Man it was hot today. Long, hot day. But all in all, it went pretty darn good this weekend. The garage sale was a success. My sister took Saturday duty and they had a ton of people and sold a lot of the big items and made a whopping $500 for the day! So awesome….

Holy Crap It’s Hot
Had to duck inside for a few minutes to cool down. I was getting overheated. Turns out the reason I’m so hot is that it’s a feels-like of 110F outside!! Holy hell that’s hot!! Slow day so far. About $11 in sales and hardly anyone by. Jeez, I hope it picks up. We still have…
End of the Week
It’s the end of another week and we’re in the final days of July. Hard to imagine it’s almost August. Tomorrow, we have the big garage sale at Mom’s house. I’m heading up there when Love gets home to bring up a few more items and my sister had more items to bring up as…
Stuffy Nose and Stupidity
Man, I don’t know what gives lately but the last few days my nose will NOT stop being all stuffy! I’ve been blowing it non-stop and it just keeps right on coming. I can’t breathe so it’s hard to sleep and it hits in waves and when it does, I’m just miserable. Pollen counts only…
1:30am
I’ve been sitting staring at the title line for 15 minutes trying to start the blog but given that it’s about 1:30 in the morning, nothing is coming to me. Just a simple entry with brief update from the last few days. Saturday – As you probably saw in the last post I stopped and…
At least BP meds are working!
If I’m forced to deal with the crappy side effects of the Labetalol, at least the good news is that it’s helping! Text msg from M Posted via email from memoryanddream’s posterous
Overdid It Yesterday
Headed up to Mom’s yesterday to help sort, organize and price all the various items for the garage sale next weekend. Several people donated a ton of items in a large range of categories, so there was a lot to go through. It started to rain almost immediately after we began so we were working…
Huge PhoenixFire Designs Update
So I’ve spent the whole afternoon updating my shop! Wide variety of items in a range of prices. Here’s a peek at some of the items available. Click any image for more information about the item and how to buy it.
Wednesday
WordPress taunts me. It starts off with “Enter Title Here” and on many days, I sit and stare at the title box for long stretch of time, unable to come up with something clever to put there. Today, you can clearly see, was one such day as I eventually gave up and just entered the…
Insurance!!
I got wonderful news today. The letter from the Pre-Existing Insurance Plan (PCIP) came today. And I’m APPROVED! As of August 1st, I will have medical insurance which WILL work on my pre-existing gynecological problems and which WILL be able to be used toward my surgery. As you can see, I need to immediately pay…
Post Appointment Update
Had my appointment today for the one-week follow-up on the blood pressure medication. BP was 128/82 and doc was very happy with where I was at. (Considering a week ago it was 160/100.) He also did just a simple external pressing on my abdomen to see how the tumors felt and he was impressed with…
Migraine
Ugh, migraine today. First in awhile. Took an Imitrex a coupe hours ago. Has helped pain but still don’t feel well. One week follow-up with doctor tomorrow at 1pm for blood pressure medication. I’ll update after that. Haven’t tested my BP in a few days. Haven’t been out of the house honestly. Made a bunch…
PhoenixFire Designs Shop Update
Well, we’re about 7 weeks into this unpaid medical leave bit and I’m getting nervous about the ever-decreasing balance in my account. I’ve been trying to get new items listed inbetween medication side effects, a/c failures and doctor’s appointments so I thought I’d profile some of the newer items and available items to help drum…
A/C Problems Continued
Jeez, the maintenance guy just left after 45 minutes again. I had to call the office because it was 80F (27C) in here and the a/c wouldn’t turn on no matter what I set it on. So he came out, took the whole wall unit apart and changed a capacitor. It’s running again but now…
I Hate My Appartment Complex
Last night, I noticed our A/C was starting to freeze up when the A/C kept running non-stop for an hour and it was getting warmer in the apartment. It’s done this regularly for the 6.5 years we’ve lived here and pretty much nothing ever gets done about it. I know exactly what to do at…
