Another day of having to breathe through my mouth, running through a lot of Kleenex, and feeling someone put a lead weight on my lungs, plus my stomach feels like Kīlauea with all the acid reflux. And I forgot to cancel physical therapy tomorrow, so I have to go in or pay a fee.

My daughter also got the runaround at the base hospital. Apparently there are provider issues and the new insurance provider hasn't completely kicked in yet (supposed to Jan 1). So she and my husband had to wait over two hours before she can be seen. She was given referrals that are past her birthday, so I have to scramble and find how we can get supplementary insurance at $315/month.

I need to make dinner, since everyone feels like crap except daughter's boyfriend who can only make spaghetti and meatloaf, neither of which sounds appealing. So off I go...I can make a quick chicken noodle soup.

My mood is pretty crappy, mainly because of this freaking cold.
