So, I just heard from AG’s office & because of the gov shut down they as they said can’t compel them to reimburse me the full amount.

Which means @ExpediaMediaGroup managed to get away with fraud. They reimbursed me exactly half when I had bought cancellation policy when I booked my room in London.

Did I mention that they’re bombarding my inbox with spam. Like I’d book Anything with them again. They send me both spam from their Norwegian site & the American.

I think what @ExpediaMediaGroup did to me is symptomatic of websites without a soul. I am sure the website staff I spoke with was in India. They had a script & are not equipped to handle a real complaint.

No, $292 is a token & shows how little they value their own policies they sell to customers incl. the cancellation policy they refused to honor with me.

Shame on you @ExpediaMediaGroup.

It’s now NYE & the neighborhood is full of bangs. With a dog you don’t look forward to NYE because you know your dog will spend the night fearing for his life.

Scaring dogs is not nice or good. Hence, why I am over fireworks. You’re Not Special you just are not grown up.

I feel for my dear dog that has been cowering in the basement for the last 2 hours. I wish I could make it go away I just can’t & that makes me sad.

I don’t find fireworks anything but bangs & the once that mirror gun fire I like even less. No, I am happy it’s 2019 but you won’t find my husband beating his chest, no he baked pizza & is now making banana bread.

Because life is more than throwing money away to ring in the New Year.

So, we spent Boxing day moving from our rental into our new place. It went without a hitch. No drama. We also got some great help.

I am looking forward to 2019, a new year in a new place. Today I took the bus from the same place but to our new place. It was seemless & no drama. Everyone had a place to sit. No drama.

It was wonderful & stressless. I don’t miss the old bus. All the drama & the drunk students on the weekend. The walk home was chill.

Although the house is full of boxes it’s still quieter than our old place. No stomping in the hallway. No babysitting the laundry. Yipeee.

Here’s a cheer to you & yours, Happy New Year!! See you in a week or so.
