Subject: RE: Springtime In Guam
I'm looking forward to your call Kat.

Today I had a surprise waiting for me at the post office. When I opened the mailbox I found a block of envelopes, 45 of them, all from the same source, the credit card company for the forgotten card. Once I factored those into the mix I came up with a total of $25,913 taken by the thief. I am thinking of writing an open letter to the businesses of Guam telling them what happened and warning them to make sure they are very careful about seeing picture IDs. I intend to put in a statement about the cops not bothering to investigate this and pointing out that approximately $17,000 could have been saved if the police had taken the initiative.

In the meantime I have 45 forms to fill out and send to the credit card company. They were expecting the forms by 10/13. They arrived here on 10/15. Sigh, I guess I better get to work.

On the positive side I brought in the last sooty box and moved the other stuff in under the awning. There are no more boxes to be cleaned. I can now start to organize the stuff inside the house. The first step will be to clear up the living room and make it look more civilized. Then we will see what we will see.
