I don't like going to the dr. so I just don't go.

but now I have hyper-tension, so have to go once a year for a checkup to get my $1.49/3 month prescription renewed. love the cheap meds. the $30 copay. whatever. but today's chick I like even less than the regular one...pushing the mammogram, colonoscopy, and pap smear, as usual, AND wanting to check my cholesterol. newsflash: sure it is bad. and while weight loss wasn't mentioned, half hour of exercise in addition to work 5 days a week, fresh vegetables, lean proteins, and limited salt intake were. do I know these things? yes. in fact, I am aware. will I follow? depends on the day. she insisted on blood work to check for something and my thyroid, since I have gained weight in the last year. AND a urine specimen to check for organ damage due to hypertension. my b/p is "controlled" at 140/I don't remember bottom number. I don't like looking for shit that is wrong. I am dealing with the blood pressure. ok? I am not into preventative pro-active medical shit. I do take vitamins. they were concerned that I take Aleve EVERYDAY since that can cause high blood pressure. and the dr. asked if I had a hernia or my stomach just looked like that? you're the frickin' PA. whatever. hope I don't get her again next year....I think I am most pissed that I will have to pay for the blood work and UA.

after picking up my Rx, Kevin calls me. we got a letter from American Family, they are going to cancel insurance on his new truck due to factors....listing all our claims. and that Taylore wasn't underwritten on our insurance. he calls our agent, to get his secretary and find out that today is their last day, he has sold the office and they are retiring. they can't access our account to tell us what is going on. we don't know the chick taking over. plus, kinda rude to not let us know what is going on, etc. so, he calls the local AF agent, she tells us quickest way to change agent so she can get into our account and see what can be salvaged here. so, I get the ball rolling on that. it's always fuckin' something. back to Homestead Rescue. put my problems into perspective.

Ever since I started FBLA my freshman year, I have wanted to go to nationals. It has always been my goal, and I finally reached it my senior year 📚 Here's the first two days of our trip!!

wisdom from Noah. I especially liked this tiny bit of Alaskan Bush People. they understand family.

I am somewhat envious of Ami Brown, having her children with her so long. Children of course are supposed to go up and go their own way in the world. but what if they could make their own way and you could see them every day? what then?

"It's important to think about everything that's happened in the past, mainly all the good things, hopefully...In the end, when I am 90 years old, all I have are my memories. If you don't think of them fondly, then you don't think of them at all. I want to keep every memory I have with my family, I want to keep it exactly how it is and how it was."

deathwhen.com says I have 20073 days until my death.

sounds good to me!

Koren: We got to meet Zerelda today! Ian and Coralie were very excited to meet their new cousin ❤️

Taylore: Zerelda got to meet her cousins Coralie and Ian! She also met Aunt Koren!

Taylore: You are my sunshine, my only sunshine You make me happy when skies are gray 💗

Taylore: Nothing gives you a heart attack like being home alone with your daughter while the tornado siren goes off 5 times

she is a good mom. there are so many tests. so many monumental events. you just work your way thru each one and carry on....

Colard's Delusion or Walking Corpse Syndrome leaves people spending time in cemeteries and sincerely believing they are dead.

to sleep, perchance to dream....

and this one was a doozy! setting: Grandma Grace's house. I am huge, like Mama June when the show first started. I have pressure sores on the sides of my face, I am so fat. I go to Grandma's house. I can't find her anywhere. finally I realize that she has been reincarnated into a tiny wrinkled newborn baby with wise eyes. Grandma's eyes. So, I carry her around and tell her her life story. The family starts trickling in. Shawn and Karlan and a boy. some girl who is in a bathtub in the kitchen in barefeet stirring beans. Cousin Rob is there, she has brought dishes of green and orange something and her and a guest are eating them. People are expecting a big family dinner, but I just want to show them that Grandma is back. That tiny house is brim full of people, everyone is ignoring me. I'm trying to tell them how miraculous this is. Grandma is back! Here she is! look at this baby's eyes!

today Katie went on FBLA Nationals trip. she texted me pics from the plane.

maybe someday we'll get to fly together! she's flown east twice, and now west. our little girl is going places!

Kevin went fishing today and posted a selfie on facebook!!!

#missourisummer #thecalmafterthestorm☔️ — in Mercer, Missouri.

we started out storm watching on front porch after electricity went out, we then retreated inside and headed to basement. then we went out driving to see what was what...yeah, we've become those people...Taylore & I texted back and forth. she was home with Zerelda. they lost power, they went to basement. Baby Zee slept thru it all. she's a trooper!

Kevin helped me figure milage for KY trip. ends up KY is in another time zone...an hour ahead of us. who knew?

8.5 hour drive fastest route. the haunted pizza place is another 1.5 hour. each way. ghost hunt at Waverly Hills from 11:30p.m.-6a.m. have a 12-2 tour at Bobby Mackey's Music World. 1.5 hour away. maybe we got a bit ambitious???? hope we survive this. maybe I should've had him help me figure out fountain soda expenses too???
