FREAKING out!

first of all, hubby's got edema (extreme swelling) in both ankles and while his doctors don't think it's cardiac related, he's still got to have chest (and feet/ankle & hand/wrist) xrays, a neuclear stress test and an echo cardiogram to be sure.

sat 5/5 is his last day with agent orange (aka the company from HELL) and the benefits rep just told him today that our health coverage will end SUNDAY! and he won't get the cobra paperwork until he's officially out of agent oranges computer system which takes 2 to 3 weeks!

excuse me?! there is such a thing as "the right to continuation of coverage for 30 days after voluntarily or in voluntarily leaving employment." NOT ACCORDING TO AGENT ORANGE!

so, i've set him up for ALL his xrays and tests for this week and he's calling united healthcare directly as soon as he gets home.

not to mention that i'm trying to get together a surprise party for him when he gets home on saturday to celebrate his new job and it's turning into a much bigger shin-dig than i had anticipated! so far nearly everyone i've told about it is coming and i'm up to about 50 people! yeesh!

and it's my mother's birthday on friday!!!


i've been so worried about hubby (who refuses to rest damn it!) that i've been breaking out in hives and now thanks to my brilliant idea of having this party, i am completely STRESSED OUT!

2nd Annual Practical Magic Blog Party 2011 is Here! *Updated*

It's time for the 2nd Annual Practical Magic Blog Party created & hosted by the wonderful Anna of Frosted Petunias ! My sincerest apologies for getting this up rather late! The adventure that is post Hurricane Irene cleanup & repairs has been taking up too much time recently. (sigh) Things are a mess; I only started decorating for Autumn yesterday and I'm missing Halloween decorations! Luckily my broom is always safe and sound by the front door so at least I don't have to wonder where it is. (Not that it hasn't been known to scamper off now and again - naughty broom). I was afraid, quite honestly, that I wouldn't even get a post up sometime today! I kept hitting dead ends with every other one I tried. But, this morning I sat here at the computer and it flowed. Thankfully! I would have been so disappointed if I'd missed this, it was such fun last year! As some may remember from last years party, while I like the movie, (and love that house!), I love the...

The Time Is Upon Us Once Again!

Welcome Friends! It's time once again for A Fanciful Twist Halloween Party ! Warmest thanks to the lovely Vanessa for hosting again this year. My apologies for not having this up sooner, I've been dreadfully under the weather and my helpers have been more of a hindrance! My lovely kitchen witch Helvetica has given up time off and has been cooking & baking away since last night but the skeletons have been eating everything in sight (damn their bottomless stomachs!) though they won't fess up and the invisible man has been raving on and on every time the door bell rings! I do hope you'll enjoy your visit to Pumpkin Manor and have a Happy Halloween ! I look forward to your return.

11:14pm (3/16/09) Watching a documentary Tennessee is so beautiful Head & nose all stuffy Out of ZyrtekD - sigh Want to read but distracted by my clogged head Hubby's snoring a little, restless a lot I worry about him He's so tired, works so much Doesn't get to do what he enjoys often enough (If at all) He willingly took my burdens & made them his own I'm still not used to being taken care of Makes me uncomfortable, guilty I took care of things for so many years Are 2 persons "stuff" too much for 1 person? Even a good, strong man? I know what it is to do more than my "fair share" Though the situation was completely different Is the end result the same?
