A question for any of you with an HSA, please?

I planned badly, and didn’t take into account everything I’d need to pay for, so when the year is finished, I will not have contributed enough to cover everything. Is it possible in the middle of the...

Mom is home from the hospital.

She went to the hospital by ambulance Friday morning because she was really groggy and unresponsive. She’d been kinda out of it Thursday evening when I was there, so my sister stayed with her...

Where did it go?

Didn’t we used to have a link to all the comments we’d made on other blogs? I can’t find it anymore.

We finally got mom to the attorney, too.

Last week, before her hospital trip, she was all gung-ho to go to the attorney and get her will done. So we’d made an appointment for yesterday afternoon, and she insisted that we keep the appointment....

I can’t see with these stupid contacts!!1!

Even first thing in the morning when they’re fresh, they make everything so damn tiny that I can’t see it. And by lunchtime, they’re so dry that it’s all turned blurry. I usually wind up taking them...

Damn it, WordPress.

Just because I comment on someone’s post, that does NOT mean I want to subscribe to that post and get an email every damn time someone else posts on it. That kind of crap should be opt-IN, not...

Gastroparesis?

I was googling some information about digestive enzyme supplements, which a couple people had recommended as something I could try for my stomach issues, and I stumbled across a reference to a...

Missed eclipses and expensive renovations

I completely forgot the eclipse yesterday until about 9:30 when it was too late. We had a contractor in on Saturday to look at our bathrooms, and he recommended a full gut for both, which didn’t really...

Least painful fire drill ever.

Except for the fact that it has been hanging over our heads all day, we just had the quickest, most painless fire drill I think I’ve ever been part of. They’d warned us about it yesterday, and they...

A warning…

Sheesh. I woke up this morning and looked at the clock and thought, oh crap, I should have been up a half hour ago! So I jumped out of bed, ran through the shower, threw on some clothes and dashed for...

I don’t even know what to say.

This is priceless. My sister and her family are visiting from out of town and staying at my mom’s, so we left dad’s car over there for them to use while they’re here. (Mom doesn’t drive.) Yesterday the...

I’m still not sold on progressive contact lenses.

(I’ll spare everyone the Billy Mays caps lock, lol!) The doctor adjusted the prescription from the first sample pair and gave me another one to try, and it did make reading very small print more...

White poo!

Heh. I had my upper GI this morning, with the luscious barium beverage. MMmm… It wasn’t that bad. The barium is pretty bland. Just chalky and ridiculously heavy for the amount of liquid in the cup....

I’m trying new progressive contacts, too.

It’s all on at my house! He adjusted the prescription back to what it was, but he gave me some lenses from a different manufacturer. And this is an extended wear pair. He had to order the daily wear...

I hate to make a new post.

Just because it’ll bump Mr. Gorgeous in the previous post from the top of my blog. Maybe I should just put his picture at the top of every post. Anyhoot, mom is finally getting her swamp cooler...

No, I didn’t go to the Batman midnight showing.

And if I had, it probably wouldn’t have been in Aurora, Colorado. But we heard all the emergency vehicles screaming past this morning at about 1:00. Alameda Avenue, the street the theater is on, is the...
