Long time no post…well, I gave my much loved e-mac to my eldest son a couple of weeks ago. So I am sharing Rich’s PC. He has one of those keyboards that are supposed to be more comfortable to type with and all I do is make mistakes with it! My reasoning for letting go of my computer was that:
- I was spending way too much time on it and wanted to break the habit.
- My son’s computer was an old out dated 1998 laptop that was second hand to begin with.
- I was ready to start thinking about getting a new laptop and would get one sooner if I didn’t have a computer already.
- Rich and I could just share computers anyway. And not take up extra space with my computer.
- I love being generous and giving when I know how much the other person will appriceate the item given. (Totallly selfish on my part huh?)
So now since I don’t typing on the keyboard…I may not be posting as often…but I will try.
Last Thursday I fell and injured my knee cap pretty badly. For 3 days I could barley walk on it…it is now brused up and the knee cap is all jello like. I did go see a DR. after it happened because I feared I broke my knee somewhere. They told me before I even saw the Dr. that just for the visit I would be charged $140.00 and if I needed x-rays it would be a few hundred dollars more. Well, after waiting for almost 2 hours before I even got in to see the Dr. I decided that I just couldn’t afford the x-rays….the Dr. said she didn’t think that it was broken but couldn’t tell for sure without x-rays. I told her I didn’t have insurance and really couldn’t afford the x-rays anyways…so she said to see how it feels in one week…Well, it has been about one week and I am almost sure that the knee cap was broken…it feels sharp and like jello. But what the hell can I do? I am one of the working poor…yes, and one of the 50 million American citizens without health insurance.
I have had jobs that offered health insurance and so in the past I have been covered. But what are your options when you have no health insurance except to run up your Visa charge card with medical bills….
Spell check is not working…arrrggg!!!
