I've been hurt by someone who was once a friend. I want people to know that once I've moved... Continue Reading →

Hundreds of thousands of Medicare recipients hit the "donut hole" where they become responsible for the next $3,000 dollars worth of medications. More coverage at Pharmalot. I wrote a few days ago that GSK would be paying for my drugs. Well, it turns... Continue Reading →
My husband left today for at least 2 weeks and possibly more. Don't know that I'll be writing much or reading blogs too much in the next couple of weeks. I have lots more responsibilities than usual. I got a ton of boxes today and will start packing tomorrow. Plan to do a bit each... Continue Reading →
