Made it to the final round. Going to be 2 weeks before the next round. Waiting is hard, but at least he’s still in the running.
Last night Pete passed peacefully, surrounded by family. I feel lucky, first to have known him, and also to have seen him recently doing two of his favorite things, sharing sushi and watching the Mariners win.
TLDR - just skip right over those posts, and all is good.
This debate makes me sad and frustrated.
It is the end of June… we have yet to use our new mini splits in the cooling mode! They are on, just in the heating mode! This is while the rest of the country is being fried.
Who leaves the clicking sound effect on on their phone keyboard!!??? Ugh!!
Gretchen, PICK UP THE PHONE!!!
In full on panic mode today for a couple of reasons
20 condos in my complex - 17 occupied by delightful owners; 1 by a narcissist attorney who wants last word on everything; 2 occupied by bullies, one of whom is crazy and who has engaged in verbal and physical abuse of another neighbor in the last 48 hours. Suspect her anger issues are being escalated by alcohol. Where are you, karma?

(Unrelated to #1) If you think “healthcare is handled well in America” bc it is business-based, let me introduce you to my son, who was downsized 3 weeks ago and lost his healthcare as well. He and DiL scrambled to replace it at a high cost while his doctors scrambled to find a charity to pay for his next treatment (16K EACH TIME), which they did. But since his insurance is “new” it all has to be preapproved. But the treatment is on hold anyway bc he’s reacted to this new medicine AND THEY CAN’T START ANYTHING NEW until the insurance starts July 1. So he’s now overdue and we are waiting for the relapse to start.
and this is BETTER than before ACA. Before, he would have just been denied coverage and have to rely on getting a job and then waiting for coverage to start , maybe 30 days or maybe 3 months into a new job.
These laws have real impact on real people. CheeseAndCrackers what a month.
OMG, could this presentation be any more boring? Also, please stop talking to us like we are idiots.
You can’t make this stuff up guys.
S2 called to say insurance wants more papers and may delay past July 1
S1 just called to say he also has lost his job.
Not enough ice cream in my freezer today
Oh, my gosh, the previous treasurer left the books in a mess. I think I’ve gotten them straightened out. Then an issue came up (due to the bank giving us bad information, it sure wasn’t my fault) and this woman wrote, " (why I am struggling apply my daily work knowledge to the road association is beyond me [sic]) Happy Friday." Good Lord. She reminds us constantly that she does this kind of work every day. I feel so sorry for her clients.
Thought I’d cracked my “new” iPhone screen, but it was just the glass protector thing. Yay!
Term limits for congress and need an age limit for President. What a nightmare.
I saw one of those Tesla trucks on the road today. OMG. What an incredibly ugly vehicle. It looks worse in real life than in pictures. Some people have more money than sense.
Anyone missing a kinkajou?
We are at DCI to hear and watch the bands. Please stop talking. Please
Couple of things:
- The Acolyte Star Wars series on Disney+ sucks. Whoever did the writing did a pretty bad job. Storyline doesn’t make sense. Parts drag on forever. Some of the dialogue is dumb. The sith guy who showed up…what the heck is that all about? And how come nobody seems to sense disturbances in The Force? How the heck does any of it relate to the rest of Star Wars? It doesn’t.
- (this is not about anybody here) Your kid is going to be an ‘entertainment business’ major. You purposely set up sole custody of your kid with zero child support because you thought that your kid would qualify for pretty much a full ride anywhere. And now you want the dad to cough up money every year for college. And you asked him literally last minute.
What. The. Heck. Some of the required coursework for that major is super dumb. Total waste of time. Good luck. Your kid is going to need it.
Moving my MIL from one AL to another today. Please send good thoughts into the universe for us today … it’s a chore to do it & it’s rough on her.
