Badger Posted November 20, 2018 Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 I finally got out of my cold this weekened. Felt pretty good since I choked/coughed for 5 minutes Saturday night, and coughed up a gooey lump that had the consistency of cream of chicken just out of the can. It may be a while before I eat cream of chicken because of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That happened to me once. (Actually it wasn't really twice; it was just way too early, since the bank's online payment scheduling system upgraded, and their calendar no longer scheduled payments in the future, despite me clicking on a date like like the 1st of next month, and reverted to the next business day.) The good news is that I called the mortgage company, and the refunded the payment for me, and even paid the extra fee to have the funds immediately available, which was very kind of them.

tkdguy Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 You're walking to work, and no less than three a-holes in cars cut you off, even though you clearly had right of way. Small wonder I started cussing and yelling in the street. Then you bang your knee, which was already giving you problems, in the most sensitive spot. Small wonder I started cussing and yelling in the office. Christopher 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pariah Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 Baz, are you friends with Lord Mhoram on the Book of Face? He received a similar diagnosis about five years ago, and he has been able to do a lot with it since then. You may want to talk with him.

How bout when your doctor...not his office, but the doc himself...calls you at 4:30 pm and says "go get these prescriptions filled NOW" after having taken your blood (to check A1c, aka blood sugars) that morning. To offer some encouragement, Bazza...got my blood sugars down from 300ish, when I got this call, to solidly 110ish after dinner, in about 3 months. Lost 40-50 pounds over 6 months.

mattingly Posted November 24, 2018 Report Share Posted November 24, 2018 My son's apartment was robbed a month ago. My wife found a Black Friday deal on PS 4 Pro, to replace his. She got scammed. So she found another one, and ordered it while it was still available. Yep. Twice. The good news is that we're getting both the transactions refunded to us. Whew!

Badger Posted November 29, 2018 Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 When your department at work gets phased out on December 14, and they haven't told the 4 people left what happens to them. Note: Not too worried, 90% sure, we get transferred to various other departments. We weren't part of the meeting, of the ones being let go (most of them retirees, working part-time). But, my paranoia has reached full power, regardless. Regardless, my working 2nd shift will be over. I hate working 1st shift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
