This week has been CRAZY & it's only Tuesday! Calgon, Take me away!!!!
First, the Doctor/stomach...... Woke up Sunday morning feeling totally normal for the first time in a week. Appetite back(as is evident in my eating) After cycle shop(story to come) went to Dr. Wt was 172 in clothes heavier than my WW WI clothes, so I was ok with it. BP was 130/84 which is outstanding for me in a DR. office - I'm typically mid 140's over low 90's - VERY WHITE COAT syndrome. I can actually FEEL my BP raising & my pulse as I pull up & walk in. Have forever. Anyway, DR came in & asked what was wrong. I told him I was better, but had been having stomach problems. He asked me if I wanted to cancel or discuss it. Bottom line is he says I basically had an attack of Acid Reflux for about 24 hrs, re irritated it before it was healed, etc. Pushed, poked, prodded, listened & gave me 15 sample nexium pills to 'take or not', but they were the stronger dosage than he really wanted. Come back if I keep getting this. All in all, good news, but I wasn't overly impressed. Seemed like an OK Dr, but I like my lady better.
Now, I digress......Sunday didn't do much other than a bit of Ebay & the necessities.
Monday morning DH took off work (which he never can seem to when I ask - oh well) to go to the cycle shop. He fully intended to pay sticker price. NOT!! All the way there he was talking about what he would miss from his old bike, complaining about no fairing, etc, but got MAD at me when I suggested maybe he should look some more. If we're spending 7 - 8K on it I wanted him to be sure & be able to ride it almost year round. Got there, & I was left to do everything while he browsed. I ended up getting a price $500 less, so Ok - still $7000, + needed new helmet. 1/2 way thru the process he got upset & was swearing at me. Made my day! They wanted him to pick out any extras so they could finance in - said he didn't need anything. However, this morning, he decided that he won't be able to take his lunch anymore, as he has no saddlebags, etc. to hook his stuff down to. Wonderful - add about $300/month to the payments for lunches! Plus, eating out is NOT good for him! And he needs a backrest/pad, maybe a wind screen, but they only make "really small, useless ones". All of which will EASILY be another $1000 or more! Yesterday he had the GoldWing towed home - $100+ again, until he decided what to do with it - maybe pay the $1000+ to fix it if possible, plus at least 1 more towing charge in hopes of selling for at least the cost to repair. Whatever!!!!!
My finances are really taking a hit between vacation, DS18 graduation, both DS birthdays, needing a new computer, Back to School, Bug breakdown & now cycle stuff. UGH!!!!!! I always stress about taking out of savings, but basic pay just doesn't cover it! Oh well, savings & retirement are overrated anyway! Does no good to stress over it, but hard not to.
DS18 started college today. Haven't heard from him since he called before class to let me know he arrived safely on his cycle. I'm hoping I can get some details out of him!
DS21 finally got a paycheck and has his checking back in the positive - at least temporarily. He may even be able to pay me a couple hundred toward his latest part of indebtedness to me. I HOPE!! And, please pray, as there is a CHANCE he may be able to get a promotion which would put him on salary & give him benefits. Since his boss quit a few months ago, corporate had brought in a 20-something female to run the conversions/facilities. She walked in & quit yesterday afternoon. At the time they had said the plan was that she would stay until he was trained, but nothing ever came of it. Hopefully this is his opportunity.
He was off F - Sun and they were filming the movie "love 'n Dancing" at the center where he works. They called workers in as they needed more extras & he got to be one. He was excited as he & a girl were filmed several times walking together in a hallway. Oh boy!
DD is doing OK with school so far. Just tired all the time as she's not used to it. Working 4 - 7 4 days and then on Saturdays.
DS18 just pulled in, so I'll finish up tomorrow.
Thanks for checking on me & caring!!!!
