05/21/2011: "The End of the World"

Well the world didn't come to an end today so I guess I have to make the best of what's happening. I'm way behind in all my accounts because of the rain, but at least I got the winery neat and tidy for the wine tour this weekend. They gave me a raise for the extra mowing I have to do now that the manager is no longer there who did this extra work.
I'm also on the foreclosure list with my mortgage company even though I paid a law firm to handle the modification $2600.00. All they did was take my money and have me fax them monthly bank account statements and profit and loss statements they forwarded to my mortgage company, and now they have stopped answering my emails and phone calls, since my mortgage company sold my mortgage to an inhouse company.
When I tried to find out where I stand now they just kept transferring me to another number, after 4 transfers I had to hang up and go to work, so I still don't know what's happening. I hope Obama's help for homeowners will get me somewhere now since I don't know what to do. They'll have to carry me out kicking and screaming if they think I'll ever leave my house to a foreclosure.
My daughter must think I don't know anything about raising babies. i wonder how my 4 children have turned out to be wonderful human beings. When I mentioned that the baby doesn't seem to be gaining enough weight and she should feed him with a real nipple instead of a plastic nipple cover to keep her nipples from being sore, she told me her neighbor friend used the cover for 10 months and her child is fine. So even though I'm 65 and her friend is 25, she must know best.
They also don't talk to him enough. The baby has never cried when I change his diaper but whenever they do it he screams. His first 3 months are the most important time of his life. If he thinks no one is listening to him, they'll get the message for the rest of his life. One thing I know is how to raise a wonderful human being. I may have screwed up here and there but my children have turned out great.
