Well, the other problem with dial-up is that you have to use your phone line. I need to be online while I speak to clients on the phone.

And yeah, if I miss an episode of something I like, I know I can find it online somewhere. But I spend so much time in front of the computer, I like watching TV in the living room or my bedroom. Last night was so cozy lying in bed watching the movie, "Castaway."

As far as the inversion table, a former nurse suggested I find a cheap, flat door to rest up against a sofa or a bed to get the stretching effect you get from inversion therapy. I spoke to my neurosurgeon about the whole concept and while he agrees that stretching can't hurt, there's no way it's going to put a herniated disc back together. It's not just protruding. The disc material has busted out. That is the point of no return.

As for my scripts, there's nothing expensive that I'm on for a long period of time. Like Percocet...I need it when I need it, which is now.

If I do end up on something long-term, I'd look into mail order for sure!

My furnace...oy. It's probably older than me. It just needs to be replaced. I'm on the verge of being eligible for a forgivable loan for home repairs. I may just get some much needed stuff done around here that will make the house more energy efficient.
