And Les's procedures.....and then we can focus on the move.
Les is trying a pain management procedure again, this Wednesday and the following Wednesday, that involves the doc taking a lidocaine-soaked, long-handled q-tip and sliding it up his nose until it hits brain/it touches a particular nerve that may be responsible for his rebound migraines. Yeah, you needed to know that.
Until then, the migraines have been knocking him on his ass for 3 or 4 days out of the week lately, instead of just 2, so it's hard to get on his case about not looking for work. Besides, we're close enough where he probably oughta just be looking for prospects in Columbia.
It's completely idiotic and lazy of us that we never filed his SS disability paperwork. We still can, of course, and will...in the meantime, the damn holidays are going to be tight again, regardless of whatever bonus I can glean from the company. Of course, ideally, about half that bonus oughta be saved for the move, especially since cashing in my stock options when the time comes may turn out to tender a much lower number than desired.....that seems like an impossible idea, and it really shouldn't; it's all a matter of financial responsibility and organization. Anybody know where I can get some of that?
I've been checking out south Columbia, which offers an apparently easy interstate drive to Les's school. Don't know about the crime rate, but the houses look affordable.
In spite of our tenuous situation, I'm talking with Les about starting to try for kids now, because my body's been playing tricks on me in the fertility department and it has me spooked. I go see my doc at the end of the month for advice; I know I'm still too heavy, so I want her to put the fear of high-risk pregnancy into me.
