We are BACK!

Life with out your laptop is horrible. How did we exist? Well I am back to blog and surf as I want. Whew!
During my time down, I purchased a new horse. But I couldn't wait to share with my fellow readers, my recent experience. I found a horse on craiglist (CL) that sounded promising. The price was right, the horse sounded right. What could go wrong? I gathered a few friends and we made the trip to Redding. Well, actually we stopped in Cottonwood to grab a bite to eat and await the directions. Meanwhile I was getting mixed feelings about the seller I was dealing with. She sounded like a child, but swore she was an adult. lol. (Hmm,... first clue?) The seller was supposed to call me at 4 whe she got off work to give me directions. I'd already be on my way to Redding to meet up with her. SHe couldn't give me the address yet, her Mommy didn't give her permission. Huh, you'd think she would have called ahead since we made these plans the day before! But ya know, thats just me. What do I know? She told me she would call me back with the location when her Mom said it was ok. I'm getting a bad feeling now. We waited another hour, well ya know you and your friends get to gabbing time can pass. SO I call the seller back, she told me was still waiting! I told her I didn't have all day. She promised to call me right back. She never called me back, infact she turned her cell phone off. A flake as expected. The girls and I went shopping and when I returned home later.... guess what I found? The horse relisted for $300 more. Now see, CL time stamps your add. She POSTED this new add WHILE WE WERE WAITING ON HER! I felt sorry for the horse. To be held captive my such a crazy lady. And btw.... crazy lady was part of her email! Bwaahaaaa! OMG I should have known! Well, we certianly got a good chuckle out of it. Live and Learn.
