Beware of the Sliding Glass Door
This morning I accidentaly closed the sliding glass door on my miniature daschund's tail. His name is Speed. He was named after the movie with the same name and because he was so speedy when he was a puppy.
Anyways, he was yelping loudly and I felt awful! I cradled him in my arms for about 5 minutes, while massaging his belly until he was his usual hyper self again.
This incident reminded me of how one of my credit card companies slammed the sliding glass door on my credit card payment.
I paid the credit card payment on time or so I thought. Yet the company held the payment until Monday because the due date "just happened to fall" on a SATURDAY. This unfortunate circumstance meant my payment was late.
Since my payment was late, I was forced to pay a $35 dollar "late fee". To make matters worse, that "little" $35 dollar fee caused my account to overdraft, resulting in, you guessed it, another $35 fee.
May my little story serve as a friendly reminder to "Beware of the sliding glass door" !!!
