Timelies all!
Health~ma, Epic, and I'm sorry the process is being so frustrating.
In other news, we have a working furnace again! (Of course, the highs for the next few days are in the 70s. Oh, well)
Jeez, don't get all Movie of the Week. I was just too cheap to buy you a real present.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Still, a working furnace is better.
I ordered a dozen of what I thought were kinda over-priced but mini GF bundt cakes -- sj's cupcakes got me thinking about them -- but it turns out they were not so mini. More like the equivalent of a mongo slice of cake. Each. A dozen. There are two of us here.
Guess what the freezer is full of now? Bundt cakelettes into the foreseeable future!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's a happy freezer.
JFC, Epic. What a mess.

Relatedly, I laid a fire in my fireplace the other week when I was having people over, but never lit it. Then I went out of town, and now it's warm! So it may just sit there until fall?

March is only half over! Surely you'll get some regrettable snow storm before April.

The patient portal is called "Follow My Health" and they all refer to it as FMH for short. I'm not sure how much is their fault and how much is you guys' influence that it's become "Fuck My Health" in my head this morning.
The situation's awful and scary, but this did make me snicker. (I'd totally also read it as Fuck My Health.)

Our wings are not tired.
FMH, indeed. To be more specific, F our healthcare system. I'm sorry there has to be so much frustration on top of the stress.
Progressing, slowly, with moving by next Tuesday. Have secured temporary shelter for the cats for the period between being out of here and establishing the floating household. The same woman who I got the cats with to begin with said she could take them for a week or so. Now for the book. Ugh. Why so many books. I have multiple keep bins although I always read from my Nook. But books! My large dining room table is covered with tall stacks of books for SIL's kids, and review by DH, and many stacks that need to go elsewhere. Donating books seems more problematic than it should be. Sigh.
Another full day of packing awaits me.

Health~ma and health system~ma, Epic. FMH seems like quite the ClusterF.

Can you just bring them to the library or Goodwill? (I know my local library only accepts books at certain times.) This must be a huge downsizing!

Maybe, but we are having a warm March -- it's going to be in the 70s today! And of course, like Prince said, sometimes it snows in April.
