Everybody makes mistakes

Everybody has those days

So, in my last post I forgot to mention the pheasants that we have living in our yard. We have a mommy, and a daddy, and their babies! They are so adorable! We have seen them in the backyard and the front yard. We also have our cactus out in the front blooming some beautiful white flowers that smell nice.

I'm also going to take this time to say - don't ever, ever, ever shop at www.twinshoppe.com!! Someone got a hold of my old credit card that the bank was supposed to have cancelled back in NOVEMBER! They spent $640 at that web site. So obviously the bank screwed up. But I also emailed the web site (there was no phone number) to tell them that this was a fraudulent charge, but they posted it anyway! So now I get to deal with that on top of everything else!

David's football team lost another player over the weekend. And I think they are losing David. While I do not typically encourage quitting a team, in this case it is very justified. I have tried contacting the league regarding my issues with the coach. Other parents have also done the same. David did not want to go to practice yesterday. I talked to one of the other parents last night and she and her husband (who had been helping coach) agreed with me. Her husband probably won't even continue coaching. I will get him into the ASU football camp and see what else I can get him involved in until Freshman football starts at Mountain Pointe High School.

The canaries that my mom has temporary custody of (some were mine before I moved to Phoenix and the others were Steve's before he moved to Phoenix) had babies!! They are about a week old and seem to be doing well! I will post updates as I get them from my mom!

when i did a google search for "screwed by twinshoppe.com" you site came up. My $40 is miniscule in comparison to your credit card problem. I'm curious thought if you ever got anywhere with them. I tracked down a bit of information about the owners, heard from them once, but never received my order. Please email me at stephneighbors@yahoo.com if you have any information that might help me.
