Rockefeller wants to eliminate HSAs

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

My husband just passed me some information from his employer’s HSA department saying that Senator Jay Rockefeller from West Virginia is trying to pass an amendment to the Senate Finance Committee calling for the elimination of Health Savings Accounts. We’ve had issues with our HSA from time to time but without it we would not [...]

Not a Girly Girl

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

I’ve been finding some issues with not only clothing but shoes lately. It’s hard for me to find shoes that I like and will wear. I realize this is because I’m really not into womens shoes.
It’s actually an irony that Max, my one remaining male alter is actually more likely to buy cute shoes. The [...]

ECT Trip, part 2

Monday, September 28th, 2009

I was speaking earlier about our trip to East Coast Thing at the end of August. Here’s the second part of our “epic tale”. We had so much fun on our trip. I had been apprehensive about being in cabins without so many amenities, but it was a lot of fun and despite the fact [...]

Cleaning the Pantry

Saturday, September 26th, 2009

For several months now there’s been some kind of unexplainable guck on the floor of our pantry, but I haven’t had the capacity to tackle it. Today I decided since I was looking for something to do I would attack it, and rearrange and tidy up the pantry while I was at it.
The pantry has [...]

Cervical Kyphosis

Saturday, September 26th, 2009

I had my evaluation meeting with the chiropractor yesterday morning. I was both nervous and hopeful as to what he would have found and pleasantly surprised that the office runs so smoothly. I was almost immediately taken in for electrode treatment and after that was done the lady took me to the doctor’s office and [...]

Weight

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

As always this is a concern of mine. I mentioned it to the chiropractor yesterday. At the gas station I see tons of things advertising themselves as the best diet pills and I wonder if they’re really what they claim to be. I’ve never taken any of them though.
I realize that I shouldn’t just pop [...]

ECT Trip, part 1

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

I’m finally getting to write properly about our ECT trip in August. We went to ECT for my brother and sister-in-law’s wedding. We left the last Wednesday in August at the “glorious hour” of 3:30 in the morning, to go to the Orlando International Airport and fly to Tennessee for a connecting flight to Newark [...]

He's Growing Up

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

My Mum volunteered to look after the munchkin today while I went to the chiropractor.
I called when we were on the way back, but she said she was going to take him out to lunch so she would be back later. About an hour ago she called to say that she’d promised him that if [...]

Chiropractor

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

Today is my first ever trip to a chiropractor. The idea is to get some x-rays done and see if there’s anything they can do to help relieve some of the fibromyalgia symptoms. Apparently they have some sort of electrode machine which has helped several other fibro patients quite a bit. I’m a bit nervous. [...]

It's Been a Week

Sunday, September 20th, 2009

I think, or rather I know that I’d rather being doing GMAT prep than going through what just happened this past week.
We got the computer back and I was settled down to catch up on my work, but my brain didn’t want to function. I worked Monday, and slept most of Tuesday, worked Wednesday but [...]
