Quick Check-In

By Suburban Wife | Published: October 4, 2009
Yes, I’m still here. I’ve been busy and not feel­ing very well. Thy­roid stuff, I guess. And the Fibro’s been flaring. The Daughter’s an emo­tional wreck — a com­bi­na­tion of hor­monal issues (recently started on thy­roid meds for hypothy­roidism and birth con­trol pills for severe PMS issues) and the stresses of being a [...]

No Spend Day

By Suburban Wife | Published: August 23, 2009
Yes­ter­day was a no-spend day.  Whoop!  Not so much because I didn’t spend any money but because I didn’t have to go out and buy any­thing, if that makes sense. The past few days have been a long, blurry, sleep-deprived marathon of car­ing for sick kids and run­ning errands to buy sup­plies related to their sick­ness.  Yes­ter­day [...]

$$: Dec 10 — Medical Expense

By Suburban Wife | Published: December 11, 2008
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 fact [...]
