- That’s Ava Gardner, folks.
- Not only is WifeGeeding unable to properly load a dishwasher, she can’t properly wrap/wind the cord to the vacuum cleaner. Sometimes it looks like a twisted ball of yarn that’s just placed on top. I may have to invest in a cordless vacuum to save our marriage. As for myself, I like wrapping the cord in a figure-eight.
- I’ve mentioned that DaughterGeeding has had some health problems, nothing really concerning, and we’ve had to see a gastroenterologist a handful of times. One frustrating part is getting her the right medication. In the exam room, the doctor has a computer and will look up and verify if a medication is approved under our insurance plan. However, the last two times, the medication required a prior authorization, and after the doctor follows up, it gets denied and we’re told to try other medication. The latest medication only comes in a pill that can’t be crushed and isn’t available by liquid or another form that’s child-friendly. As children, WifeGeeding and I both had a lot of difficulty swallowing a pill, but surprisingly, DaughterGeeding, a five-year-old, has no problem with it.
