so sorry you are having this problem, and keep up the good work on not drinking, my hubby has been sober for 4 years now, not only did his drinking affect him but it affected all of us, it has been a blessing to have him sober. Penny

Let us know what happens. If they think it doesn't matter about you belonging to a large group like this they are wrong! It is good that we share experiences good or bad and it can make a difference on if we order from those companies.

NOW WAIT my order was $44.81 and was applied on initial order, what do they need to charge me again for? They say I owe a penny,making it $44.81. Called and spoke to them, they need my card number again. This woman now applies another $11.97 against my card not the penny. Call back and I am told they will charge another $43.?? can't rember the cents, when they ship ,which the order was ready to ship this morning. The shipping is free when your order is $35.00 So far the order still has not shipped! The monies have been applied against my card now for more than double what my cost actually was! I 'm I the only one who beleives I have been scammed on this order?
Edti: Oops sorry, I had skipped the page where the card was discussed. My apology. I hope you get this straightened out fast. Perhaps contacting the company once more speaking to someone else. And put on a pot of coffee or tea and relax.

I don't know if anyone has noticed that we are being cheated by our fabric manufacturers. Patterns are being upgraded using a less wide fabric, which does add up when buying fabric for a queen or king size quilt. Just because quilting is very popular, does not mean that they can take us for a ride. Most fabrics are made in countries where wages are very very low.

Start thinking about putting in a "Nanny Cam" for
when you are absolutely forced to leave the place.
Also, lock any door inside the apartment that does
not need to be open.
Many years ago we had to do that in another state
where we were stationed in the AF.

Thank you! Actually I put up a camera with a vcr to record and replaced bedroon doorknobs with with lock keyed doorknobs. I actually have it so I can see if my mom is in distressed when I am laying down. but it looks to the kitchen and small hall to bathroom. Due to her condition she is set up in the f/r for easy access for EMT'S and ambulance.This is a small place, by some standards.
