Storage building

Man I don't wish vertigo on my worst enemas. Bleh.

Took longer to tie it down than the trip there & back.

Butchered together LED Strip lighting dealio. Works fantastic. Best way can describe it is, feels/looks like moonlight glow. Pictures make it look like an operating room but it's actually quite dim and yet bright enough can easily see keyboard in my lap.

At some point will block off the ends. Maybe. Last picture is fairly accurate display of light level. Quite satisfied with the 50 bucks spent.

Looks good. Really uptown lighting system for fifty bucks.

Vertigo and an enema sounds like a heck of an evening.

And yes...I need to get rid of the old TV stand as it's quite the catch-all/trash dump. Once weather fully breaks, maybe I'll get more done. Need to go to doctor and see if anything can be done about the vertigo. It's fairly consistent now. Pretty much know what movement makes me more dizzy than my usual state.

Kinda unrelated, but for sturdiness and a decent looking desk, I bought a Husky 62in work table and am using it in a walk-in closet for my son as a desk. The thing is bomb proof and adjustable. I picked it up for around $250.

So……….is this a storage building?

Ran into guy I worked with 20 ish years ago while at Hardee's. I mentioned need to get rid of my tools. He said, i'll take them. Just built shop at home and tired of carrying tools back & forth. Cash money tomorrow morning. Gonna deliver it to him. Maybe 5 miles away. Be sooooo happy to see it all go. Selling waaaaay too cheap but want it all GONE!

 

[KTMLew01]

Tools all gone! Building is 2/3 empty. Can't take a picture as sun is shining directly in the doors. Can't see anything. I'm gonna either buy another small version of what I had or maybe just get a kitchen cabinet & ReStore and put a top on it. But no rush.

Something like this. Put casters on it and a top of some sort.

It be fairly hollow!

You'll be surprised how few tools you need at this stage of life. Now you have room to add more junk that, in five years, will cause you to wonder what to do with it all.

Had dilated eye exam Jan 30th. Knew my Cataracts were ripe. They supposedly referred results to surgeon. Been waiting. Never heard a word about future appointment. Called my eye doc. WTF is going on? Shrug. We'll check. Don't hear anything. Go to office. What is happening folks? Shrug. We didn't hear back from surgeon. Here's a post-it-note with Surgeons name & number. Maybe you can call?

Ok.

Call and receptionist had zero interest in answering ANY questions. Lots of WAIT WAIT WAIT when I tried to explain why I called. Had to give her my name 3 times. Just seemed kinda pissed i'd called. I eventually got to explain, had exam at another office. Was referred to your office. More confusion. They went all Sargent Schultz on me.

Said I will have to schedule an appointment for a dilated eye exam. Again. Tried to ask about referral...doesn't matter/count. Have to start all over again. Now have appointment for JUNE 7th! It's gonna be 2024 before they do anything at this rate. Actually, gonna do some poking around and try to find a different place to deal with.

I'm about pissed off.

And I'm kinda wondering about the whole payment/billing deal of this whole thing. Eye doc billed Medicare $340 & charged me 45 bucks out-of-pocket for the drugs for dilation. So...now have to do it again. Or will the next exam be rolled into the surgery cost? IDK!

Dry between your toes folks!

 

[KTMLew01]

Tried to call Duke to schedule an appointment. After listening to the usual 3 minutes of options, since they've recently changed, press zero to speak to a person...

Hung up 18 minutes later. Personality flaw. I have no patience.

I'll try again next week. Man I hate our healthcare system.

 

[KTMLew01]

Talked to somebody that's been thru this whole deal. She claimed probably won't get billed again for the next exam. It should be rolled into the surgery billing. Gonna do some kicking of some tires Monday and see if can use a different doctor. Still don't understand how it got referred but that doesn't create an appointment or at least make the office personal reach out to you. Receptionist not only didn't seem know about the referral, even worse, gave the impression didn't care.

She's off my Christmas card list!

Blew the doors off so could get it inside by myself. 30 bucks from Restore. Storage space!. It has to weigh 150 lbs with the doors and everything installed. Going to put casters on so easier to move around.

 

[KTMLew01]

Have casters coming from Amazon. 12 bucks. Didn't do a thing to it this afternoon. Need to do some cleaning of inside with furniture polish. Trying to figure out the staging of everything. Don't want it to block too much of the window AC I still have to put back in.

 

[KTMLew01]

Stuffed AC in the window. Not exactly way I wanted but it blows! Plan to acquire a file cabinet to put in one of the holes in the entertainment center. Since gonna start going to doctors, need to keep track of info better.
