CJ, you would think they there is no waiting if you think you're having a heart attack but that's not how it works where I live. First and foremost they want to know if you have insurance. No insurance or crappy insurance & you're S.O.L. Also, they are more likely to take you in if you are a man. They don't take women as seriously and women's symptoms for heart attack can be different. But, I think it also depends on where you live. Where I live they don't take women seriously. My friend's grandma went to the ER with a heart attack. They made her wait behind other non-critical male patients even though she was brought in an ambulance. After about 4 hours of waiting her son took her to another hospital with fewer patients & that hospital was able to see her & treat her-- said if she had waited longer she would have died. This was before Covid. Our system here is f***ed up.
Highup, I hope replacing that one gasket will fix things. Good luck with that wiring harness. Will your brother require surgery eventually? Bowl obstructions can be very painful from what I've heard.
Havasu, Happy Birthday!
I went to Sams to pick up stuff and did a curbside pickup order. Since the app won't load on my phone I tried calling but nobody answered the phone. I was lucky enough to catch the lady who brings stuff out to vehicles when she was just finishing up loading someone's stuff. I told her I couldn't get the app to work on my phone and had tried to set up texting but it didn't seem to be working and that nobody answered when I called. No arguments about trying to install the app from her. She asked my name and grabbed my order. Then came out and asked me to pull up to the loading area as some of the stuff was heavy. My brother and I got out in the loading area to help. My brother got the heaviest stuff for her. Much less hassle this time. Popped in to the nearest Walmart to grab something that wasn't available at Sams for our friend.
Dropped stuff off at our friend's house and headed home. He messaged me later saying there was a problem. I thought it was with the diapers or something but then he said a rat chewed a hole in the power cable for his refrigerator and he couldn't find any electrical tape to temporarily patch it. So I grabbed some from the house as well as a UV disinfectant box that Mom wanted me to give him, and headed over. He called just as I was pulling up to his house and said he wanted to bring a cat in to kill the rat and asked me to hit the nearest store for spray foam (to seal the hole in the wall to block the rat), a litterbox, litter scoop, cheap litter, and cat food. Store had no spray foam but I grabbed steel wool & told him to cram it in the hole and tape it if need be. He patched the wire and fridge is working again. I then searched for a replacement cord and sent him the link. He's going to order it. I forgot to ask if he needed any wire nuts for the meantime.
I was exhausted after that so I was napping. Mom paged me in a rage saying something about the hamburger meat being bad and that it was like I was flushing her money down the toilet. Then she shouted something else and hung up. I checked the meat and got my brother to check it for a 2nd opinion. It's not bad. She was just being melodramatic. Also, it's rich to hear her complain about throwing money away on wasted food considering how whenever she went grocery shopping herself she would get all kinds of stuff she said she was going to cook, never cooked it, and it would go bad. She always had a lot of wasted food every month. The rest of us weren't allowed to touch it because she "had plans" for it. So it would go bad and I'd have to clean it out.
I'll have to cook the meat today.
