President’s Message
Michele Barnard

 

“The creation of a single world comes from a huge number of fragments and chaos.”
— Hayao Miyazaki

As I write this, we have no internet. FiOS is down for some reason, so we have no internet, no TV,
and no “landline” phone. The Verizon technician is scheduled to come tomorrow, so hopefully we’ll
be back to normal fairly soon. It’s odd to not have background noise from the TV, but also kind of
nice.

It’s amazing how dependent we are on technology. My youngest is still in high school, and this year
MCPS decided that ALL students would be issued Chromebooks – which is fine until you have no
internet, and wind up hanging out for an hour at Starbucks to do homework. Telework is more
complicated – I can log in through a hotspot on my work phone, but it’s s..l..o..w.

And still – we have tiny computers in our pockets which can do nearly all of the things. Those who
are higher up the techno-ladder can probably do ALL the things!

So while I do appreciate technology, it’s also nice to unplug. Handwork is a pleasant way to get away
from the electronic world for a while. It’s soothing and calming to sit and hand quilt, and I wonder
every time I do it why I don’t do it more.

Yours in quilting,
Michele Barnard

  30. Loan restructuring – the lender’s actions to change the terms of the loan repayment. These actions are primarily aimed at facilitating debt service. The most common type of restructuring is the prolongation of the loan, in some cases, banks go to reduce the interest rate on loans issued. Most often, borrowers apply to the bank for mortgage restructuring. If you roll over your mortgage, your monthly payment will be decreased, but by increasing the length of your loan, your total interest payments will be higher. As a result, the total amount of payments on the restructured loan will be higher than it would have been without the restructuring.
    If the client wants to restructure his loan, but the bank for some reason does not agree to it, he can try to refinance it at another bank. Some banks refinance loans made by other credit institutions.
