SENT!

SHIP'S LOG:

     Today is the day. I sent to BOAT/US the estimated cost of repairs, $11, 743.82, as well as a charge of $1,064 for "summer storage!" The clock is now ticking and it will undoubtedly tick a long, long time. I have no doubt that there will be every type of maneuver tried to get out of, or at least forestalling, payment, but the ball is now in their court! It would be so much easier if Publisher's Clearinghouse finds me.

Another fun item . .  . evidently because I "mad too much money," Social Security won't be sending me my payments for the next three months. I began taking Social Security Retirement before I hit 65 and that's a no-no if you have income above a certain amount. So they "technically"  over-paid me  and they want their money back. So they will get it by not paying for three months. How great is that?
