Respectfully disagree and ready for the flames. I enjoy the weekly postings. It makes the story last longer. I was never one for quickies. Thick, deep, and long lasting is more my flavor. Wouldn't you agree, Mr. Gray? LOL

It's Taggart. He's a grower, not a shower. There is so much in reserve with Taggart. More so than the typical quiet masculine type. I sense there's been tragedy in his life, maybe with the loss of a great love. You're rocking it, Mr. Gray.

Sending light and positivity to both you and tim. I can't imagine how difficult this is for you both, but know there are people that you've never met who wish you both only the best. That's the type of community that tim and you have built here.

You never come out of the gate weak, do you Mr. Gray? I'm hooked already, probably because my weakness is cowboys. How did you know? LOL Nah, you're just an excellent writer who can capture his reader within a few moments. I can't wait for next week!

Been there, done that, no problem following. Medicare is your primary insurance and if you have not yet met the Part B annual deductible (currently $283) Medicare doesn't pay the claim and the secondary policy doesn't pay either. There's a separate deductible for hospitalizations (currently $1736) that applies for each occurrence of a hospitalization. Then there's the separate policy for the pharmacy benefits if your secondary doesn't have that included. This is more of an explanation for our friends who don't live in the USA. Getting old sucks. Ask me how I know this. LOL

Idiots and as*h^#es are not protected classes in The Fair Housing Act.

You know that Clueless is going to be a nightmare of a tenant. They'll be calling you to change light bulbs. 🤣

They should be able to prescribe or tell you what to ask for to treat the thrush. Our nickname for the treatment in the US is "swish and swallow" LOL

Refer her to your former retirement village trillah park. You know, the one where those tenants got on your last nerve and had to prove on the daily that there really are stupid questions. She'll fit right in. LOL Now get busy and take her job. Don't wait for her to retire. Put. Her. Out.

You've inadvertently identified your career goals. Study her closely. Record all of her screw ups. Use this information to your advantage, and next year, take her job. You managed a retirement property in Florida. This would be a piece of cake for you. LOL

The dash cams I have in my vehicles are the second best "peace of mind" investments I have made. There are too many scam artists out there, and people who won't take responsibility for their own actions as you have just found out. The first best is my AAA membership.

I fixed it for you.

Same here. Mine are too complex for me to even attempt to figure out. The bill from the accountant is the one bill that I never object to paying. The amount of money they've saved me and the headaches they've prevented more than justify their fees. Seriously, talk to some people and get recommendations for good accountants who are local. I guarantee you won't regret it.

Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies. Or I'll plead the 5th.

Hoping you will find a much better job in the near future if that's what you want. And at triple the salary! 🤞

That would explain so much about me. 🤣

Karma. May she find this thief and deliver 1,000,000 times worse than what was stolen. You're good people Kitt. That was so kind of you to step up and help her, but we all know how amazing you are.

WOW! I'm sorry you're hospitalized, but it was a good thing that you mentioned that your angina was acting up. No telling what could have happened if they didn't catch it. It would seem that the ER is the same worldwide. I could have sworn you were in my town's hospital here in the US by your descriptions. Hope they find the problem and that it isn't too serious. Get well soon, and remember to eat your chicken soup when you get out of hospital.

Horse->Water->Drink.

I changed my pulmonary doctor when I kept getting the run around from him and everyone associated with his practice. I actually got a recommendation from the amazing receptionist at my dentist's office who knew a PA at a great practice, so I booked a consult. The PA is great and she took one look at the CD of my last lung scan and immediately said "You've got emphysema." Long story short, I've been under her care now for 3 years and my last lung function test was so much better than my prior 2. They have no problems communicating with my primary care providers and vice a versa. The same "network" thing isn't a barrier or concern if you have good providers and they have each others contact information. Your health is too important to put up with a crappy doctor. Make the change.

Yeah, but make no mistake, Jeremy will still benefit in the end. Somehow. He's not all that altruistic. It would be a different scenario if he had come up with this on his own rather than being forcefully nudged into it by his therapist. If that were the case, I'd 100% agree with you, but it wasn't.

Hooked and it's not even the first chapter. Dang you're good Laura. LOL

Now that you know the password, change it to something you'll remember and he'll never guess. 😁

It's too late for this year, but look for a good tax accountant so you can be proactive before next year hits. Seriously, it's the best money I spend during the entire year and I've never regretted leaving that stress behind.
