Well, this year has started out very mixed.
The good:
* I went regular at my job, which seems to be doing okay, but the company is a little weird.
* The new job has real health insurance, not the joke that the agency had, and not the screwup that my job from 2021 die to me.
* My spouse is getting social security and medicare, being over 70. This means my health insurance is less.
The bad:
* My roommates car got stolen, from right in front of our house, probably because of an unlocked door.
* Our remaining washing machine died. Now, the previous owner bought two used washing machines and two driers. The water heater in the garage died a few years ago, and we have had a problem getting the demand heater installed. So now we don't even have cold water wash.
I do not want to get another used washer. I want something new, Energy Star, high efficiency with a warranty.
I'm over sixty, I just want shit that works.
Our household is still masking and applying full Covid precaution because one of the roomies is immune compromised. This is not negotiable.

We do full COVID-19 precautions as well since Dad is over 70. I have a lot more complicating factors that would make an infection hazardous. No one in the family has had the virus, and all of us are vaccinated to the gills. Our next jab will be for shingles. I'm almost due for my TDaP booster. The precautions work.
Our kitten jumps on my walker whenever I go for any walk in the house. He looks so proud when he's riding on the seat.
