I was hoping I wasn’t going to have to do this but December is difficult and yesterday someone tried to use my bank account to spend $378 on a company in Germany. So my card is canceled and I can’t even use the small amount in my account to pay bills.

Always and forever 🍎

Also I love your passion for the subject 😌
