How's Your Day - May 2014

I just went to scan a document and .... I have a colony of ants LIVING IN MY PRINTER!

Yes. Really.

don't even have the energy to say it loud.

yesterday was our 16th anniversary, but hardly got to see each other at all, on top of that the evening was filled with the glorious sounds of the middle school bands concert (really, actually was quite good). I would be there anyway, since our daughter is in two of the bands that performed, but I also had to work it (sound, lights), so I had to be there for the full event, which negated our opportunity to go out and eat (but we at least did have a 15 minute lunch together window).
Then get home and check the mail.
Y'all may remember me mentioning a couple months back having a tooth extraction. It's needed to be done for months, but more than we could afford. Then tax return came in, got it done. On three separate occasions they assured me after insurance it would cost me between $120 and $130. And indeed, the day of it, they gave me the bill of $128, which I paid.

Now, about two months later, a lovely envelope awaited in the mailbox. Opened it up and discovered a lovely little heart-attack-in-a-folded-paper-mailing-apparatus.....obviously insurance wasn't finished thoroughly screw us, so we now owe nearly $300 for it.....thank you for the anniversary gift, crappy useless insurance people, you made our anniversary night lovely.

No idea how we're going to pay it, the most they offer is a 3 month payout period, told them I can't even pay that out in 15 months, and probably longer depending on what happens this summer.

Some other non-trivial things occurred yesterday as well, which really helped us enjoy the evening.

You can come see the baby fox wait... should I over that to a shark?

 

I guess that would depend on how fast the fox can swim.

 

How's my day,you ask.
You don't want to know.

 

You can come see the fox too

 

Sad day in our household. We had to have our boy cat, Rowdy, euthanized. (Please forgive me for not using any of the standard acceptable euphemisms.) We had him for 9 years. He was diagnosed with cancer just three weeks ago. I'm not ashamed to say I cried like a baby.

 

I like bugs.... send em my way. Ants are awesome!!

 

You can have them.

 

So sorry about Rowdy. I know it's really hard.

 

God it's been a busy few weeks and we still have no idea when we are heading home. Hope everyone's doing well

 

Thanks.

 

My condolences.

 

Listening to some vintage Bob Dylan acoustic music, watching the curtains bellow and dance in the gentle spring breeze.

 

Thanks.

 

I have been there and done that many years ago. It is never easy to do. I am sorry about you loss.

 

Thanks.

 

Finished the first phase of pouring concrete for a parking pad and sidewalk. Banged up my finger with a sledgehammer in the process.

 

As long as you didn't harm that amazing facial hair you're good my friend.

 

It'll take more then a hammer to put a dent in the 'stache, but I was thinking about loosing the beard...
