Wednesday bits

[susandennis]

I'm meeting my friend, Susan, for lunch today and last night I sent her a note confirming when and where.  Just now she replied saying she has news and she's not telling me until we get there and I'll love it.  How mean is that??!!  She is generally nice to a fault.  Now I'm dying of curiosity.  She's too old to get knocked up and I'm sure she and Bill aren't getting married so it must be some news from the start up (where I worked a couple of years ago and she's the office manager) and there is no end to the possibilities there.  4 hours is a long time to wait for juicy skippy.

But, while I wait I can do chores:

Clean up the kitchen.
Take the arms off this chair.
Reconcile Money and upload backup file.

And, Mom just sent an email that the woman at her pharmacy tells her that the new Medicare drug thing will save her a bundle.  I looked into it a while back and decided it was too complicated to fuck with.  I could not even tell if it would save a penny.  But if Mindy - the pharmacist - says we should do it, we should.  Now I have to figure out what needs to be done.  It's the perfect chore - medical mess meets government.  Oh joy. 

I already told Mom that any money we save goes right to my third of the inheritance.  She has no drug coverage now and her pharmacy bill last month was $800. 

And work could kick in at any time.  Thrilling entry, eh?
