    Also, get a hearing aid and prescription pain meds and write them off on your Schedule A.

    Suggestion if post is serious

    Specialty lamp stores sell old torch lamps that use 100/200/300 watt bulbs (the base is different from a standard bulb). I have one and it is great.

Can't hear Hubby at all unless he's facing me when he's talking. Can't eat onions or fried foods without suffering some real gastric distress. Can't fall asleep. Everything hurts. Tinnitus has set in and there's this weird tinkling sound in my ear. Bloodwork and all other medical tests show I'm in great health. This just sucks. Can't wait for the incontinence or whatever other inconvenient horror awaits. Happy effing Monday
    Just so you won't lose hope, remember... there's only 95 more days till April 15th.

    Getting old may be better than the alternative, but it's hard work!
