No the next Pope hasn’t been elected, (who cares anyhow) but we did come to an agreement with the “other side” on the misses neck yesterday. We agreed to settle for having her medical bills covered (with certain restrictions like no surgery) for the next two years. While we could have pushed for some cash, the amount was so small that we opted instead to go for having her bills covered. After all, this is all we wanted in the first place. Hopefully now we can get her all fixed up. In addition we will receive what’s known as a “denial of the neck” meaning they deny that they or their doctors did anything to cause injury to her neck. (too funny) This means our regular insurance will also cover any issues regarding her neck. She also had to agree to not go to work for Whole Foods again, duh! We’re glad this is finally over.
Yesterday I was off to Vail in the morning freak snowstorm and made it up there by 8:45. I was back in Denver by 11:15 and then proceeded to box a bunch more wine. Today I’m off to Ft. Collins for a “work with” for the day. This is where I ride around with a manager from the distributor and see key accounts to sell them wine. I should be home by 6pm.
The misses laid low and I hit the grocery store, the bank and ran an assortment of other errands.
The youngest had Student Council yesterday after school and in true leader fashion, he suggested an idea for the school that everyone loved and adopted right away. His idea was to have a “Nerd Day” which will be school wide in a couple of weeks. Everyone in the entire school will dress up as a nerd, what fun!
I didn’t sleep well as I had a headache all night and I tend to wake every hour or so to check on the misses. She somehow manages to sleep on her back and doesn’t move all night, from what I can tell, which is good as she still has gook all over her face to keep it moist. They told her she’d be back to normal by Saturday but she’d better start healing fast for this to happen.
The 2013 football season officially started yesterday with free agency beginning at 2pm MST. This doesn’t mean much to most people except us die hard fans that watch every move our team and others make. I’m super excited as I love it. It’s one of my guilty pleasures.
In closing, our paper, The Denver Post has the Speaker of the House, who’s a democrat, kissing his male partner on the front page! Now I’m ok with civil unions as I’ve said before but this is going too far. It’s just too much “in your face” as little kids who don’t yet understand what being gay is, will surely see it, unbelievable. Oh well, not much surprises me anymore. Our kids understand who gay people are, they just don’t understand the “why”, especially the youngest. Nothing is sacred anymore, too bad.
Time to run as it’s 5:30 and I need to go wash the car and get ready for the day. Take care and God Bless.
