Starting Radiation October 2019

I don't want the vaccine but if forced was planning on the J&J. Now, I'm back to nothing for now.
Today, I was on a selling roll. I sold two things from Facebook and two off Ebay. Then, I was driving to Office Max and a man in an old car backed out very quickly and messed up my car door. He had no insurance. Now, my profit will go to the $500 deductible. I still owe the hospital. I need to get busy selling some more goodies.

Petite1 - Yes, I heard about it later. J&J was my least favorite one, even though it was only 1 dose.
Kamboka - That's crazy! Did the guy offer you anything? That stinks! I should get you to sell my stuff on Facebook Marketplace. I haven't had ANY luck with the last batch of things I am trying to sell. Years ago I used to sell on ebay and did okay, not great. I really don't want to have to do that again. I may take some of the stuff to a local online auction.

Kamboka, he shouldn't have a license without insurance. Is he going to pay for it?

He didn't have a license or insurance! Not sure what happened to him as they let me leave before him. Tomorrow, I'll go get an estimate for repairs.
I've been in a crazy cycle the last 24 hours. Today, I spent two hours on the phone with AT&T and at the UPS store. I turned in some equipment that AT&T didn't receive and they wanted to charge me $120. The manager at UPS would not accept responsibility even though I had a receipt saying I had left it with them. Long story short, finally a nice lady at AT&T (third call) refunded me the money without me even having to send the receipt.
Also forgot to say that the Instapot that I got off Ebay and sold on Facebook yesterday was damaged. I had not even taken it out of the box and the man who bought it sent me photos. I told him to come back and get the other one and Ebay did give me a refund. So I thought I had two Instapots and now I have none!

Kamboka - That is crazy! Was there tracking on the UPS package? I usually ship things UPS so maybe I will have to reconsider if they don't take responsibility for their deliveries. It's funny but I was on the phone yesterday with Verizon because we have the slowest internet speed possible right now (3mbps/1mbps) and despite the fact Verizon keeps telling me otherwise, we can run 2 desktops, 2 laptops, online gaming, and 3 cell phones on it at a time (or most of them at a time). Our router started giving us trouble so I called Verizon and and we are bumping up to a newer router and 200/200 speed (lowest they will do). The lady told me I would have to send back the router to them and she was going to send me packing labels, box, etc. Well, after doing some checking she came back on the phone and said they wouldn't take it back now because it was very old and they don't want it anymore. Just pitch it. Haha! LOL!

mocame, Spectrum did the same for us. I did notice the old one was just sitting on my husband's desk. Maybe I can sell it as an antique on ebay. LOL
Kamboka, I bought some estate jewelry on ebay week before last and when it arrived it looked like USPS had used it for a football. I sent it back and did get a full refund.

The UPS store said they ship Comcase back separately and therefore I had a tracking number. With AT&T, they wait to get four or more and then send as a bundle. He didn't have a tracking number as he said he didn't know which shipment mine went in. I'm just happy AT&T refunded me the money.
Yesterday, I listed about 12 paperweights and today I listed four of my Lladros. If I could sell my two rings, I could pay off my hospital bill.

Kamboka, Good luck with your sales.

I just signed up for the Ciitizen study. Are you all thinking about? I'm a marketing major so am always ready to do surveys. I've done focus groups too and received compensation.

My magnolia tree is shedding into my neighbors yard and he has made a few remarks about it. This morning I raked his yard and mine. Then, I signed the form to send to homeowners association asking for permission to chop down the tree! The good thing is that a few months ago, I would not have been able to rake for five minutes and I did an hour. The bad news is that I'll probably be very sore tomorrow. I'm hoping they will not make me replace the tree with something else. It's already expensive enough to cut one down. If the tree had those beautiful white blossoms, I might reconsider but it doesn't.

Kamboka, Wow. I don't know how you can do all that labor. Especially post op. I certainly couldn't do raking. I think the last time I raked was 12 years ago. LOL Rain today. Radar looks bad up there where you are.

It stopped raining at about 10 this morning and started back at about 5. I had time to run to the grocery store. Today, only the back of my thighs are sore. That's a miracle. This rain is dropping more leaves and I don't want to do that raking again.

Kamboka - Great job on the sales! I think magnolia trees are beautiful when blooming but I don't think I would want one in my yard. My husband got me a new seat for my bike and even though I do low impact aerobics 5 mornings a week and I walked yesterday afternoon, I got on the bike and went to test drive the seat and...Oh my word! I'm so out of shape!

Kamboka, We had a bad storm last night and more rain to start this morning.
mocame, I am so out of shape even with all the walking I do. I haven't been to the gym in a long time.

Even though they predicted rain all day, it turned into a really nice sunny moderate temperature day. I started my four sessions of chiropractic adjustments that I bought off Groupon. After that, I want to do acupuncture for my foot neuropathy. Today I also sent a note to four tree services to get some quotes. Right now, the lowest is $600. (I need to file my taxes, maybe I can get that back).

It is a gray morning. We had several bouts of heavy rain. My GI system is acting up. I think it is a good day just to read a book.

Petite1 - I hope you feel better soon! We are having a warm sunny day today but starting tomorrow, it's going to get cold. Thursday's highs won't even reach 50! Yuck!
Kamboka - I hear acupuncture is supposed to work well for neuropathy. Have you had acupuncture before?
0 -
Good morning, ladies. The sun is out and it looks like it will be a beautiful day. I am feeling better and hoping to get some chores done.
0 -
petite1: Glad you are feeling better. The weather was wonderful here today.
mocame: Too bad it will get cold again in April. In my head it should never be cold in April. The Spring is my favorite season--not too hot and not too cool. I had acupuncture throughout my chemo and I think it helped me feel better. I haven't really had it for the neuropathy but some people swear by it. I'm not sure about he chiropractic work. I'll have my fourth visit on Friday and then I'll either have to quit or pay the full prices.

Well, it's 31 degrees here this morning! We have freeze warnings out until 9 AM this morning. Brr! I had to put the winter coat on to take the dog out this morning. Next week it's supposed to get into the mid-70s to 80. Crazy weather.
Kamboka - I go to the chiropractor once-in-awhile. Usually when my body gets too "tight" and it loosens things up. Part of my exercise routine in the morning involves a move that twists my body and usually I hear a lot of cracking happen and I think that helps. Like when the chiropractor twists you. Haha! My husband has back and other issues and he goes to the chiropractor more often. There are even whole families that get adjusted, including infants. We've never done that.

Good morning. I have only been to a chiropractor once. It didn't do anything for me. That was decades ago. Stretches and yoga seem to work best for me. It is a pretty morning.

Yesterday was 85, today was 64 and breezy. I had to put on my shawl to walk down the road. Tomorrow should be the perfect 75!
The Chiro gave me some CBD oil which seems to have a little effect. I might just opt out after my four adjustments and then start acupuncture. The Chiro did show me a few stretches.

Kamboka, It was 54 when I got up and now 66. It is pleasant.
I am doing laundry and might get together with my BFF later on.

I think we got to mid 70s today. It was wonderful. My Chiro said my insurance was accepted but I have a $25 co-pay. I guess I'll try a few more sessions. She's trying. I went to an estate sale today. I've never seen so much glassware. Every room and the garage was packed. I bought a few nice little vases, tea cups and an antique side table. Tomorrow, there is only one that I want to hit and maybe a few yard sales.

Petite1 - I've never tried yoga yet. I'm not really very coordinated and usually clumsy. I used to do more stretches so maybe I will try those again.
Kamboka - You make me chuckle with you going to sales and then selling stuff on Facebook. You must have a real knack for it. I lowered my prices on the stuff I have for sale on Facebook today. So far I haven't had even a nibble and my prices are not very high.

mocame: I still believe that when Facebook changed their format last September, the traffic has slowed down. I used to check the daily entries but now there is no way of knowing what was posted each day. My stuff has lingered too. Last summer, it was going fast. I tried Offer Up but that was even slower. I've had a little luck on Poshmark. I'm going to try some auctions soon.
petite1: I had some yoga classes a few years ago when I was out in Utah at a health fitness place. I liked the pilates more but I've not done it enough.

mocame, I use to do a video for the yoga and exercises, but after BC, I have not done the video. I just do the yoga stretches and breathing.
Kamboka, Florida is the best place for yard sales and estate sales. I love it. Flea markets are good too. The outskirts, not under roof are the folks that are renting a space for a day to get rid of junk. That is a good place for deals. The ones under roof are always there.
I am still selling on ebay. Since my thumb has range of motion, I have been about to do some refurbishing jewelry. Unfortunately what designs are in my head don't always make it out my fingers. LOL I was doing a redesign on an old 1930's brooch and it was so bad, I put it in a bag of broken junk. 2 other pieces came out wonderful and sold. I am redoing a Monet bracelet, now. It is iffy.

petite1: Your jewelry making sounds interesting. You should post a few things you've redone. I bought a silver ring this weekend at the estate sale from a fellow that does jewelry design. Not sure why I bought it since I don't wear any jewelry. It was pretty so I'm trying to do better with wearing it. I hope your thumb cooperates. I had planned to get out of the city and roam around these smaller towns for fleamarkets and little shops but with the cost of gas going up, I'm sticking closer to home.

Petite1 and Kamboka - When my parents go to Florida every year, they always go to flea markets in different towns.
Speaking of radiation, did your radiation drs tell you that if you have radiation, you are more apt to get skin tags? Mine didn't tell me that and I got a bunch of skin tags under my radiated armpit and during one of my BS dr appointments, she mentioned that. Now I'm trying to get rid of them. I don't have any under my non-radiated arm.

mocame, I don't remember the RO saying anything about that and so far, no problem.
