Medical hooplah and little odds and ends.

June 12th, 2008 at 08:18 pm

Well, I had class, then went to the University health services. I had an appointment at 9:30am. As it turns out, I have a viral infection in my throat, but I basically have to ride it out. Still hurts to swallow, and again last night I kept continually waking up. But other than that, I feel fine. Perhaps a bit tired.

The best news? The visit was free, and they even gave me cough drops and a few allergy pill samples (they said it might help). Also, I found out that my university offers discounted massages in the wellness center, so I signed myself up for a much-needed 30 minute massage for $15. You really cant beat that price, and with the amount of stress I've been in lately, I can sacrifice in order to enjoy that luxury Smile

I got pretty worried about my throat, and it got me thinking today about how much it would cost had I needed to go to the regular doctor's. I no longer have insurance because mom and step-dad split. After all of this tuition mess is taken care of, I'm going to start a medical EF. Mom is getting me just-in-case insurance, but it'll only cover things after the first $1000, but I'm going to need that $1000 on hand if things do come up...

A funny thing happened at the doctor's this morning. The nurse commented on how much she liked my earrings, and I mentioned that I made them. She said, "really?" and I said, "yeah, I make jewelry and accessories." She asked if I sold them anywhere, and I told her online. So she gave me her email address for me to send her links Smile It was definitely a nice start to my day!

Also, my missing bobbin case came in the mail today, so my sewing machine is up and running. Need to start working on some projects now Smile I meant to run to the craft store today, but it's not looking like I'm going to have enough time. Tomorrow I dont have class, so I'll probably go after work.

Tonight I'm going over to mom's to hang out. Lil sis is having a sleepover. Mom is going to need another big girl to hang out with Smile

And last, but not least, once again made good money at work. $55. It's been a good work week. I'm not complaining!

Hope everyone enjoys the rest of thier day!

    wow congrats on the interest on your jewellery. it's nice when things like that come together!
    a similar thing happened to my boyfriend, he is a timber floor installer and was installing a new floor for a lady at her house. he had to first rip up all the old floorboards, and the lady commented on how much she liked the old floor and that it had such sentimental value. my BF mentioned how he sometimes makes furniture out of old flooring because it's always good quality wood, and the lady asked him to make her an outdoor table, she paid him $600 to make a table out of her own wood! anyway it was a good day for BF, as you can imagine!

    I hope your throat feels better soon. We have had the weird "beginning of summer" stuff going through our house. Cold? Allergies? Who knows!
