    Beats paying Dr bills and they say I don't know. I have been dealing with my right eye losing vision for 5-10 minutes for coming up on a year, they still have no idea.The other day I was about to head in 20 minutes and the right head light was still out, then it came back. Pretty much filled my yearly out of pocket on scans and tests and nothing.

    Yep, same here. They couldn't do echeck so I have to deposit a check to transfer funds between accounts.

    I just wish they would send one bill as I was in there for 2 hours on a single day. Got the bulk of the bill today, but I'm certain I'll receive nickel amd dime bills from "verifiers", I verified a tissue sample or an x-ray was read correctly, please send $175 immediately. Always look at these and wonder where my insurance came into play as there is no adjustment.

    Anyhow, is what it is and had to be done. Go to Dr. Friday and hopefully be shooting the bow next weekend.

    That sucks, hope you can get it figured out. Guessing they've already scanned for a tumor or something pressing on a nerve and whatnot?

    Good luck with it, mine was 3 hernia repairs resulting in 3 days of the worst pain I have ever imagined afterwards.

    Weird stuff when your eye goes out, my shooting eye too, wouldn't that suck. It is weird they have eliminated all the stuff that would kill me quick.

    Today is the day I get my sidewalk and patio poured.

    So, what's the rant?

    They ran out of concrete 5 feet short on the sidewalk! They had to pull the form for the step to get just enough to finish. This is colored concrete. Good luck getting the next batch the same color. Not to mention that it is to be stamped.

    Going to be an interesting conversation with the contractor!

    Well you can't really call yourself a hunter until you've got some hunting related credit card debt.....

    I hate using CCs. As little as possible for me. But this looks to be an exception. Pretty hard to travel anywhere on cash these days.

    Due to it being so "frustrating" I bounced work for the afternoon. **** like that really makes my always present disdain for most people become heightened. ;) I hope Luigi is happy with my money he stole.

    Anyway. Pulling a Sota. Already home and on beer 2. Think I will shoot my bow a bit then pour a bourbon and float in the pool. FTW

    1 working with banks, you learn you have better liability /protection using a CC compared to a debit card. Even though I hate debt too. Good luck man!

    2 (non sequiter) how are the birds?

    Political ads are starting to hit Youtube. I had to sit staring at Pelosi for five seconds before the "Skip ad" button became available and the Chuck Schumer halfway through it. What a way to ruin The Hunting Public's latest video.

    Starting?

    We've been enduring them for months in NC.

    The meme holds true, even for politics.

    Yeah... seems funds are beginning to flow back now appears they are approving and reversing one transaction at a time perhaps.

    Birds are good. The flock has grown and we've had some ups and downs. Aka couple tragic turkey deaths, many quail deaths during hatch but mostly watching my 8 yr old daughter process and accept all that. I think she has learned alot. Me as well.

    Have 32 quail at the moment but we will be sexing the latest batch soon and some roos will be culled.

    I was just about to say the same thing - The joys of living in a swing state I guess. Its barely even September and I am already sick of Joe Biden and his ****-eating grin dropping in and interrupting me every time I am in the middle of an intense procrastination session.

    Biden has been way more prevalent for me until the last week or two but seems like Trump is starting to ramp up his interruptions as well. Either way, I wish the both of them would butt out because I don't go on YouTube to watch a couple old men whining about each other. I am there to watch videos of deer getting arrowed and maybe an occasional hog sounder getting blown up with tannerite, that's it.
