Thanks to everyone. You are making me feel better.

So far out of the insurance companies I look at they are cheaper on the home but more expensive on the auto part. I like my auto where it is, I think my best bet is to switch home insurance, I just don't know how it will put me behind even more than I am. I have never missed a mortgage payment or any payment that I have ever had and it worries me that something is going to go wrong.

You do your auto and home on the same insurance? Why not think about breaking them up? I get better rates this way. I am not a good driver. I am on my 4th license. I have a DWI and hate saying it. But there are still companies out there giving me great rates. I had been given good advice not to keep my home owners and auto on the same insurance. Check in to that.

This site sucks! Why do I always say things that embarrass me or make me feel like I should hide under a rock? Grr.r... I guess maybe if I can say my mistakes and someone learns then its good right.

That is very good Sunny, it takes a lot to say what you said and it does tell a story to help me. It should make you feel better.

My insurances are separate as of now.

Smart people learn from their own mistakes... as well as those that others make.

And who hasn't made mistakes?

Sunny, I like you even better than I did before!

Stringer · Feb 3, 2011, 10:18 AM

Sunny, if you don't make mistakes you aren't anything. Learning makes us move forward.

88sunflower · Feb 3, 2011, 11:26 AM

I could write a book on mistakes as I am sure we all can. Just some things I am not so proud of. But if it helps others I spill it in shame in hopes to grow.

Now apple pie all around.

Trust me... we all have our dirty little secrets we aren't proud of.

I know.
Funny as you get older you hear them. I have heard some family secrets I prefer not knowing. Some things are better left unsaid.

Now, I was watching my weather last night and the talk of the town was Chicago. Poor Stringer. They showed Lake Shore Drive and all the abandoned cars. Yikes we didn't get it that bad. I kept thinking of him.

Hey!! You weren't worried about me? I'm even closer to Chicago than he is! Because of the drifts, I can't see his house from my back porch any longer!

It took my son three hours to clear his driveway and sidewalk and front porch/porch steps yesterday afternoon using only a shovel. My husband and other son needed almost two hours to clear our driveway, etc. while using shovels and a snowblower. The village snowplows keep plowing snow in front of the drives, so there is continual shoveling of that.

We so want spring, but then there will be the melting and flooding...

So nice that you are thinking of me Sunny for whatever reason. :)

What I understand there were over 150 cars stuck on Lake Shore Drive by the lake. I live in the suburbs west of Chicago now but for 4 years I lived at Lake Point Tower right on the Drive... Glad I am out here now. However my driveway is plowed but not the street so I still can't get out, there are 5 foot drifts in the street.

I saw that... what moron abandoned his truck with the widows open? The one with the entire inside full of snow I saw in the paper.

It is a fact: we always worry about you... :):)

At least you have had your street plowed!!

I saw a photo of one with the driver door open. The wind was so bad, and the snow was blowing everywhere, every which way, with visibility down to nothing. All anyone who was outdoors Tuesday night cared about was getting to shelter. I'm guessing there is a good explanation for how the truck was left. I can think of several.

Why anyone would put it down in the fist place is a question... and why they couldn't take a moment to put it back up is another.

Having to abandon it I can understand... its why they put it down and didn't put it back up that made no sense at all.

Stringer · Feb 3, 2011, 01:30 PM

I heard that it was a city bus and you know they only hire the best.

smoothy · Feb 3, 2011, 01:33 PM

I couldn't tell what it was there was so much snow inside it... looked like a pickup... could have been a bus however.

Hell, I don't even leave my windows down in summer on a sunny day and I live in a safe reasonibly crime free neighborhood.
