And we just passed an amendment giving water decisions to a water board appointed by the governor. Because of course.
WITH WHAT WATER? AND ON WHAT POWER GRID??

So on top of everything, my property taxes have increased exponentially. My home insurance jumped by almost $5000/year.
I’ve a VERY finite amount of $$$ after mortgage, utilities, and dog food are paid for.
Happy to pay school taxes, but the increase of 26 cents on the dollar is killing me. (1/)

Okay, guys.
Let’s move on from the bruise. There is plenty of other stuff with which to run that man over the coals, but it likely is nothing.
If an IV, it could have been a hydration thing.
If not, he could have hit his hand on a door jamb going through said door. Like me. (1/)

Being an xennial/elder millennial is weird. I am on the cusp of body shame and body positivity.
I felt my ribs in my chest and saw my clavicles today and I was excited. And then I felt guilty about being excited.
Please do not project this on yourself. I’m just damaged. 😂😫

Companies are really quick to take our money when we owe them. They don’t hesitate to cut off services or blow up our phone.
But when they owe us or when we rely on what they owe us? Crickets.

1. 15% live, so overall high-quality CPR is worth the risk.
2. Families do need to recognize the side effects and have conversations because your 85-year-old Meemaw will suffer. Consider the pros and cons of a DNR. The sound and feeling of cracked ribs are terrible.
3. PLEASE get CPR certified.

Although CPR has become synonymous with medical heroism, nearly 85 per cent of those who receive it in a hospital die. Why has it remained the norm?
The Hidden Harms of CPR
The brutal procedure can save lives, but only in particular cases. Why has it become a default treatment?
