The Lord giveth.......

The Lord giveth and the hospital taketh away. After the recent flood, I managed to clear about $800 in overtime. Guess what! We just got a bill from the hospital from when Deb went a couple of weeks ago with a migraine. We still owe $853 AFTER the insurance. We were there for 2 hours, the first 45 minutes of which were out in the waiting room. The total bill was just shy of $3000! She got some meds in an I-V and a cat-scan. This has been one hell of a summer. Teeth, glasses, water well, and now hospital. What's next, a plague of locusts? I'll probably live a long time, because God loves jacking with me. Got plenty of grass in the field, though. The calves are pecker deep in grass. ho ho. It took 3 hours to mow the yard, Sunday. It should have been baled. Still haven't done the place between the barn and the fence, because of standing water. We have a multitude of flies and mosquitos right now. Never a dull moment. Oh, we went to Jos's Crab Shack on our anniversary (35) last Saturday. I had the full crab deal. Yummy! Deb got her first Patron` margarita. She was impressed. I just renewed my driver license. It's $24 now. When I was 14, I got my first DL for $4.50. Gasoline was 24 cents, too. Gotta have your social security card, as well, and they took both thumb prints. More homeland security, I guess. Gotta go for now. Rick.
