I'm pretty sure I can't afford the neurostimulator. It's still being remarkably difficult to find the cost of the procedure, but 20% is a pretty big percentage, and there are two procedures and we're definitely looking at five figures.

Well, at least I know.

Husband has a start date in Houston. Amen.

Yay Nillybaby!

Yay Houston!

Boo healthcare. How's it going with the home nurse?

My coworker just gave a multimedia debrief on her vacation. Heh.

Baby is adorable. Unsurprisingly.

YAY Houston!! Can you share the date yet?

I have reached the hurry up and wait portion of my work day. I sent out a bunch of questions and NO ONE is answering me. Come on people!!!

Yay, Dana!

ita, is that five figures out of your pocket or total? Not that it makes a big difference, I know.

NillyBaby! With the tiny fist! Oh, my ovaries.

Yay Houston! Boo costly medical.

Got preliminary word on new project...they're still trying to find someone in the Midwest, so at the moment I have sites in Wichita, Ames, Jefferson City, Sioux city, and Green Bay. And north dakota. Srsly? Hoping they find that Midwest person after not too long. Or that I could take a huge Midwest road trip. That would be kinda cool. A bit jealous of the person who has all of Canada (but is in the states!). And someone else has anchorage, which I might fight for later...but in good news, Portland and Spokane and ....Vallejo?

I think what ita is saying is even with 80% of the costs paid, 20% of 5 figures is a lot of $$. I agree with this.

Congratulations Dana. So, are you packing the house? I am still not unpacked over here (home or office) so I'm dreading those steps on your behalf.

Oh no! Michelle Williams and Jason Segal broke up.

Dana, good news! I am sure you will appreciate the weather in Houston better than in eastern WA.

I have sort of caught up with my weekly reports, but that was unpleasant. Also kind of horrifying to see how repetitive the entries are: a lot of them are "Project X coordination with Y".

And now the realtor I've been working with on selling my folks' condo is falling apart because her father is in hospice and she can't keep up. I am still being required to re-sign paperwork I already signed, and the contractor just discovered a whole mess of rot & mold in a storage unit we will have to fix up before we close on Monday. JOY.
