I have calmed down about the cost of the AC repair...

Some things are just out of my control, and even though I am worried about our finances, I should be grateful that we have enough money to repair the AC in the car. Some people are not so lucky.

I finally sent a message to my PCP about the swollen lymph nodes above/behind my collar bones because the ones on the right side are larger now (much larger than the ones in my groin that he had ordered the u/s for). Today I got a message back from his RN saying that the surgeon I'm seeing on August 14th has my recent medical records and will evaluate me. I think it's a blow off, but I don't really care. My PCP has no clue what's wrong with me. I just hate to have to wait for so long for the consultation.

I think I would have to have something major going on before I would message my PCP again or ask for an appointment with the NP. I think that's pretty f-ed up.

I'm sorry I missed part of your post, Mari. I think it's hot where you live? So, I'm really sorry you don't have AC in your car either

Our water is absolutely filthy AGAIN! I got tipped off after I got out of the shower and found the bottom of our white tub covered in black sediment. I was just thrilled. I just happened to run into the rental agency manager when I got home, and asked her about it. I guess that it is because they are doing road work in a neighboring town, and we can expect these issues until NOVEMBER!!! It would have been nice if someone had told us that... the last message I got from the town water department said the issue had been resolved, and that was weeks ago.
I asked Corey to pick up a few gallons or a case of water on his way home. We both drink a lot of water, and I drink A LOT of coffee.

I have been napping every day. I needed a little help to settle down on Tuesday when I found out about the cost of the AC repairs tho.

Today I had PT, and overdid it a little. Then I had to go to the hospital to have blood drawn and submit a urine sample for my nephrologist appointment next week. I wrapped things up by stopping at CVS and playing the lottery up the street. So, I will probably take an early and long nap today.

I forgot to mention that my car is telling me to "change oil soon" now
I suppose I should get that taken care of when I have the AC fixed...
I don't know if I'm low on oil, or if the guys at Jiffy Lube just didn't do the reset the last time I had it done.

I am sure they just forgot to change the indicator, when did you get your oil changed last? You can drop by auto zone and they can run a diagnositics free on it if you are worried.


hope you have a good weekend!

I just told them to do the oil change when I dropped off my car. Fortunately, I found a $10 off coupon online. The flakey lady gave me a ride home, and Corey will give me a ride back over there to pick up the car when it's ready so we don't have to pay for more cab fare. It should be ready soon. I'm sure it will cost us well over a grand when you throw in the oil change and taxes...

I awoke from my nap yesterday to BLACK water in the toilet when I went to the BR, and sure enough, it was coming out of all the faucets, too.
I called our town water department to ask why we were never given any notice (for at least the second time). They said we were having problems because we are so close to the town line where the work was being done- and notifications were only being sent to residents in THAT town. She suggested we get on the notification list for said town too, but I tried to sign up for them, and I cannot do it because I don't reside there. I'm not done making phone calls...

We still have shitty blackish water, but not as thick or dark, and now our tub drain is clogged from trying to flush out the pipes, and we have very low water pressure in the facets in the sinks because the little screens in them are so clogged.

We ordered out last night because the water was not safe to use for anything- not even hand washing.

And I sucked it up and took a dirty shower this morning because I had to go to the neurologist... yucky

When did your illnesses start? How long ago.

And then how long ago did the water issues with the things go?

Is there any chance that the two are connected in any way.
