"I'm Singing In The Rain"
It looks like it might rain all day but I need a day off anyway. I just hope my son has the rest of the day dry for the rib contest.
It also looks like I might have to live the rest of my life with only one kidney. The surgeon said it has grown from 2.8 centimeters to 4 in just a month, so it is a very fast growing mass. I feel like asking him how long the rest of my life is but I guess I'd rather not know when it comes right down to it. They don't like to commit themselves until they get in there to say just what kind of mass it is so for now it's just a left renal mass. Surgery is scheduled in 6 days.
I feel very fortunate that my Medicare started in February and my secondy insurance started July 1st. I almost got help from DSHS to pay for my appendix bills that Medicare didn't cover but then I picked up a few new jobs during the month that I was applying for so my income was too great to qualify. I contacted the hospital and they said they would work with me to get my payments to them affordable. I'm sure there are many others who can't afford it so they can have my share.
I had to hire extra help so I'd be caught up in all my accounts when I have to take time off. I couldn't really afford to pay them but at least I won't have mass work to come back to after I heal.
I'm totally convinced that I'm not a good boss. I have a hard time telling them to stop talking and texting all day. The best I could do was to tell them to keep moving when their mouths move. I told them they don't have to not talk just keep the work going when the mouth opens. Oh well, at least I won't have to do that again for awhile. If I can just keep the rest of my body in tune I'll probably make it a few more years. I can sure feel it if I don't get my morning dance in so "Let's All Dance"
