Cliff teetering?


We did/didn’t fall over the fiscal cliff per se? Although, all hardworking people will see their paychecks decrease by 2% in their weekly incomes… its times like these that make me happy that I am a bum. No paycheck no decrease, radical thinking, but true. The guys who work for us, led by ‘Boehner the Heartless’ tabled their decision to help the victims of Hurricane Sandy with the financial aid that is so very long overdue! It has been too many months with no monies distributed what-so-ever! The longest in history of this type of disasters, Katrina’s wait was only two weeks in spite of everything that went down. The only way to explain this person’s reasoning is that he has no one in the area where the storm destroyed all those lives so he cannot relate! Perhaps, that he is just what us ladies call a, ‘REAL A—HOLE’, or maybe just me. And I really hate to think that anyone in our government could be that ignorant or non-compassionate, especially a cry-baby, like BOEHNER, who seemed to fool us all! It doesn’t make any sense to me or to you either I suspect. Is this the way the influence of the bullies works? If you don’t do what I want and make me look stupid, actually he made himself look stupid with his stubbornness down to the wire on the cliff vote… any-who, he wasn’t taught how to play nice…apparently! Mr. Boehner, in my opinion, you are acting like any spoiled brat who hasn’t gotten his way…causing yourself to only look worse with that nasty attitude and SHAME ON YOU! Well, one good thing is the market seems to have taken the news well that the dive over the cliff is not so steep, after all. And I am more than sure they are the ones who will find their incomes being taxed more with paychecks of over 400K for singles and 450K for married… big of them, huh? And that five million thingy; I suppose I stopped listening or reading, it seems none of that affects me or Hubby or anyone we know…unless they are keeping that sort of thing close to their vest/chest? I always get that one confused, but as we all know it doesn’t take much. Moving on… Set up all the medication baloney today for my Nexium and got prices on the rest and after all was said and done not too bad after all. Most three month supplies were better than I originally thought. And my Copaxone that I was so worried about I was hooked up with a few agencies that work with you even with insurances, since the first quote I got was $850 for three months, but then a bit better when my $500 deductible was met with only $300 for three months… I said WHOA and than they said call these numbers and one was lo and behold the one that I am with right now ‘Shared Solutions’ and they said that they will get back to me by Friday with possible good news. I won’t be out of my Copaxone until March I think; planning ahead. Put in a call to my orthopedic hand surgeon to see if the basilar thumb surgery has been improved upon in the eleven years since I had it. It is not to say that it didn’t work, it worked fine on my left one, but the recuperative time takes very long, as long as much six months and this time it is my right one and I am right handed. And in order to use my scooter the button is on that side, thus one of the many reasons I have been pushed around by Hubby in my wheelchair when out. This doctor is Johns Hopkins trained and the surgery is called an arthroscopy, same name as other larger joint replacements. This is his site: http://www.floridahandcenter.com/ On the site you can actually go to a video showing how the surgery is done, quite fascinating. I think I saw it before many years ago, Gosh its been over eleven years ago that I had my left one done and then he wanted to do this right one, I should have, but I was chicken with two hands in casts for all that time! Anyway, it does show the same method is used as I had and it has been the tried and true method for over forty years. I have a bit of thinking to do about that one too; my left eye needs laser and now this? Next my shoulders? They again have been keeping me awake at night with my thumb et al… SORRY! And I was doing pretty well, hmm? Although, I did post this for all to see: http://shine.yahoo.com/healthy-living/mad-live-2-years-longer-193500114.html MY VALIDATION! On that note that brought me back to a tiny happy note, allow me to be the first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you to kindly to count all your blessings and share all your overages with the Sandys and whomever you believe to need them and we will too! And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?!
