dear bobby, make sure you use a 'strong' password:

1. at least 8 characters long
2. mixed case
3. include digits as well as letters

i am sorry about this hacking business that would upset me a great deal.

good luck!

it upset me a great deal. i didnt think of mixed case...thank you. today i feel shot. i took luc for a walk and it was so short. i was just so exhausted. I am getting more edgy about when he is going to be picked up. each day i have him the harder it gets. I didn't realize how hard it would be walking him now too. I have lost 18 pounds but i bet i have to lose fifty and not thirty that the pulmonary doctor said.
I can't believe that i have been hacked twice in such a short span of time with paypal and hotmail. really anxiety producing.

they didn't fix it. they just said to change the password since the hackers already had the password. i guess if they wanted they could figure out the new password. sigh

Dear Bobby,
 
Here's a link about passwords.
I am starting to use stronger passwords on the money sites than I did in the past:

http://netforbeginners.about.com/od/...g_password.htm

Include characters.

Frankly, I think it is ok to write down the apt. somewhere in the apt. I used paypal one summer to buy shoes and art and then closed it. I did not feel comfortable for whatever reason. I have not used paypal since.

You could always close the account and open up a new one although it is probably not necessary. Hubby has his paypal account connected to his credit card -- not to his bank account. He thinks that that offers him some degree of protection.

Dear Bobby,

Did Luc go to his next home?
How does the apt. feel without him?

so far nobody has called me. i will call the lady this morning to see what is happening...i am getting paranoid. last night he slept with me and he had his head on my arm...it is so sad. the apartment is going to be so empty without him. i don't know what i will do if this placement falls through. they sound as if they will find him a great home. what if i have to resort to other means and he will not find a great home.
I am blaming myself a lot now.

dear Bobby,

i am sure they will find him a new home. meantime, luc is better off with you than crated. so far things with the apartment are ok - i mean, the only way you'd have to 'resort' to anything is if you got a warning from the building right? but you are not out that much, so luc is not alone that much, so i don't think you need to worry. i understand there are complex reasons for giving him up and that it is for the best, but you can foster him until a good home is found. or am i missing something?

love

i don't think you are missing anything. he is growing more attached but hopefully when he is placed with a new family because he is so young he will easily adopt his new family ...I am afraid to leave him. I am sort of paralysed and am hardly walking him. I am just so down. guilt isn't even a motivating factor. he seems happy. i just feel so rotten and scared. i tried reaching the woman to see what was happening but just got the answering machine.
