Granny's gone and done it again

A big Amen to this. I'm terrified at what a pair of new hips and at least on new shoulder will cost.
Have good insurance. DH just had a procedure done in Columbia. We got the EOB from the VA. So far it's somewhere around 140,000.00 dollars. The VA paid them 20,000.00. Thank God we don't have to pay anything. Haven't seen the bill for the doctors yet. We figure it's going to be somewhere around 250,000.00 when all is said and done but he got great care.
 
Bee, the goat had her triplets! One stillborn, one very wet and chilly, but still alive. One standing up. I took the wet girl, dried her off, laid her under a heat lamp for a while. Last time I checked her, she was standing up. The people are coming to pick them up tonight. Along with Pippin and Peanut. Then I will have 2 does and 4 kids left.
Yay, the people came and got the goats. I had Pippin caught in the goat house, so no problem catching him!
 
Problem with my GI is that it takes months to get in to see her. I can get into my DO in 48 hours usually.

I'm doing the high dose Prilosec. Danged Medicare part D keeps telling me that I need to take it just once a day and I keep telling them, Look, you aren't my doctor and you don't have my stomach so butt out. When I'm having a lot of problems with Gerd I even take Famotidine at bedtime. What frustrates me is that I have this inflammatory condition in my stomach and colon but nobody seems to know what is causing it. They know what it isn't, it isn't Crohn's disease or Ulcerative Colitis, I don't have ulcers, I do have a Hiatal hernia and GERD but here, take these pills and watch what you eat.

Sigh. Sometimes you just get so tired......
I hate it when I have to diagnose myself. My GI couldn't figure out IBS, I guess they didn't know about it way back then? Had to figure it out myself. Took years.
 
I’m still here (I got dinner here lol and now shopping a tiny bit lol) but I WALKED PAST THE BAD AISLES. ACTUALLY, I walked THROUGH and stared at the bad stuff a while, picked it up, etc. BUT I then put it down and WALKED AWAY.
Awesome. I went grocery shopping without buying chocolate or any other candy!
 
Bouncing one the seat of that John Deere mower is very hard on my hip going over this hard ground. I don't realize how bad it is until I go to get off and try to walk.
Sit on a pillow when you mow!
