Yep. Gaming more than I have in years probably just to keep myself sane.
Had a supply drop of cigarettes arrive last night and luckily I found my Twisp (along with 2 bottles of flavors) in my cupboard which has been an absolute life saver. My neighbor also smokes Twisp and he has like 30 bottles so I may even survive this.(That is until the coil breaks).
And my dad brought me 3 cigars.
Beer supply is running critically low and my supplier seems to have vanished.
Its absolutely mental dude, the same with my dentistry stuff, the medical aids cover a fraction of it.
The rest is out of pocket EVEN when you have a medical health saver with said insurer to cover those out of pocket costs. SInce mine never ever used that, I authorised them to use that health saver account for the next 4 months to pay my medical aid, that way I have a little more of my uif money for food and such than paying a 1/3 to medical aid
My cardiologist emails me my new script for my heart medicine and includes spf25 sunscreen in it. I thought that was weird! It turns out one of the meds makes the skin photosensitive so I have to use sunscreen.
Lucky for me I see the sun for a total of like 10 minutes a day, through the day
I also remember there being some kind of DIY thread topic. If I find it it is getting renamed “Home Improvement” to (a) make it easier to find and (b) because I’m feeling nostalgic.
It is SO hard not to worry. My wife went under the knife in a 5 hour back op just a little while ago. Due to the lockdown, I cannot visit or see her for 10 days, other than through the phone.
