Good Morning 

LB, How did you sleep last night? You got a good one I hope.

Rainy gray cold here. Blah.

Very busy day yesterday so today is catch up day getting things done.

[LBLNJ0668]

I had trouble getting in earlier.  I am here now No did not sleep well, copper had to go at around 1ado #2 LOL Rainy here today today. So I went to check my script, Saxenda. (the weight loss injection I take to suppress my appetite.)  before picking it up since its a new year. I used to pay $20  figuring ater I reach deductable plus I had coupon fro the drug company  I wanted to make sure on price with duductable  well good thing I did.  It's over $1000!!!! I called the drug company and dthey are checking things out I aslo sent email to my insurance company to see if they no longer cover it etc. SO we'll see but  looks like I am no onger going to take that med once I am done with what I have

[paulie]

Hi LB, I'm glad you were able to get in here. Me too! Darn it to your sleep and Copper needing to go out. Geez. Well at least he woke you up for his #2 and didn't leave you a surprise for the morning!

About your Saxenda script. I have a saying .. yep another one .. hope it doesn't offend you but hear I go ... For s**ts sake!! I can imagine how surprised you were! The price going up to over $1000 is ridiculous!! Good for you calling the drug company and emailing your insurance company. When you find out let me know what they say. I sure hope that was a big mistake!!

Hoping you get a better night's sleep tonight. Tell Copper to "hold it" until you wake up for work. 

#3 .. and that critters cute face and smile is precious.

Hi Pauli Hi Jacaji miss you

Well not good news.  New year new deductable which iis $2550.  Of course Saxenda is around $1300 sso with all  deductable and such brng t ddown to $1000. Once I reach my deductable it will go down dramatically.  o now I have to call Saxenda. Their web site advertises how they can make it avvordabe  Even if they deduct $200 I am not payng $800 with I want it bac to $20  Soo I think I am through with the drug 3-4 weeks I am not going to use anymore.  All those drugs are expensive I compared them all.  I even checked good rx and all th epharmacys its like $1300 with discount of good rx. Good thing it's not a drug I need  to take for health reasons.  I may be better off doin gth bypass sugery LOL I was hopng 2023 would  be good year nope. It sucks   Hopefully I sleep tonight

Hi LB, Ouch to your new insurance deductible! Good to you thoroughly searching all of the web sites and yes definitely call Saxenda. I hope they can help you a lot. Hmmm about your sleep. Have you thought about OTC sleep aids that advertise safe and effective with no morning grogginess? I don't know if you'd want to try that .. or try on a weekend. Some good nights of sleep would help you. Just a thought.

jicaji said she's been having trouble getting on the forum. I miss seeing her here too.

Quote 1's cabin looks sooo cozy.

Life's a roller coaster for sure. I told my kids this growing up and now my granddaughters. It's true and when someone is on the down there will be an "up" coming to look forward to. The up will happen.
I tell them when we're on an up to enjoy it because life will bring a down .. deal with the down because there will be an up. It's just getting to the "up" and you will.

Well this Sunday snow is predicted then rain then slush. Blah What about you in NJ? The weather map looks like maybe you'll get rain.

[LBLNJ0668]

Well Hi Paulie and LB....I'm back.  Not sure what was going on with my computer, but this morning it let me on OK and I can post here....not that I have that much to say LOL.

Had a very nice visit with my daughter yesterday afternoon.  She started a new job and so far, so good....
 
Sunshine is peeking out a bit inbetween clouds and some light drizzle. 

Re: sleep....Ugh.  I was awake from 1a on and off until 5a. 

I'm going to catch up on some older postings that I missed.

Enjoy the weekend.

[paulie]

LB, Okay. Geesh you already use OTC sleep aid.

jicaji, Hi!! Good to see you!  Good that your computer straightened itself out. Best wishes to your daughter's new job. Your sleep pattern last night sounds frustrating for sure. I hope you sleep better tonight. Hopefully you do because you must be tired.

Good morning, welcome back Jacaji you were missed
Yes Paulie I use melatonin 

[paulie]

Good Morning,

LB, Okay. I've heard of Melatonin. You work from home this week I think. Good with colder rainy or snowy or both weather.

Hi jicaji

Well I should get my butt moving. lol I've been pokey this morning. One thing I want to do today is make a big pot of beef stew. Then let it snow and rain. I plan to stay inside. 

[LBLNJ0668]

LB....I've taken Melatonin and it does nada for me. 

Hi Paulie

My best friend had a breast biopsy yesterday.  I think I'm more nervous than she.  She has to wait 3 to 5 days for results.  Please say a prayer for Linda.

We had a Cooper's hawk visit my deck yesterday and I think it may have caught one of the birds at the feeder.  Not sure.  It came again today, but happily there were no birds around at the time.

Bad weather here tomorrow.  Snow and rain....Figures since I have to drive to get my hair done tomorrow.  The good news is that the salon has moved closer to me....yaay.  It's just about 10 minutes away now as opposed to 1/2 hour.

My middle granddaughter got on the Dean's list for last semester.  Proud Nana

Well, have to make dinner.  Have a good night all.
