I don't want to subject the family to my winter-scary feet in sandals.

It's time to shed the feral ways of winter.

I’m contacting a realtor today because while I’d hoped we’d have another year it’s clear we need to be out of my mother’s house as of June 1. Wish me luck because we are not fully financially prepared (house in Ohio is rented so we can’t sell it) and the housing market here is a disaster. (We’d rent, but there are literally 0 rental listings in this town that are not Airbnb. A 780 square foot house on a tiny lot on the edge of a marsh just went under contract in 4 days as a tear down for $870k. That kind of real estate market.)

Real estate~ma, flea.

Such busy folks! I hope all the medical stuff works out as well as possible.

I just found out that my CPA died. She was probably around 80, but didn’t look it. A lovely lady who I first met during my first “real” job back in the 90s. We were only professional acquaintances, but after 30+ years it’s still sad making. And I’m sure her family is missing her. My doctor of ~30 years retired (gotta get a new one) and I believe my dentist did, too. Whatever else is keeping me in NC, a long-term network of professionals is not it.

Real estate ~ma, flea. Easier said than done in so many places. Ugh.

Real estate ~ma for flea.

I approve of David's tomorrow to do list as well.

Today I see the new neurologist at 2:45 so if anyone can spare some "helpful medical professional who can help me and not make me feel frustrated" ~ma I would appreciate it.

I've been going over my timeline list and list of issues I want to discuss/point out. Its a long list but it's things I didn't get to talk about with the previous neurologist because she'd talk over me or just immediately say I'd need more tests as soon as I finished talking, sometimes before I finished.

Will probably go up to Mom's this weekend. Need to call her and Dad today or tomorrow. I need to also see about scheduling another Crafting Day with Crafty friend... I don't know if I can do it before we go to Florida since that is in 10 days!!!! YAY the beach!

Crap I have to finish the gift I'm making for my aunt.

In crafty mememe news, I tried using the Mod Podge image transfer solution to put an image on a t-shirt (an old one). Either I did something really wrong, the print-out was too old, or the stuff wasn't working right. The image doesn't seem to have transferred and the paper backing is still sticking to the shirt. I'll give it another try, but I'm very glad I used an old shirt with tears in it.

I hope the new neuro is helpful, askye.

Hi Todd! The only transfer stuff I have done is numbers on basketball jerseys, and I have done too much of that!

Still don't know if DH is coaching at this school, or that school, or not at all. He is the worst at making decisions. I make them quickly and easily, and he goes back and forth and suffers over them forever.

Good luck with the new neuro, askye!

Housing~ma, flea. That sounds pretty fraught.

I finally got some matza yesterday, after getting my glasses fixed (I think I forgot to report that I dropped my glasses while getting dressed yesterday morning and didn't realize until after I had stepped on them and broken an arm off - getting them fixed was surprisingly painless and speedy, though!). I don't know whether I just managed to miss the usual Passover displays (either because I did not walk through the right part of the store or because everything was already sold out) or there weren't any, but it was a challenge

Hmmm, on the coaching decisions, DH is considering two different schools. In each case, he feels another individual is a better fit. On one there was a candidate they didn't choose to interview, which was nuts, so he called the athletic director, as did another coach, and now he is being seen. At the other school, there is a woman JV coach applying, who was a huge local BB star herself and is really admired. He told the athletic director there that he thought she would be the best choice. So now he is hoping that both his favorite picks are selected then he can help them out, and help the kids, without the responsibility of being in the head position.

Well that was a fucking shit show from start to finish. I got berated NY the sr for being childish and expecting everyone to end over backwards because...I was upset and frustrated at how long it's taken Corvel to do things. And that I shouldn't expect a pill to solve everything. Which I never even said or hinted. At.

He kept talking about how totally incapacitated my life is and its not and I tried to say that. He went on thoss whole rant about if things are so bad I should just apply for disability .

And at another point i was saying how frustrating it's been working so little and he was like "well they are paying you aren't they? You get checks from them? With like ..vitriol in his voice.

I had to tell him 3 times I had been working.

I think he read the other patient's records and just kept thinking that was me.

I did get upset and had an anxiety attack but I couldn't say anything. I didn't feel like I could.

He was so hostile and I don't know what I did.
