credit check with a credit reference agency asap Jeff. This will immediately show if her ID has been stolen and someone is trying to use her details to apply for a loan etc. The matter can then be swiftly dealt with.

Our Sonic investments will not really get you to where you wish to be, Paul, unless you become a restaurant owner.

These people are disgraces, and I told my mother to get her credit reports, because I know that she is being scammed!

I definitely believe in Karma too, my friend!

Jeff

Hi Jeff.

It's certainly a good idea for your Mother to check her credit report to play on the safe side.

As for my Sonic project - I've decided to open one next door to you. I'm waiting for your neighbour to agree to the sale of his house and applied for planning permission (it's called A1 planning for a restaurant in the UK) to build a Sonic next to you. I'll rake it in heheh.

Laters Jeff,

Paul

Haha, and I won't have far to go either, Paul! Good man--put those crypto fortunes to good use!

Jeff🤣🤣

Terrible about the scammers and your Mum. Just shows the corruption in society.
I see we have super hump…found out it is a thing… NounEdit. superhump (plural superhumps). (astronomy) A visible brightening observed during a superoutburst.
Must happen when Humphrey is flying around the galaxy after a few sonics..lol

Great comments 👍

Slavkoi 👋

You could be right about that, Stevoi! 🤔 Anyway, she is dealing with things now!

Jeffoi 🤣🤣

Scammers. Hate them, lowest of the low Jeff. Hope your mum is OK.
More Sonics - you're addicted, what do they put in that stuff, send me some.
I had a customer call me once, when I was somewhere in France, demanding to know why I wasn't at his house.
It turned out that he'd written the wrong month in his diary - bye ...
It happens to the best of us.
Get that grass cut, you'll need a combine harvester soon.
Bux

I hate them too, Bux! She is at the Police Department now filing charges of identity theft! We'll see how that goes!

If the rain ever stops then we can get it cut.

Jeff

I feel the same way about scammers. They are pond scum. Add hackers to this group also. Awful when they try to take advantage of seniors.

Hazel

I totally agree, Hazel!

Jeff

Wet grass! I had to water mine last night, the soil was starting to crack. Never done that in May before.
Keep charging mate.
Bux

Couldn't mow because of it,Bux! It'll be a forest at this rate before we get to it!

I'll always keep charging forward, backwards is not an option!

Happy Hump Day's eve!🐫

Jeff

We've had hump day Jeff. All that long grass is obscuring your view of the week. Either that or those Sonic Blasts.
Bux

Probably both, Bux! When the rain stops we will get to it!

Jeff😎🍺

Hi Jeff,

Glad to read the locksmith jobs seem to keep popping up.

I always enjoyed mowing lawns when I was a kid. Hope you get it down before the rain, although if it rains as much as you say you'll need to go back in a short time and mow it again, hah hah.

I hope you have had a great afternoon.

Regards,

Jason

Thanks, Jason! They are! I know what suspended my driver's license, and it is a huge snafu, but right now I will drive to the paying jobs only. Everything else, I will rely on Monica's ability to get me some other places!

There's been a lot of T-Storms this afternoon, so the lawn will go another few days without being tended to!

Jeff

Hi Jeff,

Can't wait to read of the license issue being resolved. Stupid red tape always causing issues.

Hopefully the rain won't be so plentiful you get lost in the grass as you try cutting it, hah hah.

Regards,

Jason

Thanks, Jason! SMALLER GOVERNMENT NOW!

There will be no cutting again tonight, so it will really be a beast to cut when we get to it! Rolling T-Storms throughout the evening!

Jeff

Oh geez! These people who preys on the seniors- they would never stop! I wish I could protect them all! ☹️

So this is the last day of May, will your DL issue be resolved after this month Jeffoi?

It’s a good thing that Monica can drive you around when you need to..

It has been such a beautiful day. My first night back to work Jeffoi! Tonight and tomorrow night. Hope it won’t be as crazy!

Have a relaxing rest of the evening Jeffoi!

Cheers,
Maria 🌹

I know exactly what you mean, Marioi! I would protect them all if I could too!

I now have paperwork printed to get it rectified, but it will still take time to straighten out. What happened should have NEVER have happened as it turns out!

Enjoy your first night back to work, my friend!

I plan to have a relaxing evening as it slowly arrives!

Jeff🙏

Oh Jeffoi!

At least now you have your papers for your DL issue be rectified! Sometimes things like this happens!

Enjoy your evening Jeffoi!

Cheers,
Maria 🌹

Yes, that is true, Marioi! Might take 2-4 days to rectify though, if not more!

You do the same, we are being hammered by T-Storms now!

Jeffoi
