    @nossmf Along the lines of your post, trying to sift through Medicare plans, making sense of crud they make much more difficult than it needs to be. BUT truly thankful for the people who help you through the process, simplifying it all so even *I* can understand it.

    Ugh, I hate high winds.

    But it's really the only time I get any resistance training. :)

    In an attempt to avoid uncomfortable discussions and the possibility of separating members, I feel any further discussion of this should be avoided. Reguardless of how one feels perhaps a more light hearted irk can be addressed.

    Irked that my clothes dryer heat just went out. It's still blowing air - just nothing warm.

    My favorite is when I go out of my way to rake/sweep them all up, only to have the lawn care people for our neighborhood blow them all BACK INTO MY PORCH AREA with their leaf blowers.

    Like, c'mon.. really? :|

    The dog-walker who put the neatly tied poop bag on top of my garbage when it was sitting at the curb waiting for collection. No, the garbage dudes won't throw it on the truck. No, it's not my problem to deal with now that it's sitting at the curb where my garbage used to be.

    Mixed irk/happy
    Long story.
    Irk: VA can’t see my husband for his (insert disturbing tale with blood where it shouldn’t be) for at least three more weeks.
    Happy: I figured this would be the case when we first had to go to the ER a couple weeks ago. So I got him an appointment with a local urologist for Tuesday.

    It will cost a significant copay.
    Don’t care. We’re getting the thing done asap. And that even made the VA urology person happy, considering the circumstances.

    I'm irked that my nose doesn't work like my dogs' noses. Obviously something had visited our backyard because my pups were very excited at 4:30 this a.m. Only smell that excited me at that time, was my coffee.
