In an update to the asthma drug saga, they gave me a prescription for my old inhaler (the one that doesn't work well, but it at least works a little) and increased my shots. BOTH the ladies I talked to completely understood why I didn't want the Advair (even if it works wonders for some!) neither gave me more info about my test results (though I didn't ask...). And of course, my asthma has been much better ever since.
However, I'm currently in the middle of an INSANE SCRAMBLE to get ready to drive up to Belfast, Maine after work tomorrow. What I'm doing typing in LJ is beyond me! Also, Pax is having a hell of a time at work due to computer issues and having family stress - we still don't know if he can come with me or not. It seems like every time I plan one of these things, his life goes to shit. I really miss vacations with my family + going to all the old places, but I hate that this happens to him EVERY SINGLE TIME.
Work has also been crazy. We're taking over operations for two/four warehouses in western NY/PA, and it's been maddness.
The economy has me nervous, but I think we're actually in a pretty good place - I'm just hoping that the $$ I have in my 401k isn't getting moved around too much. It mostly worries me what effect this will have on our parents + the rest of our community.
..And I feel pretty much the same about the election. I'm just hoping that my race/gender will get our heads out of our "Va-jay-jay"s for long enough to see that good qualities in a VP really are different than good qualities in a fellow carpool mom. Also, if you didn't know, we have three questions on the ballot - a measure to abolish the state income tax (as if it won't result in regressive taxes), a measure to change the classification of possesion of pot, and a measure to abolish dog racing. I feel my votes are more needed/useful there than for the presidentail campagin, but I'm OK with that!
