Rainy days and Mondays

          If you can't tell by the title of this entry you can get a huge
      hit about the weather from this background!  Actually it isn't
      raining at the moment but it rained all morning and is supposed
      to keep raining through tomorrow sometime.  I prefer summer
      rains to fall/winter rains.

      I've been updating over at my catalog place.  Doesn't seem like
      I have received as many catalogs this year as I did by this time
      time last year.  And of course I deleted all of last years when I
      started in on this years.  Oh, if you have no idea what I am
      talking about, I started keeping a list of all the catalogs I get
      in the mail from about Halloween until Christmas.  You should go
      check them out.  Some are really great.

       When I went to the ER a few weeks ago I had to pay a co-pay
        of $50.  Thank goodness that I just had that "small" co-pay! 
       Today I got a copy of the entire bill.  Total $4,010.35!  Can you
        believe?  Well it is probably cheaper than it would have been
        if they had admitted me.  In case your courious here is the
        breakdown:   Pharmacy ................................525.35
                            Laboratory..............................951.00
                            Radiology..............................1,640.00
                            Respiratory Therapy..............58.00
                            Emergency Room.....................716.00
                            EKG............................................120.00
                            TOTAL.................................$4,010.35

         This background is supposed to be animated but it keeps
         "stopping" as I write this.  Hope it works right after I hit
         save.

         I was flipping channels the other day and stopped on VH1.  If
         you don't have it it is a music channel that is supposed to (I
         think) for those of us that are not of the age that watches
        MTV.  Anyway.......They had this show on called: 
         50 Most Awesomely Bad Songs.....Ever.  Image to my surprise
        there were songs on the list that I liked!  I didn't think they
        were bad when the came out.  And some of the love songs I
        really didn't give a second thought to, now they are saying 
        if you listen to the words they sound more like a stalker than
        love.  Creepy!  Go check out the list.  See how many you really
        liked that made the "awesomely bad" list!  LOL

        I am sitting here with Sophie asleep on my desk and Sadie 
        dozing at my feet.  They know what rainy days are all about!

        Hang in there.  I am slowly but surely making journal rounds.
