Day 2978

 I woke up about 8, played games for a while, and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  It was fairly warm today, low 60's, that's good.  It was also raining, that's bad.

I spent a little time this morning looking into whether or not Tony could get money from the government.  He didn't work long enough to get Social Security.  He can't get SSI because of his income., and he can't get food stamps because his income is just barely over the cutoff.  Oh well.  He may however qualify for disability.

I called Perazzi and left a message.  Of course the guy didn't call back.

Ellen brought back mail from Medicaid.  It was a notice that they had cancelled the rehab and would cancel the application if he didn't "appeal" by 2/11.

Yo called to bitch to me about Tony.  I tried to comfort him a little, but the root cause is Tony is crazy and that isn't going to change.  I told him about the cancellation and texted him the cancellation letter.  I told him to give it to Tony so that Tony could take it to his doctor's appointment tomorrow.  The doctor may be able to help get him reinstated.  I also set up a time Thursday where we might be able to get Tony on Medicare.

Later on I called Tony and brought him up to speed.  He was halfway sane after I let him rant about how great his self rehab was going.  I told him about the cancellation and the Medicare attempt on Thursday.

By then it was late in the afternoon.  I'd been filling in the down time today working out the last details of costs for the Traxxas, FMS, and Axial RC cars.  The Traxxas and FMS cars are 1/18.  They both have plusses and minuses.  It's hard to make a choice.  The FMS is a few dollars more expensive.  The Axial is a 1/10 car and is the most expensive by a noticeable margin.  I'm putting it on the back burner. 

The case for the new dog collar came this afternoon.  I spent some time constructing the foam inserts.  Everything fits, but just barely.  I think that it's going to work great.

Ellen fixed tacos for dinner.  After dinner I switched to videos for the rest of the evening.  While I was watching the trainer texted.  We'll do the next Abby session on Saturday.
