By the way, you'll probably notice that there will be several
messages that I'm not responding to, at least right away. I've got a _huge_ backlog, and I really pruned some of the threads that were way
out of date back there. They were all regarding conversational
tangents that things seem to keep wrapping back around to, anyway. ;)
With any luck, they'll not be made of glass and shatter when you dropYeah. God the call of having a 5-digit bank account is screaming at
them... <G> Seriously, though, staying reasonably frugal makes good
sense... then when the inevitable down times come, one is in a better
position to weather them, both by practice and by not already being
over-extended... :)
me lately. I really don't have very far into the 4s, either.
Certainly not enough to sustain for more than a month or two. That's
the moving fund, too.
Keep your fingers crossed for more contract work to come in here.
I'm starting to look for more hourly stuff around here, too. Stuff
that hopefully I'll be able to manage; entry levelish yet still interesting, hopefully.
Indeed. Unbroken bootstraps might be helpful... but those calling forWell it's good that some people understand that. ;)
their use rarely supply the need... ;0
Shoulda been running and meditating instead of picking up the smoking,Well my body is in good enough condition now that I've been able to
after all... ;) But yeah, I hear you... :)
start back with some things. Even some [very limited] muscular work on my upper body, though it's weaker than I've ever trained back from before. I took my 3rd run without missing any today. Forgot my
inhaler, though, and had an asthma attack 15 minutes out, so it didn't really go as well as it could have.
It's a good time to drop the smokes again, you've got that part right.
That's part of the problem with needing meds... no way to have a moreNot really any way other than the VA right now, no. Like I
reliable way of getting them than what you have now...? And probably no
way to build yourself a small emergency stockpile to tide you over when
this sort of thing happens... You'd think that the VA would recognize
the importance of keeping the meds stable to keep you stable...
mentioned in the other message, though, this is a constant goal of
mine, as it is for you. I'll see what I'm able to manage.
Not a problem... As long as you keep your end of the conversation up,
and don't lose the important bits, that's what counts... ;) And, as you've probably noticed, I've been slowly responding back, anyway... ;)
Did all of the mess around the late etc payments finally get
straightened around...?
Hopefully the contract work will pick up again quickly... :) As for
the hourly work, also hopefully something that will easily fit your schedule around Deschain's school hours, and that isn't too far away for your transportation there.....
Next time, remember your inhaler.. ;) But that sounds like some decent progress... :)
Mind you, I'm speaking as a non-smoker... but with friends and family
that do smoke... In my experience, though, observing, the smokes never really do do as much good as they are supposedly doing, and cause health problems of various sorts as well...
Does talking to your VA docs do any good...? You'd think they'd have
some interest in keeping you stable... you'd think, anyway... ;0
