Paying a bill with Paypal is so simple and easy and quick.

But today it did not seem simple or easy or quick.

I looked up my password

And then I entered it!

My new password did not work

Upon the screen a message flashed...

It said there was an error

Then it told me to call them.

I have a private number for them.

It's a number that prevents me from spending so much time holding a phone to my ear.

A nice man came on the phone and told me that what I was experiencing was on a Paypal wide level. He said they were not hacked... they have NEVER been hacked. He said there is a glitch in the system and I am not the only one who is experiencing this. He told me that this was a system wide error. Experts are working on it,

I was able to get in to my account use my credit card to send myself the last $20.00 that put us over the $396 mark.

Even though PayPal is having a problem with logins, they were able to lead me through the woods and show me how to send ValueTech their money from the paypal site.

In other words, even though there seemed to be many errors in the process, I made it work and our server has been paid.

I truly wish I could have been so lucky last night and this afternoon when I was trying to post photos of all the items I am selling.

Last night I resized all the photos so they would fit the RMN image uploader. The I uploaded 30 of them, three at a time. I wrote a little about each item and posted it.

The post seemed to go through perfectly. I always check to see if everything in the post went through ok. I pulled up the Reading Room and thought my post would be at the top. It wasn't. It wasn't anywhere... it had vanished into thin air and I lost the three hours or more than I had devoted to this project.

After moving a few more things this morning, I sat down at the desk and started to upload the jewelry and things I am selling. Two hours later I was finished uploading everything and was ready to post. I checked everything to see if I had done anything wrong. I hadn't and so I pushed the "post" button.

It almost seemed as if I saw the post disappear. I swear it just vanished before my very eyes. I pulled up the Reading Room. My post should have been the very first one. It wasn't. Maybe a number of people had all posted at once. I began to look down the list of posts. All the posts had been posted much earlier in the day. Try as hard as I could, I could not find my new post. I finally accepted the fact that I had lost it.

I wrote a note to all of you about the problems I've been having trying to post photos of all the things I am selling. I posted it and then ran out to do some errands.

When I came back I wanted to look at my post to see if anyone had replied. Even that post was not there!

I have wondered if the freeloader upstairs had hired a computer hacker to hack my computer and make it so she could read it anytime she wanted. She bragged constantly about hacking into Sidney Blumenthal's computer and putting a key logger on his computer. I don't know all the things a key logger can do other than read everything on the computer. I don't know if they could do the things that someone or something did to my posts yesterday and today.

Next time I take the time to get the photos ready to post, I am first going to save it in a word document and then l post it.

I'm not getting a lot of sleep these days. I am moving and trying to sell things so I will have money to hire people to move me. It will go much faster if I can hire people. Tomorrow is out because of a doctor's appointment. and Wednesday is out because the freeloader upstairs is suing me in small claims court.

Wednesday night I will try to post the items I have for sale. Most are really lovely.

There are many rings that are size 10. Some are mens and some are womens. And some were worn by both men and women. Some of the women's rings are size 8 and others are size 7.

There are necklaces, bracelets, purses and there will even be a few pairs of shoes... size 7. The purses are all name brands. There are a few that I am unsure are real. The fakes look so good that it's getting really hard for me to tell.

I am going to try to post this now... I'm keeping my fingers crossed and going to bed!

Thank you all so very much
