From spending the better part of the day in ER on Boxing Day, I have an urology appt tomorrow sometime-they haven't called, so I'll see if I can set up a phone appt instead of driving for 2 hrs, going near the hospital again.

Heck why do I have to see a specialist anyways?
I have little "Rocky" in a container already.
Not on any meds (took 1 pill only) so I really see it's just a waisted trip for a follow up.
I can say how I feel just as well over the phone as in an office.
Yup Doc. it feels like I took a few kidney shots from Mike Tyson, promise to use the belt the next time I get in the ring.
Drinking lots of fluids, and willing to take a few shots of cranberry juice to speed up the process.

Hey, at least your stone passed and you're feeling better Jim. :thumbsup:
There's nothing worse then needing help and not being able to get it.

All I can say is our OHIP system sucks, I vote for a privatized healthcare option here in Ontario. :laughing7:

I would love to be off the grid. I'm tired of being ripped off by my electric co. They charge more for fees, fines, & other bull snit, than for actual electric use.

Oh here in Ontario they went and paid for the greener solution. Started off paying solar/wind generation up to 80 cent a KW and while collecting a pittance from the customer.

Well we had the debt charge, line loss charge, delivery charge, low.med.high demand rates, then the taxes on top. Then in the rural the delivery can go way up just because, and then there's a seasonal rate.
The Gov't sold off a nice chunk of the Hydro One to private-time will tell what will happen in the future.
 

Good morning Bart, Bill, Pepper.
 

Pepper, i can tell you what will happen, prices will rise. They never go down unless they are trying to hook you on something, and then its temporary. It always goes up.
We have the same items listed almost word for word on the bill.
 

Well, my daughter just came downstairs, she said "that she can't sleep".
This is highly unusual for her, because she usually doesn't get up before 1pm. :laughing7:

She wants to come with me for a walk with the dog and then go for a drive to Tim Horton's to get a sausage Farmer's Wrap for breakfast.

Have a great day everyone! :wave:

Dave we all whine and complain about the system-but just remember if you don't have - you start coughing up the $$$. Yes, we pay dearly through taxation and extra fees.
It's not perfect in many ways and we have that big white elephant in the room called E-Health.
But I will always be grateful if I need an operation and medical care that could cost 100's of thousands-free. You can have it and that can't take the roof away if you're in financial hardship.
Yes there's who you know-to get the first in line treatment-but it's better then some healthcare plans in other countries.

Though it's scary when the specialists say well we believe that this drug therapy will save you from slipping any further away Jim. Ok-what does it cost?
Oh this one is $60K a year for this plan
This other Dr. said his drug therapy plan was $90K a yr.

Ok I guess I die.............Oh I can get funding through the medical research foundation and Trillium foundation for you-So I can be a lab rat in other words.
Oh the options are there if one wants them-often they're kind of scary.

It seems like there is a general list of what to charge for rates.
We try to do most things in the 7pm-7am low rate plan-laundry, but it's hard to cook pre/post of those hrs.
Right now the hydro is running around $300 a month, but we have the heat lamps on in the barn for the pullets, and 5 freezers, 2 large fridges, and 1 small.
Heater in the garage to keep stuff from freezing.
So we use-we pay what can one do?
 

Morning WD
Hows you feeling this morning?
 

Good morning, pirates and piratess’sssssss.

I have slept a lot, still congested and will skip the gross details about it. I guess I have to find a place to get tested just because this stupid virus afflicts every one different.

Any way, feels like an annoying cold.
