Well, they fed her up on antibiotics, stuck needles in to drain her twice, and got tired of listening to her and shipped her back. So far she is able to be up moving about 30min a day, which just about covers restroom trips. Glad I learned to cook and do laundry as a kid. I went to pharmacy and picked up a months supply of meds and they counted 14 scripts to ensure they got them all. I'm really glad they don't count things like medicine, doctor bills, and hamburger when they are trying to figure inflation rates for pensions and social security, or I could get a real raise. The cost of gasoline dropped a few pennies cause of fed tax freeze to get the prices down just in time for the new figures to be included and lower the amount the COLA, so we get a smaller raise. Wonder how mu ch that cost to bribe big oil to drop the prices, lower the adjustment, sand then raise prices back up. Or is that my bad attitude zagain?. Oops got a rent increase coming again. Well, she's home, we're broke and all the kids keep asking for money. We buried a sister-in-law about a month ago. One of my nieces I raised told us they found a tumor on her thyroid last week. We're alive so I can honestly say, "you have a better day".
