$$: Dec 15 - Physical Therapy, etc.
Total Spent Today: $91.85
Physical Therapy — $25.00
This was, for now, The Son’s last physical therapy session. His range of motion is excellent though not quite 100%. His strength needs more work but he’s going to have to work on that on his own. If The Son should run into range of motion issues at some point — ie [...]

Finally almost caught up with my Daily $$ posts!
Doctor co-pay — $50.00
Finally, my appointment to see my Endocrinologist.
This is my first post-thyroidectomy appointment with him. After enumerating my long list of hypothyroid symptoms the guy actually had the nerve to ask why I hadn’t called him and requested an earlier appointment in light of the [...]

Chiropractor — $35.00
Remember when The Son broke his clavicle in early September? Well, his body’s been a mess ever since — as you might well imagine. After all, he didn’t just fall and snap his collarbone. No, he tripped and tumbled and took off large patches of skin on his hip and back and bruised [...]

If you’re just joining me in this series, be sure to also read Blessing #1 and Blessing #2.
Today’s ode is to my health.

$$: Coyote Sighting Edition
Total Spent Today: $1,954.94
A coyote crossed the road in front of me this morning as it traveled from one section of greenbelt to another. I can’t remember ever being that close to a coyote before and seeing it there, in the middle of an upscale suburban development, was a glorious testament to the will and drive to survive [...]
