Wait... were my cards right again, and the Ace of Diamonds provided you with that needed income?

Why was it reduced?

because 1] i took it before age 60, 2]i took it without having worked the full 30 years, and 3] they also deducted 2 years from my total years of service countable for pension bennies because i was in a "temp" status which doesn't qualify for pension coverage.

Think positively: You got a pension before you turned 60 and even without working the full 30 years, even though you were a temp for two years!! WOOT!! !

thank you

that is EXACTLY what i'll be doing to my extra pennies from now on, putting 'em in the piggy

I'm grateful for George Harrison, for music, and for my freedom.

Food, particularly chicken, potato (and almonds the foods we get from it), and curry. And Pepsi Max

Food, glorious food

Energy drinks because energy drinks are the closest I'll ever get to drinking alcohol given that I am on three anti-seizure medications.

That me and my husband have enough in income to make a comfortable living.

That my parents are here to support us.

That I even have a car and don't need to make car payment.

There are plenty of free things or cheap things to do but it will only cost gas to get there and back.

I can use google rewards and earn money and use that money to buy anything in the google play store or on youtube.

I can use Microsoft rewards and earn points and use it in my Disney Magic Kingdom game.

I can earn some extra money online with my Onlyfans page and someone likes buying additional photos from me.

I'll probably be much more grateful once I retire on January 2nd, 2023.

As for now, I'm grateful that I have a roof over my head, and an air-conditioned office to work in.
