First thing this morning, before 8 am even, I got a call from the State Disability Office.
I'd had surgery in May and been off work for a month. My doctor and I applied for state disability, the application was accepted, I was sent a check, and I thought the transaction was finished.
The nice Disability Office lady this morning (and she was very kind and nice) said 'no, you didn't send us the extension paperwork for the last week of your disability,' then she PROCEEDED TO TAKE THAT INFORMATION OVER THE PHONE (when is a bureaucracy ever that nice??) then she said 'We will be sending you a check for the last week of your disability, because we didn't pay you for that yet.'
!!!
Well, I'm most certainly onboard now!!
Centipede, thanks for the tip about the pumice. I am reluctant to hit the bowl with abrasive stuff, so I've been using CLR (it's a chemical that dissolves lime and rust). It's made some progress so I will just repeat-use, similar to your suggestion above, until the last of the dirty stuff has come off.
