You might recall the I posted about a $188 bill back on September 13th. It was the leftover amount for the Radiologist when I went into the ER and was going into collection. It needed to be paid off within 30 days or it was going on my credit. Well, I’m excited to report I…

Palm Tree Trimming
Here’s a very Florida moment for you… I’m sitting here on my computer in my master bedroom when I hear a chainsaw turn on. It’s VERY loud and it sounds like it’s right outside my window. So I go peek out and sure enough if there isn’t a guy with a chainsaw, standing on a…
Autumn Sunset and Autumn Moon
Saturday was the Autumn Equinox; the first day of Autumn and one of two days a year where the length of night and day are equal. It also had a gorgeous sunset here in Florida. And Sunday, I finally was able to do something I’ve never done before; get a decent shot of the moon….
Lost Tuesday
Poor Love was extremely sick yesterday. I was out at the post office and the supermarket picking up dinner when he got home after work. He proceeded to vomit pretty much non-stop for the next two hours. It was awful. Finally, around 7:30pm he finished being sick and pretty much passed out in bed and…
I am Obamacare – The Facts
My famous (infamous?) I am Obamacare image is going around Facebook again. Thousands of comments have been left and sadly, almost a year later, the vast majority of people are still utterly incorrect in their beliefs about what it is, who I am, and what it’s all about. They utterly and completely are working from…
Lunar Cycle
Two new trees are in my shop this week. One is a full moon that looks JUST like the actual moon. The other is a new take featuring a crescent moon instead of a full. There are always so many new and wonderful variations possible! Don’t forget, I also gladly take custom orders. Many more…
Urgent $188 Goal
Hot on the heels of paying off two bills the other day, I get a collection notice. This is the remainder of the bill from the radiologist during my initial ER visit on May 29th. I have less then 30 days to raise $188 to pay this bill off, or it goes on my credit….

Happy Birthday Nanny
Happy Birthday to my Nanny! She’s a whopping 96 years old today. My Mom, Sister and I are heading up to see her this afternoon. (Which is why I’m scheduling this ahead of time; I won’t be home to post it later.) Nanny is my maternal grandmother but has never gone by “grandma” or anything;…
Tilt Table Results
Briefly, because I need to get to bed, Love had his tilt table test. I thought it was going to be multiple movements, crazy angles, etc., but it was just them strapping him to a table then tilting it to 90 degrees to simulate standing. The idea is that people tend to lock their knees…
Continuing Vertigo Saga
Love was at the Neurologist on the 20th again to see if his increase in migraine meds helped. It hasn’t. So now the neuro isn’t even sure it is migraines and wants to try a few other things. First up is a tilt table test with a cardiologist. It was originally scheduled for last Thursday…
