Am I am healer over achiever?
Mar. 7th, 2014 09:38 amThis morning I feel way way way better. There are still store spots when I poke them with my tongue but wow. It's a huge difference. I woke up about 4 and it hurt even then so I took a couple of ibuprofen and went back to sleep. I slept really well all night (I LOVE this adjustable bed) and now - 9 am - I feel so much better that it's amazing. No leaden face, no throbbing. It almost feels like I could chew if I were really careful. Maybe I can eat the dinner I took out of the freezer on Tuesday (pork chops with pears and potatoes).
Maybe I can even go swimming. The West Seattle pool opens at noon. Maybe.
I do need to walk over to the post office. But, that's about it for half to's.
I am so lucky to have the time and means to wallow in recovery. And it looks like I might just beat that Bad Day 4 with my Bad Day 2 and call it good from here on out.
I got two prescriptions filled this week with my new insurance. Neither were expensive but I was only charged about 20% of the cost. Yeah. The two I had filled via Walgreens mail order are still 'in process' and the insurance website does not yet show any claims so I was not sure my insurance had really kicked in. But now I know it has. And that means that at least for a year and maybe longer as long as Premera does what I need, I may not have to worry about insurance shit again! Whew.

Mar. 7th, 2014 04:17 pmToday is the first day that it has actually been not cold in this living room for a while. It's warm enough for short sleeves but I don't want to have to look at my bruised arms if I don't have to and it's not that warm yet. But, it's very close to a door open day.
I'm not delighted and not disappointed. I'm ok with it being a little warmer and I'm ready for baseball but I so hate the idea of Summer and losing my view into my neighbors when the Tree That I Hate gets leaves. But, regardless of how I feel about it, it's going to happen so I'm going to roll with it.
In the mail was a bill from the dentist. For $115. So, I'm guessing that when I asked before I left "How much do I owe you?" They thought, 'well, hey, let's not tell her all of it!!'. I am not impressed. They have better not give me shit about putting it on my Discover card. I want it all there so I can easily track and find it plus, I want the cash back. I sent an email with the card info but I suspect they have gone for the weekend. A battle for Monday, I suspect.
I decided against the pork chop for dinner after doing some chewing at lunch. I opted for a less chewing option - a great casserole that Anita made.
I'm thinking about another stroll downtown tomorrow - bus down, walk back. I want to check out some stuff in Bed Bath and Beyond and also Target. Should be a nice little outing. There is a soccer game at the stadium tomorrow at noon so there will be no getting the car out much before about 3 or 4. No biggie. I don't have anywhere I need to drive.
My Tivo is getting full again. And it has rebooted twice since I got the new router so I still think it may die yet. At least it makes it easy to decide what to what next: 1. Is it available anywhere else (online, Netflix, Amazon, etc) ? 2. Is it something that I really really really want to see? If 1 is yes, then watch all the 2-1's first then the 2+1's then the junk.
