Today was… a blur. Being fully medicated improves everything, including the overwhelm. Imagine that! Maybe I take these things for a reason…. I’m in the in-between stage of getting COBRA set up, so I’m paying out of pocket for drugs this month. So far +/- $320 and another one to fill tomorrow. I am forever ASTOUNDED that they can charge $270 for a 30-day supply of a generic that doesn’t release the same as the brand name. So much gratitude for health insurance, though.
Many emails. Work. Millennium not a happy system. Work peeps all signed a card with mushrooms and fall leaves on the cover. Talked to Will for a while. Rebecca took me out for ice cream. I saw many pigeons. Terrell took me out for sushi. Saw Joe and Bruce at WSM when T and I went for chocolate raspberry cake.
Got home and my door was almost blocked with boxes. I did well at timing my recent purchases to all arrive as birthday gifts. I received:
- My order from Mountain Rose Herbals, including soapnuts. (I made liquid soap extract, or soapnut tea) Also included fir essential oil on sale so my laundry can smell like Yule trees.
- My spiral slicer and kelp noodles
- My WonderWash and spin dryer
I can’t believe how much water that dryer extracts from my clothes. Yes, on my birthday I very excitedly did laundry with my new toys.
And now, no more buying stuff for a while!
