Thursday this and that

I got my Christmas cards done and they are now ready to be taken out to the mailbox. I still have Christmas stamps left over from last year, as I didn't use them all. I definitely have to bundle up and wear a hat walking down to the mailbox these days. I don't think it ever got above freezing yesterday.

DD was telling me last night she is thinking of getting another tattoo. She has 2. One she got when she went to college, on her back shoulder, representing family. Then she got one a few years later on her ankle for her great grandmother -who she got to have in her life for 17 years. Now she is thinking of getting another one for her grandma that would include her grandma's handwriting from an old birthday card she kept. Very sweet. 

Hopefully dh hears some MRI results today. I'm guessing this is still going to be something pancreas related. I guess I should be glad we're not in Canada trying to get appointments. My sis said her dr referred her to a spine specialist almost 2 months ago. She just got a call from the spine dr office - they said it would be a 12-15 MONTHS wait to get an appointment. And she waited to months for them to call and tell her that. She told them what's the point? LOL. Sure....tell me again how great socialized medicine is? Plus, the stuff she has told me about her step dad's care is terrible.

Today feels like Tuesday, LOL. I'm going to be so happy when I wake up tomorrow and it's already Friday haha.  

I'm about to lose it on dh. He wants to buy me a Christmas present, but it's on Amazon, so of course he doesn't want to use my account, as then I'll see it on there. I said then either set up your own Amazon account or send the link to dd and have her order it for you on her account. He decided to set up his own account, but apparently years ago he had already done that with his email address. I had him choose forgot password (because of course he never writes down and saves passwords) and it sent a code to his email, but after entering that it wanted to verify it was him by entering the expiration date of the cc on file with the account. Well, no can do on that of course- as the account was last used years ago. Who knows what the expiration date is/was? I called customer service and the only option is for him to set up using a different email address  - which I had already suggested to him to just do that.

He didn't want to use another email address - says this is the only email he has/uses. I said well, WHY in the hell did I have to go through all that hassle a year or so ago setting you up with a new email through our internet carrier? that he just had to have?? Then he doesn't use it?

Finally he got a new account set up, got his payment method added (with my help) and then when he went to order whatever it is he wanted to order he hollers upstairs - it says free prime shipping, do I chose that? No - you have to pay extra/month for the prime account. If your item is free shipping there should be an option in the shipping choices that is free. Well, without me looking at the screen, apparently there was no free shipping unless you had prime. "Why can't I just sign up for this free 30 day trial?" I said you can BUT you damn well better remember to cancel it before the month is up or you will be charged for it. Of course he's not going to remember. I just put a reminder on my outlook calendar to remind him to cancel it.  Some days he can be so exhausting.
