what a gorgeous day! I took my plants outside to spray and give them a water bath and sit in the sun. Yesterday when I went to the courthouse, it was so windy I remembered every March I try to fly a kite..maybe I can do so with Louis next weekend, my beauteous Grandson.
the cats are sitting outside in the sun and all is well. in living upstairs in a huge slant ceilinged attic of a 1934 home, with sun windows later put in the ceilings, even going thru raggedy old dusty papers is fun. I am still waiting to find a government bond my aunt gave me as a graduation gift. I have never seen it as many times as I look, and it maybe have been tossed years ago. Treasure hunting is paying off, pictures Russ and Brooke drew…I am reading a book about Mandalas and they say a healthy kid will draw circles when he is young and turn those circles into sun or big round faces, or bodies, even if nothing else is in proportion, big circles are the starter, that is how these pictures are.
when I walk to my bank, it is sad. I remember banks in Elmhurst when I saw a kid, patterned glass ceilings, marbled columns and floors and counter tops, frosted glass between tellers, gold toned braces holding the glass…
I heard on MSNBC yesterday that banks earned 67% of the national profit last year. I don’t exactly know what that means, but it made sense when they were talking about it. On WGN Chicago radio this morning, John Williams show, he had banks and horror stories as the topic again, such monsters they are. You can download the podcasts of his shows and hear it yourself.
As for my,my Senator Tim Johnson, on the banking committee, is working on my hoo ha with the wasp nest of Wells Fargo lying to me, and then each person telling me a different thing of what I did wrong to not lock in the lower interest rate. As a nurse who has taken doctor orders for 35 years, I have the sense to take notes and go thru them with the caller, check off a list, and ask when it is done if there is anything else I need to do,and he said, “nope, that is fine.”
I am glad I have a senator who will get involved and have the letter from him to prove it. the attorney general of Illinois apparently is not getting involved. I can hear birds by my skylight twittering away in the sun..
