Oh my, each of us sure has to advocate for ourselves when it comes to health problems and tests, meds, etc. I have to call next week about the paper for dh's big, necessary, blood tests, they used to mail them to us, and after the last appt. they could have given it to us there, but didn't either. Then they sent in a prescription a month too early, and that was the end of it, I think they put dh's paperwork away and forgot. I spend so much time on the phone already about that danged H1N1, but we did get the shots. The Health Dept. was shorted over 1,000 units of vaccine though. We only get a once a week newspaper, so barely anyone knew about these shots being there, so I lucked out that I had emailed the Health Dept. over a week ago, just inquiring about the shots. Had to have a doctor note though, and they questioned me several times as to my "caregiving" of dh..........heck, child care people had to get the shots too.
That shooting is scary too Mary, I would have been so worried, as you were. Glad you got your new drapes put up. We just have mini blinds, but we don't look out to the front at all here, just the back.
Nancy, I used to rush around and clean when the "coast was clear" around here, lol. We want to buy another vacuum, have a Sears one that is so darned heavy and hard to push, dh hates it, and I do too!!! Want to get a simple one that doesn't use bags and is lighter. What kind do you like?
Joyce, sounds like your weather is beginning to change. So the carpet people are raising rates again too, especially this time of year, I can imagine them doing that though. At least it's done for awhile again.
hauke, you guys are designers I think, matching colors and planning ahead, just like professionals. Do you watch HGTV??
Deb, I'm wishing your medical group there would get on the ball, sounds like too many cooks spoiling the broth there. Do you ever write down names of the one's that don't do their job right? Your story would be a good tale for someone to write a newspaper article of how health care goes wrong and takes way too long. They have dragged you along, boy oh boy. One time, when dh was in the hospital, I had to grab the doctor by the coat before he could leave to get his attention, but then he did listen to me, they were messing dh up there for awhile. Can your dh put a few choice words in? Sometimes they listen better to a man I've noticed.
Hi Shrl, is there smoke or fog around where you live, perhaps that is causing problems with the sinuses too. We do have some smoke here in the AM when the woodstoves are going, but a breeze usually comes in later on.
We need to go down to the valley tomorrow, this computer I got from my brother is having bad problems so dh thinks I should get a new one that I can count on when we need it. So are driving 2 hrs. down to a Wal Mart and getting something new, and our son will install it on the 14th., if he doesn't have to work that is. If I'm not on at some point, it's because I couldn't get this machine to work.
