New month, new financial year. I can tell, the bank is too busy to let me view my credit card account. Still waiting, waiting, for the PayPal registration to appear so I can finally pay for our holiday. Extortionate Paypal won’t let me use their service until I pay a measly $1.95 fee — a fee that’ll end up around $10 by the time currency conversions and bank charges for daring to use overseas funds have applied.
We’re getting woefully behind in the pasta calendar promise. With a little frantic shopping last night, I’ve finally managed to make the May meal — in July. Now we’re only a month behind. Part of the problem is that it’s a northern hemisphere calendar, ingredients have weird names, and aren’t available in Melbourne in the winter!
