@BethRags, that is great news about your free insulin for your kitty! Vet and pet medication prices are horribly high. When our last parrot died (at the vet's office) we were left with extreme grief and a bill literally for $1,000. The big cost was from tests that determined why he got sick. It was important to know, but ugh! @whatever2013, sending well wishes that your doggy has something minor and not diabetes.

@Jennifer 1967, ahhh the beauties of falling in love! My 66 year old sister-in-law has recently fallen head over heals for a man in her neighborhood. We now don't hear from her as often as she's much busier. When I took a hike with her over the holidays she was like a giddy school girl.

@downandlonely, it's cold where I am in Czech Republic, but I have experienced the extreme heat in southeast Asia, in the past. I remember being in Thailand in the month of April. Brutal! It made my native state of New Jersey's hot humid summers seem like spring weather.

In less than 30 minutes, I'm having an online meeting/interview with an instructor from a Czech language school. I plan to study Czech online, initially. I'm actually a touch nervous, but it's the right move to get going. Someday I'll move to in-person classes. Could be a continuation of Czech, or maybe someday French. We'll see.

Next Wednesday Hubby gets his 3rd covid booster shot. As for me? Maybe. The government support rep was supposed to call yesterday, but didn't. The woman there said that I could try going with Hubby and seeing if they could sign me up and give the 3rd booster on the spot. [Not the official method of registering.] Wish me luck. The whole hassle for me has been a result of an IT type system glitch. I am in their system, though. I have the certificate proving my first two boosters.
