I audibly exhaled when I read your update, Pix.
I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

I am now getting emails inviting me to "WTFNB" events, which I am unable to see as anything other than What The Fuck, Non-Binary.I just read this and audibly snorted. That's AMAZING.
BOO ANTS.
I've agreed to let them shoot my hip with cortisone on Thursday morning. I am such a freak when it comes to shots that I am seriously anxious, but the other attempts at painkillers just don't work and give me side effects. PT is going well, but it would be a real bonus if the hip didn't hurt all the time.
I got a cortisone shot in my hip, and it wasn't that painful at all, and it really helped. Hoping you have a similar outcome!

Whew, Pix, what a relief!
meara, I'm weirdly relieved it's not just us with an ant problem all of a sudden. (Wait...are the ants taking over Seattle?)

That’s good, Pix. I’m glad you’ll be able to get that resolved.
Boo ants indeed.
I hope the shot helps, Laura. My sister got one in her knee, and she’s been able to put off surgery for over a year. They can be pretty miraculous.

As anxious as I am about getting the shot, I can't take painkillers and the notion of taking them indefinitely didn't sound like a great plan either.
Boo Ants, indeed.

So relieved to hear , Pix!
We get those little tiny ants every year. Sometimes upstairs, sometimes down. Always gross.

Yeah, the ants usually start showing up when things get warmer. I haven't seen them yet this year, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time. They really really don't like mint so one of the things I usually do is make up a cleaning solution with some mint and vinegar and spray the areas they're likely to come in.
Yay, Pix! I'm glad that he figured it out, and I hope his moving out has gone smoothly.
I've been trying to get up earlier so that I'm less stressed at drop off time. I've been up earlier two days in a row and I'm still stressed and bickering with ltc at drop off time.
