  • Looking forward to a day full of little accomplishments. #
  • @toastfloats That's what solar cookers are for. =) in reply to toastfloats #

  • @nics_dolcevita Didn't a bunch of papers get published a few years back suggesting iron was a limiting factor for algae growth? #digg #ocean in reply to nics_dolcevita #
  • RT @gbmiii "If there is such a phenomenon as absolute evil, it consists in treating another human being as a thing." Listening, BofA? #BofA #
  • @tchrischan @bubbva Whether current, or behind… I think the fact is, they don't actually *do* modifications. TARP? What's that? #BofA #

  • Wrangling computers to get the kids set up. Amazing how much tech is involved in simply watching movies sometimes. #

  • http://bit.ly/ihotY Domestic violence victims have a "pre-existing condition"? #
  • Fighting off stomach cramps of stress with homemade veggie soup. It's gonna be a rough night. #
  • On the phone with B of A. OMG, they've chosen me for a survey. HA! #BofA #
  • B of A custserv won't deal with me. They want me to deal with collections… the same folks cussing at me on Friday. Getting a supervisor. #
  • Custserv supervisor transferring me to collections… but staying on the line to prevent bullying. Hm. #BofA #
  • B of A refuses to do loan modification on anyone who's declared bankruptcy. "Well that cancelled your debt so you must have free cash" #BofA #
  • Apparently, BofA does not understand the concept of "unemployed" nor "TARP". #BofA #
  • The weird cloak and dagger payment plan is also BofA valid. Unreal. #BofA #
  • So… pay them the money, cancel the repo… and then Lawyer Up! #BofA #
  • Also spending the day writing complaint letters to every agency I can find. #BofA #
  • Repo is cancelled, payment received, and the repo folks now think it's OK to laugh and joke with me. As if. #BofA #
  • Loan/Collections dept affirms that they WILL NOT do loan modification for people who've bankrupted. TARP be damned. #BofA #
  • THANK YOU 4 all your support… I am insanely grateful and blessed. And wondering… what do people without friends and resources do? #BofA #
  • As of Oct 12, it is a FELONY for an attorney to accept payment to do a loan modification case. #
  • This effectively prevents attorneys from taking them on. Machiavellian. And Evil. #
  • I will be blogging, with addresses, emails, titles, fax numbers, etc. Let's make this a coordinated effort. Give me a day or two #BofAsucks #
  • And again… thank you one and all. You guys are the best. #
  • @JAMLeadMan yes. Not federal, state. in reply to JAMLeadMan #
  • Amazing how much time I have in the morning when I'm not busy staving off repo. #
  • Go check the google doodle today. How totally cool! #
  • Once Cabo was safe, the news stopped reporting on Jimena. Read ToastFloats for the real story. There's a lot of devastation in Baja. ht … #
  • @JAMLeadMan Check with the CA Bar Assn; I heard about it from my atty, who was there, and that's where he learned it. in reply to JAMLeadMan #
  • Win a new Canon 5DMKII (or $2500 Gift Cert) from @OPGear & Scott Bourne. Pls RT. Details here: http://bit.ly/BqU8N #
  • @jonaiello Keep OO.o away from the chutney. That's all I'm sayin. in reply to jonaiello #
  • Matt Taibbi rocks. Here's his take on the health care debacle: http://bit.ly/XbNQn #
  • It's our ninth wedding anniversary today. Yay Us! #
  • really tired. Really stressed. And trying really hard to breathe through it instead of scream it out. #
  • Aurora just took her first steps, out on the meadow! #

  • @alecmuffett Godforbid children simply learn to drink responsibly, and ignore all advertising. =) That's our strategy, anyway. in reply to alecmuffett #
  • Just found out I'll be able to make it to the Breech Birth Conference after all! YEAH! Time for some serious fomenting of rebellion! htt … #
  • Trying to track down a solid, industrial, hand-crank sewing machine. Any recommendations? #
  • The wiki for OpenOffice isn't nearly as helpful as it appears. Or maybe getting my TOC to hyperlink just isn't in the cards somehow. #
  • @toastfloats Just remember that sailing ultimately smells like WD-40, not like salt air at all. =) in reply to toastfloats #
  • Oh, my, yes. All my mommy peeps, go read this now: http://bit.ly/8zTU4 #
  • Despite not contacting us since May, B of A has just decided to repo our boat. #
  • @jonaiello They are! But the fact that they didn't call us before today somehow means we're late. Really late. in reply to jonaiello #
  • OK, repo delayed. Temporarily. Calls in to my attorney. I wish people understood that bullying and nastiness does not mean you win. #
  • @BofA_help B of A collections just accused me of lying, screamed at me, and threatened me. Can you help? #
  • Scratch that. Repo not delayed. Collections just screamed at me, threatened me, and said "I am coming to get *my* boat on Monday!" #BofA#
  • Crisis is wonderfully focusing to the mind. #
  • @rwilkins74 Thanks for the thoughts. I and my family have our health, and our love, and food, and water, and friends. We'll be fine. =) in reply to rwilkins74 #
  • Press releases prepped. ACORN on speed dial. Camera batteries charged and cards cleared. Packing ditch bags. Anyone have any other ideas? #
  • JIC anyone's unclear… this isn't about nonpayment. This is about them going from "we're handling it" to "we're repo-ing you" w/o contact #
  • @alecmuffett http://bit.ly/14VJdd in reply to alecmuffett #
  • @WmEdwin Liveaboards tend to be wholly unrepresented, sadly. in reply to WmEdwin #
  • @j0ni it's the unpredictability of all this that's so scary. I ask questions, I get cussed at. I can't figure out what's next. in reply to j0ni #
  • @WmEdwin I don't know the ID, but I do have their phone number. 904-987-6330. Google says fun stuff about them. in reply to WmEdwin #
  • @WmEdwin It's not an eviction, it's a repo, that just happens to be on our home. We're a little outside charted territory here. #BofA in reply to WmEdwin #
  • @j0ni yup. I just hate that this is what is required to get a bank that took so much TARP to behave rationally. If I even manage! in reply to j0ni #
  • Attorney called 9PM last night… from the Bar Convention, taking a class on forcing TARP accepters to do loan mods. He'll be here monday. #

Up the mountain, Baby!

Published by ElementalMom under Activism, Birth

I love love love this blog. She’s saying what I’ve been saying for years; there’s a double standard about how birth is viewed when compared to other physical endeavor. Men get scars, and go back out and play. Women get a scar, and OMG they’re banned from birth forever after.

I could go on. But I’ll let the author.
