well, it has been a while...

My new job lasted a year, then I was laid off, but it is fine, I have been unemployed for 3 years and never been Healthier or Happier!

It is kind of hard to adjust to NOT having to be somewhere every day, but it gets easier.  I had unemployement for  about a year, but went on very few interviews, there just isn't anything out there.

The next year I kept up looking but still nothing, now though I do the books for a friend, doesn't bring in a bunch of cash but enough plus it keeps my mind from going to mush.

I mostly blog at https://swobodasays.wordpress.com/ now.  It is really hard to keep up more then one blog I have tried and failed :)

Thank you to all my followers, I hope you come on by to the new blog.

809 Area Code Scam Alert

This was forwarded to me so I am passing it along....
I checked it out with AT&T and Snopes
809 Area Code

We actually received a call last week from the 809 area code.. The woman said 'Hey, this is Karen . Sorry I missed you--get back to us quickly. I have something important to tell you.' Then she repeated a phone number beginning with 809. We did not respond. Then this week, we received the following e-mail:


Do Not DIAL AREA CODE 809, 284, AND 876

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION PROVIDED TO US BY AT&T. DON'T EVER DIAL AREA CODE 809

This one is being distributed all over the US ... This is pretty scary, especially given the way they try to get you to call.

Be sure you read this and pass it on.

They get you to call by telling you that it is information about a family member who has been ill or to tell you someone has been arrested, died, or to let you know you have won a wonderful prize, etc..

In each case, you are told to call the 809 number right away. Since there are so many new area codes these days, people unknowingly return these calls.

If you call from the U.S. , you will apparently be charged $2425 per-minute.

Or, you'll get a long recorded message. The point is, they will try to keep you on the phone as long as possible to increase the charges. WHY IT WORKS:

The 809 area code is located in the Dominican Republic ..

The charges afterward can become a real nightmare. That's because you did actually make the call.. If you complain, both your local phone company and your long distance carrier will not want to get involved and will most likely tell you that they are simply providing the billing for the foreign company. You'll end up dealing with a foreign company that argues they have done nothing wrong.

Please forward this entire message to your friends, family and colleagues to help them become aware of this scam.

Sensa - Trial Offer

Ok, sucker that I am, I decided to try the Sensa Diet.  It seems easy enough, just sprinkle it on your food before you eat.

I had a diet once before, called Sprinkle Thin, but it did change the taste of your food, this one isn't supposed to be noticable.

You get 2 months worth for $4.95 but you have to make up your mind in 1 month so we will see.  For anyone who does a Trial Offer, print out how to do the cancellation and then make sure to mark on your calendar to cancel about a week before so you don't forget!

I have to say I already like it, as there meal plan makes sense, no foo foo items, no hard to make foods.  Plus it was FREE no extra charge.

I say check it out...or wait and I will let you know how it goes :-)
