Good News Bad News
Theres always a silver lining...
Bad News: I found out through the grapevine my roomate is planning on moving out! He has yet to tell me, though. Probably because I was nice enough to put him on a payment plan throughout the month because hes stretched too thin.
Good News: I have an Emergency Fund I set up for instances like this called the bad roomate fund. Also, with an empty room, my boyfriend of 3 years and I are planning on moving him in together.
Whats your Good News / Bad News?

Re: Good News Bad News
Good news: A sample sent for on two different occasions, months apart, made a surprising difference to my very mild arthritis both times.
Bad news: The price on the product (Move Free Advanced) is higher than for other glucosamine & chondroitin products. I think it is the additional ingredients that are making the big difference. I priced them separately and they are high that way, too....But whatever: I'm buying it. Costco has the best price so far. Beats Walgreen's 2fer sale, for example.
Big, big congratualations to usnavy_233 and his family. His good news is the best!  |

Re: Good News Bad News
Bad news: I need to get a crown on a tooth
Good news: DH and I both have health, dental & vision ins. through our jobs so we're double insured. They gave me a treatment plan and my total out of pocket cost *should* be $70 tops. I say *should* because the last time she said that, she blew it and it cost us $800 out of pocket. I do have an EF so no worries either way. Plus I set the appointment six weeks out and I get 3 paychecks in March so I'll have that much more money
More bad news: I'm a big chicken when it comes to medical/dental stuff.

Re: Good News Bad News
Good news: CVS has given me many extrabucks I don't really expect.
Bad news: I can't figure out how, why or when, which makes playing the game a little harder.
