* I haven't left the house much lately. I've been enjoying the cooler temps around here since last Friday though and not having the a/c running. I need to pick tomatoes again today if the rain holds off too.
My hermit time will end tonight when I go to Weis, use the $5 off Q, and get gas with my points(they expire Labor Day I think).
* We spent the weekend putting Hubs' room back together mostly(plus I've been working in the garage too). He's dragging his ass a bit stopping to do other things so not everything is back where it needs to be and out of the way and still in my room or our bedroom.
I hope to have everything in the upstairs relocated and where it needs to be before this coming weekend is over. Then I can share photos of it all.
Really, it's not that great of a change or a beautiful makeover or anything. But I just want it done so I can move on to other issues.
* Tomorrow I go to the Chronic Pain Clinic.
Oh joy!
I need to stay out of ERs. This last time was quite pricey, even with insurance because they ran a bunch of tests I didn't need. I knew what was wrong with me but they had to rule out stuff in their minds because not being my doctor they don't know my history personally and gawd forbid they miss something, I die and they get sued. ;-)
I got two bills, the first one totaled $13,987.35 before insurance.
I added the second bill and it all came to $15,513.35 before insurance.
EEK!
And I had to pay just under $750 in co-pays. ick
And they didn't actually "do" anything to help me at the ER other than give me a valium(and the ER doc wouldn't write me a script for it either, just for a drug that didn't help and he KNEW it didn't help....so worthless).
So let's hope the CPC(Chronic Pain Clinic)is a little more helpful. I suspect it will be A LOT less expensive than the ER. lolz
* I've almost gotten the garage cleaned up enough to hold a stockpile sale in September(depending on the weather). I have filled the living room up with toiletries and a few yard sale type items.
Then after that happens I'll relist my diaper stash on the local tag sale site and start listing stuff on eBay for the Holiday season buying time.
* I went and joined a Dave Ramsey group on Facebook. Stupidest thing I ever did in hindsight! I thought I could help some folks there with questions/issues about money and debt. But really some of these folks are clueless and nothing but a good ass kicking will get them to see the light. lolz
This group is a bunch of prodigious posters and I have to scroll through so many posts to see anything not this group related. As a wise woman once remarked......
* We have decided to drive to LA for Daughter's wedding instead of flying. We ran the numbers and renting a car, gas, motels, food for the trip, extra days to kennel the dogs vs flying is cheaper than plane tickets and cabs/Uber to and from airports, etc. The only problem may be weather in early January on our end(and would also be a problem if we fly out of and into PA). It will be a mad dash halfway across the country and then back in the middle of Winter.
Oh fun.
* Our wedding anniversary is tomorrow, Wednesday. 37 years married.....where does the time go? ;-)
Hubs actually had HAIR back then and I had a very very bad perm. lolz
Sluggy
