Worked on my tax returns yesterday after hubby went to work. Got them done and e-filed them. Email confirmed they were accepted. So glad they are out of the way. Hubby getting along okay after returning to work? *sigh* He was excited, and picked up where he left off like he wasn't laid off for 18 months. Guys were so happy to see him return. And I think it's doing him good to be around other people besides just me. lol However, a week ago, we were shoveling the driveway and he hit a patch of ice and went down hard. His hip is screwed up causing much discomfort. (It's always something, isn't it?!) The bullhead that he is, doesn't want to go see the doctor. Says he'll give it some time with Aleve, a heating pad and Icy Hot.

Drifter, I'm glad your husband's return to work went so well! I hope his hip improves quickly; if he can still walk okay, it's probably not too serious. Even so, it wouldn't hurt to get an x-ray, but it doesn't seem 'Mr. Bullhead' (lol) will go that route.

Says it's the easiest job he's ever had in his life. Just programming computers, telling the robots what to do. He's walking okay. Is more stiff if he sits. Nope, Mr. Bullhead is tired of doctors. Just doesn't want to go to another one if he can help it. He's tired of tests. I don't blame him for that. On the morning of the 18th, he's scheduled for another CT scan and MRI. It's been 4 months ago he had those done. So, if no cancer shows up again, he won't have to have those tests for another 6 months.

Drifter, I can well understand that he's had more than his fill of doctors and medical procedures. Keeping my fingers crossed that he gets an 'all clear' from his tests on the 18th.

Sending healing light to your hubby, Drifter. I can't blame him for not wanting to see one more doctor. But (there's always a but on the end of something) if the doctor can do something to help him heal and make him feel better maybe one more "but" is worth the trip.
Good Thoughts and Positive Vibes being sent to him and you. I'll keep my fingers crossed for him too.

Filed my taxes on the 9th and got the refund today, 5 days later! That was quick! e-filed our on the 12th. Can only hope for that quick of a turnaround. When we were working, always wanted to pay in. Didn't see any sense in having the government us our money during they year... not making us a dime. One year, the State even penalized us because we owed them more than we were supposed to. When we retired, things changed. Went the other way. Now, try to have it as even as possible, always getting a refund. That way there are no big "surprises".

The "stable genius" is at it again... trump mused to donors that we should take our F-22 planes, "put the Chinese flag on them and bomb the sh*t out" out of Russia. "And then we say, China did it, we didn't do it, China did it, and then they start fighting with each other and we sit back and watch." Idiot! And his followers most likely think this is a great idea.

Why does the media keep on reporting the stupid, idiotic things this fool spews? To keep his silly base happy? To keep his name in the news?
He did say he loves the ignorant. He's a lucky guy because they love him too.
Oh no! Now I have that song, "What a fool believes" stuck in my head. I think that's the name of it.
A wise man has the power to reason away.

Yes! We are doing the happy dance today! Hubby had his follow up this morning, to get the results from his CT and MRI scans. Everything came back clean. NO cancer!!! Even the lab work was great. We were ecstatic about this news! We are just so happy that our GP caught this cancer in the early stage, where it didn't metastasize. Doc will be scheduling him in April to have his chemo port removed from his chest. He doesn't have to have another CT scan for 6 months, and the MRI once per year.
