We have an intern, we have 3 (one is for the front office)other management assistants. 2 have the first Friday of the pay period off (today), 1 assistant is not allowed to cover the front office, and the intern is off today. Guess where I will be sitting-in the front office. Add to oversleeping, no breakfast yet, and I am not in the best moods. Oh well, I will get over it. SO will pick up lunch for me and I will eat at the desk. I can get someone to cover for short periods of time but considering she is GS13 and the desk position is GS7/8, it really isn't her responsibility. I do need to do something nice for her.

It was a quiet night last night. I am starting to feel better, I told my husband no more chinese/asian food for awhile. Need to give stomach a rest, thought last night at about 9, I was starving. I ended up eating string cheese and finally gave up and made myself a peanut butter and jam sandwich. Stomach was still growling. I have plenty of extra on me that actual starvation is a long way away, but that was something unusual. Supper had been a beef and barley stoup (real thick soup) and I had felt full then.

I am going to have to get stuff together for the other desk coverage. I really don't mind sitting there, but it seems that it is a lot of coverage. Such is the life.

SO has been looking at buy new vehicle. Since he is in a motorized wheelchair, it doesn't make sense to me. However when we travel to IL, the chair stays here. It doesn't fit into the van we have. The old one fit and we had a lift put in the van. The new chair is higher in the back. ACK-I am still paying on the loan we took to get the first chair and lift.

SO went to doctor Tuesday-foot doctor. doctor saw leg, said SO has severe lymphodema, needs wrapping treatment and is in danger of losing limb. We have done the wrapping treatment and it is not covered by my HMO. I can wrap so much, but treatment has to be monitored. Each office visit over $100-go weekly, and buy wraps. And people wonder why so many defer medical treatments. We owe the office over 2k and the treatments really didn't help. I will be calling HMO next week. I am the primary holder. Long story-only one working, small kids and once you are the primary only leaving employment will allow other spouse to pick up insurance. yuck. I HAVE BEEN TELLING SO TO CALL PRIMARY CARE BUT HE HAS IGNORED ME OR SAID DOCTOR NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING. I think that is passive aggressive coming out.

Have plans tomorrow with a friend. I will be doing laundry tonight so I can get some cleaning done tomorrow morning. Then meeting her at 2, don't know what we will be doing, but like to keep in touch with her. I met her in the hallway of my apartment building when she was moving in. She is older, never married, no kids and no job. So she is actual opposite of me. We do talk a bit, but a lot of her time is being quiet. We'll see what happens. I do want to go to church Sunday but I don't want to deal with the pouting that may happen. Well, that is about it for now. I want to read a little before I have to start work.
