It's Back...

 

Fix-It February is in full swing.  So much has broken then needed repaired or replaced.  This has been an expensive month for us.  The month is almost over.  The van's back, but that cost us a lot.  Hopefully, nothing else major will happen to it, before we can afford something newer.

So far, there's zip on our plate for today.  It needs to stay that way.  Both of us have had & still have too much going on.  We need a day of nothing.  This month has been tiring, expensive & frustrating.

That's it for today, take care.

Updates, Mention & Happy V-Day...

The car is back, but that was expensive.  Still, we need it functional.   We'll take the van in late, next week.  I'll need to get labs drawn next Wednesday or so.

I forgot to mention that yesterday was my strokeversary.  It's been 7 years since the event.  So far, things seem to be doing alright for that matter.

Happy Valentine's.  I hope it's everything you need it to be.  Take care.

Need A Nothing...

 

This last week was hard on my household.  It was more of what this Summer had to dish out;  hard, hot & expensive.  The weather wasn't the worst thing this season, it was everything else.   The animal issues & all the breaking.  

We need at least a day of nothing, nothing happening, breaking, costing, etc...  We are both exhausted & beyond frayed.  There needs to be time recuperate or we're going to have some real issues with our well being.

That's all for now, take care.

Needs To Stop...

 

Once again the car screwed up.   This time it needed a new battery.  There went almost $300.  Batteries are outrageously priced.   Of course it couldn't just be, you need a new battery.   They needed to test it.  Too bad their testing device was broken & had to be replaced.  That added over an hour.  There went a simple Thursday.

Here's hoping today goes well.  My roomie has an appointment later.  It'd be nice if there was no drama.  Take care.

Cars & Labs

 

The car should be fixed today.  There's a lot more money spent.  My labs should be here today or tomorrow.  Either way, that will get done.  This has been a busy, hot & costly August.  

Between the orange stain & his fug clown show, there hasn't been a lot of articles.  No one asked for or benefits from their intrusion.   Hopefully, this is just a blip.

That's about it for this morning, take care.

Busy Hot Monday...

 

We have a busy morning in front of us.   We have to go shopping, run some errands, pay a bill & then take the car to the mechanic.  This will all be done in the van, which is hot.  Then we have to wait to see what needs to be done to the car & how much that will cost.  I'll need labs drawn mid week.  My roomie will have to see about a redo appointment.  This is going to be a hot, irritating & expensive week.

So much for a nice August.  That's all for now, take care.

Mid Sunday...

 

This week isn't going to be fun.  We have to take the car in again.  My roomie basically has to have a redo on her appointment.  I also need labs drawn for  my telemedicine appointment in early September.  This week is going to crammed, expensive & hot.

I don't have a lot to add beyond that.   Take care.

Never Ending...

 

Being 58 has been like being at a really bad buffet where they keep loading your plate with things you never wanted.  There's been more of the typical crap like car stuff & house crap.  Then there were trips to the vet for both cats & now we're down to just Millie.  It's been hurry up, wait, spend a lot & stress even more.  Add to that, the crappy people of this country elected that orange bastard.   Him & his ilk are always  a threat.

My SAD hit early last year & I think it will again.  I'm really noticing the changing light.  I've got labs to be drawn & a telemedicine appointment coming up.  Big, new stress could be lurking on the edge.  I won't say much about it, because I'm not sure of anything.  I just know, I don't trust the situation.  I could be wrong, but so little goes our way.  During all of this, my roomie has had several ongoing health matters she's been dealing with.  They seem to be going well, but they take effort & planning.

We haven't really had our normal holiday routine since COVID.  We're trying, but things just aren't cooperating.  58 has been about stress, expense, lose, worry & exhaustion.  Life needs more off ramps.  I need to step away from this plate that things keep piling crap on.  I've had way more than my fill.

Less Please...

 

From before it began until it ended, July was busy, hot & expensive.  It flew by in a steamy, cost ridden blur.  I'm hoping August will slow down a bit & have less expenses.  

For the moment, we have nothing planned for today.  We'll finish bills & run errands tomorrow.  This is a labs month for a telemed appointment in September.

A few years back, we had a really great August.  It'd be nice if this month was a repeat or at least close.  We need a break from the whizzing around & ending up with less.

Take care.
