HUGS to those in the midst of crisis. 
Life is hard enough without the added chaos.

I, too, have a password book. Actually, it's an address book which makes it very handy for alphabetizing the accounts and the accompanying passwords. Much needed as there's no way to memorize all of them and retain for years afterwards.

A little happening here...
Yesterday I was delivering hatching eggs and decided to turn on the air-conditioner. Fine, but it was warm, so I turned it up to the max and HORRENDOUS NOISE!!! Well, that's not right. I had been to Jiffy Lube the day before and thought maybe they hadn't after their systems check latched in the air-filter properly (sometimes -- pet peeve -- they can be lax on their details.) So the tech entered via the glove box and pulled out the cabin air filter and it was filthy, full of plant debris and had a big hole in it (so, obviously, they hadn't checked it the day before.) Then they scoped down into the air-con fan drum and couldn't see anything, but the noise was still present. I sat in the waiting area while they dissembled the housing unit and then the tech came in to show me the genesis of the noise... A mouse had entered the unit and had been Cuisinarted into mouse chowder by the fan blades. EWWWWW! (I think the guy was a little too much thrilled by this discovery. "I've heard of it happening, but I thought it was a shop urban myth!") The nice folks at Jiffy Lube then used solvent to get the mouse bits, fur and smears off the blades and drum, reinstalled it and a new cabin filter, and only charged me for the filter!
Afterwards, I got a Febreeze air vent. I'm hoping no mouse bits migrated into the vent tubes to create a rotting stench-of-death odor later. My trusty 2005 car has 186K miles on it and runs great, but Hubby is suggesting -- and possibly the universe is hinting -- that *maybe* it is time to think about getting a new(er) vehicle.
