icedtea , I hope you have an awesome and relaxing few days. Have you recovered from your various ailments?
Thank you! I'm getting there. I finish up the antibiotics today/tomorrow, and I've been taking the stuff for the ulcer. I'm mostly just happy to have answers for why I've felt so shitty. Tomorrow is a new day
PirateCat, is there a legit site one can look that up on? Googling now.
I need to do this. Yay free stuff!
I am SUPER peeved at adulting today. We are trying to buy life insurance. I have a decently strong family history of cancer, and my doc said I should start screening at 30. (Trigger) Last time I went in for a checkup in July I was pregnant, so we put it off, it was no big deal.
Now insurance company won't write me a policy because I haven't had the "recommended screening." We are in TWW I think now, so I have to either wait til next cycle and try to squeeze it in before O, or put off TTC for a month. Otherwise, I will have to wait to get insurance until we're not TTC anymore, including redo of all the medical exams. Super frustrating when you're honest with your doc about this crap and it bites you.
Of course DH's was fine because he never freaking goes to the doctor.
Terribly. After many days of trying to make decisions, I was finally ready to order and the dining set for the deck is now out of stock and I have to wait until October. Also, the pricing on that site fluctuates so much on a daily basis, it's super annoying. So basically, I have no furniture.
I need a redo for today. Or at least I need the day to get better. We were running a little late already this morning and then H spilled our baby foster son's pink liquid antibiotics all over the fridge and kitchen floor. Then on the way to daycare, our older foster son spilled his juice box all over his shirt. Plus I didn't get enough sleep last night and woke up to bad cramps and spotting.
But I'm trying to focus on the good things. We're going out to lunch today for my coworker's birthday, and then it's the long weekend!

Argh.
Oh hm, life insurance. I need to do this for H. It's the opposite for us - I have a modest policy through my work but H couldn't get one without paying an arm and a leg due to his medical issues. I think we've waited the requisite amount of time by now and he should be able to get something for a reasonable amount.
Last time H tried to set it up, they sent a "doctor" to the house, which I thought was weird. Is that standard?

We x-h and I signed up for private life insurance we had a nurse or PA come to the house and draw blood and whatnot. I thought it was weird but then looked in to it and noticed it was common practice.

+1 when my H got his life insurance. I have it through work but we had a nurse come to our house when H got his set up privately a few years ago.
I realllllllly hope I get off work early today. We always have in the past but we have a new boss this year. Come on!!!!
At my old job, my boss would annoyingly only let us know about 15 min before 3 that the office was going to close at 3. He did it before just about every long weekend...but not EVERY long weekend, so you couldn't count on it. I mean, I was happy for the early closing, but it was so annoying to wait until the last minute. One year he let us go early...at 4pm...before Memorial Day. Again, thanks for the hour...but...really? And...he wasn't in the office that day.

I'm awful at picking clothes for pictures so please let me know if I should keep it or keep looking. I would wear it with dark wash skinny jeans.
eta: Last year I thought my shirt looked great but then I hated it in the actual pictures. It def made me look bigger and I'm trying to avoid that this year lol...

I work for the government and they don't close early for anything. Thankfully, our office isn't a typical taxpayer random drop-in office so it usually isn't a big deal. If we do get to leave early, its only (at most) an hour.

Yep, a medical exam is standard. They run standard bloodwork panels, take a history, and pull all your medical records. That was extra fun, going through my entire reproductive history with some random dude.
My medical exam is only good for six months so really hoping we can figure all this out and I don't have to do it again.
So I will have a different car but haven't been able to get in to sign the papers at the bank with our schedules so I don't think I can get it until next week. So we have to take the truck up to my parents for my class reunion this weekend....boo. It would be so much better to be able to take a different vehicle for the better gas mileage and more room than a truck this weekend.
But we at least will have a second vehicle soon (even though I had to give us some features I'm going to greatly miss....like heated seats, fold down seats, a car vs. a SUV, etc). It does have remote start like what I had. But there weren't many vehicles available in my area that fit the budget we have to go with currently unfortunately.
And come to find out why he didn't want to refinance the original car is because of an open court case with my ex-boss that is B.S. that is still 'open' until December but I have met all the conditions of. So he was worried that a huge amount was going to be coming due on that when it wasn't....sigh.

butlerfan ugh that whole car thing is a major PITA. I am glad you are getting something else, even if it's not perfect (or getting done fast enough), but it is a whole bunch of annoyance!

Ugh...H and I need a redo of yesterday-it sucked at work for both of us. Mine was just crazy busy and had a bunch of crap dumped on me that I normally don't do and didn't get lunch so that helps the crabbiness for sure.
H was with a parent who claimed child was missing from daycare. H was the only one left at the day care (all kids gone, was about to leave and close up when this happened). Cue freak outs, police called, his bosses called, his co-worker coming back, etc.
Come to find out parents had taken the kid themselves to school, didn't communicate with the daycare that they needed to pick her up from school and bring her back. Kid had followed friends after school to the Boys and Girls club. The Boys and Girls club didn't know she wasn't supposed to be there.
Kid was fine and found and safe but still had to get everything sorted out as to what had happened.
