Damage Control

Sorry I've been quiet so long. I'm glad it's Friday. Work is pretty stressful right now. We have a lot of staff changeovers and insurance companies are paying less and less and it seems like patients are getting more demanding and insurance rules.

I'm sorry to hear about your brother. I hope he accepts your help and gets back on his feet. I will definitely keep you all in my thoughts. We don't have any plans for Easter. I took my mom some soup last week and visited and have heard nothing. So I don't know what's up with that whole situation. I thought we'd sort of reconciled, but now I'm not sure.

I go round and round with my stomach. This has not been the best week. Too much water has been making me nauseas now. I have to be so careful. At least so far this morning it's ok.

Do you think 7:30 AM pick up is too late on the day we leave Sedona? I don't want you to miss your plane and I've been hearing about long TSA lines. Do you want me to change it to 6:30?

Off to work. It's the Friday before Easter and there's a ton of people off so I'm all over the place today.

6:30 would probably be better, just in case. Better to be early than late!

I'm feeling it on the insurance paying less. Even though we have a HDHP, it seems my insurance isn't covering much. We usually get a discount of sorts. Thankfully we don't need to go to the Dr. too frequently.

Yesterday I did the last disc of Meso 2. I'll start on Meso 3 probably on Sunday. We don't have any plans either. Things are kinda up in the air with my MIL being in the hospital. Still waiting to hear what they are going to do for her bowel blockage. SIL just texting letting me know MIL is in Afib now. This is just too much for her.

Today I did a workout from the other platform. It was legs, but not as heavy as it had been. Step ups for cardio in between each set. I did my own abs and then went for a walk. It is beautiful here today.

Off to clean up my office and review the bills.

I got the time changed to 6:30. I'm starting to pack in my head and am ready for warm weather! It's 20 degrees here right now with the high of 40 today. I'm obviously not walking to work today.

We went and saw the surgeon yesterday. She does not see a need to operate. So DH has to manage his symptoms-which means facing up to not being able to walk more than 15-20 minutes without his leg hurting and having a limp the rest of his life. I think it's more about the loss of mobility that's bothering him (aging sucks). So, he's chalking it up to arthritis and needs to come to terms with it. We'll see!

Otherwise, just enjoying being off and doing weights and my fascia stretching the last few days. I think my mom is ghosting me. I took her soup two Sundays ago and then called and left a message this past Monday morning-no response. Whatever. DH thinks she'll call when she needs something. I don't know.

How is your MIL? Did your brother find a place?
