OK, the most troublesome portion of that bleedin' debt has been temporarily taken care of. Knock down my credit limit, & then raise my rate? We found a way to (ostensibly) screw the bank that pulled these tricks--not my idea, & quite legitimate.

I failed to put in proper piping practice (hey, there's a load of ps) last week & so didn't attend our regular meeting but am trying to make up for this somewhat. As I see it now, my goal is to find the right balance between blowing too hard & not squeezing hard enough!
