Oh this was priceless! Got a weird error message on my printer about the printer head. I was worried. Looked up the code on line, and the instructions on the HP site were basically "turn it off (unplug it) and turn it on!! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Never expected that message from HP support!!

How can hospitals (or doctors) offer services and not know how much they cost? I have to pay 20% of a procedure’s cost, but no one, not the clinic, doctor, insurance company know what it will cost. They don’t know if I need 15 treatments or 30. All they know is that I’ll be charged for the doctor’s co-pay plus the clinic fee every time. When I went for a consultation (no treatment, labs, anything, just talking to the doctor for 15 minutes) it was $2700 (not making that mistake again). We are now at a standstill as I won’t go unless I know what it will cost and they can’t tell me what it will cost until I go.

We only know our neighbor who is kitty corner behind us from casual conversation across the yard. Yet when they discussed calling the electric company about removing a tree limb from a wire, the neighbor felt comfortable saying something very racist to my H. Sometimes we forget how different we are from a lot of the people in our area … and then there it is. I guess we know for sure that we aren’t missing anything by not knowing the guy better.

Sitting in an oil change place and it doesn’t give me a lot of confidence that the guy reeks of weed. I guess I should be thankful that he’s not the main one doing the oil change, just the guy interacting with the customers.

Glad I wasn’t with DH at lunch when one of the attendees said, of his place at the lake, “we don’t have alarms or cameras. If someone comes on our property, we just shoot them”. You probably don’t know that our family was affected by gun violence, but I would have told you. Hopefully politely.

Today my doctor called in for a prescription ointment for me. The pharmacist said it would cost me $1200 for the 2% that my doctor prescribed for because it wasn’t covered by my insurance, but if it is for 2.5% then my copay would be $20. This is just really messed up.

Yes, those are tears, DH, but not due to your leaving the cabinet doors open again. I’m reading one of Jim Gaffigan’s books, probably the funniest man on earth right now. I love you, Jim Gaffigan. You right my world.

Taking the day off from packing my mother up for her move next week; I needed a personal day! It had been frustrating and overwhelming for all as she is so negative and fights us about every item. My heel hurts, which I am hoping is just bruised and a day off my feet will help.

So when my niece texted that she was in the neighborhood and wanted to stop for a visit, I lied and said I wasn’t home. :lying_face: She is sweet, but I just couldn’t deal with her as she can be a bit much at times, and I just wanted to be alone. She would have been hurt if I said I didn’t want to see her or needed to be alone, so saying I wasn’t home was just easier.

Dude. You said you were going to do it, but you didn’t. I found a work around. But you “don’t drink hot drinks” so mugs don’t work for you. Seriously?

I am so sorry that I missed your call tonight. I can’t believe that your husband is dead. What a shock. RIP.

You’re not a very good liar. Are you sure this is the time to try it?

To the inventors of Bluetooth headphones, you rock! Thanks to your invention, I can enjoy listening to the sound of the creek in the ravine instead of rabid Fox and CNN heads my husband loves to listen to so much! I’m really enjoying the soothing sounds of nature and my glass of wine on the deck next to my news-obsessed husband! Love such peaceful January evenings. :heart:

2 extra cats and a dog, to go along with our 2 cats, is trouble.
Didn’t think there would be fur flying after 5 days, but my poor diabetic old lady had (her) fur flying. We think she’s seriously sick too. Not a good day.

Same person has cut my hair for over 40 years. I don’t do anything extra, just a simple cut, no coloring etc. Hairstylist retired end of 2023. Just went to new stylist for simple cut. Yep, ruined. Will take months to grow some of this out to get back to my liking. Ugggggh. My hairstylist did not ask for my permission to retire, should be a requirement :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Being tech support for my elderly parents just might be the thing that does me in. Every time the phone rings in the middle of my work day and I see it is them, I stop what I’m doing and answer, as at their age and in their health, it could be anything. 9 times out of 10, it ends up being, “I can’t get the computer to start” or “How do I use netflix again?”… :upside_down_face: It makes me crazy.

Your tone here is simply dreadful. Honestly you should stop commenting. If you spoke to me or my child that way we’d have a real problem.

Yay! Daughter and son-in-law gifted me (not an Apple product user) Apple TV+! I can finally watch Ted Lasso at my leisure, not attempting to watch the whole thing in the free week available.
