I’ll be back later. MrMittens has an appointment today. He isn’t eating very well so we decided to get him in for a checkup.

Have a Wonderful Day.

These pictures are beautiful, yorkie! I saw where Amy framed one for you and it looked good. I had thought of doing that but hated to downsize. Sometimes I make the pic just a tiny bit smaller and it reduces the bytes! You can’t hardly tell its smaller!

I really think he does have backbone. I heard a lot he said before he was named the winner and it just impressed me that he seemed not to be afraid of criticizing what he thought is wrong with everything!!

I did watch C-span back when they were talking Health Care and I heard quite a few Republicans talking about Seniors getting run over. You can’t do a thing with those Democrats, they had made up their mind they were gonna cram it through no matter what BUT.....”things, they are a’changin!”

I hope so, or we will have to resort to demonstrations out in front of the SS offices all across the USA with hand outs of the articles we've been reading. The average person doesn't know what is happening, believe me I talk to people while I shop the bargain racks at the Penny's or Sears or at the grocery store or Commissary, they just are NOT informed on this at all.

It DID happen to me, in October, when I was ‘nephew-sitting’ for Lindy’s brother. He snuck out into the garage behind me, and I didn’t know it. I came back into the house, and closed the door behind me. About a half hour later, when I couldn’t find him - I opened the garage, and it looked JUST like the graphic! Garbage and trash EVERYWHERE in the garage! I almost got sick - but, didn’t. (and he didn’t either.)

BTW, I never told his ‘parents’..... what purpose would that have accomplished? Besides, the garage needed a good hosing out! LOL!

It is a DOD thing, the pdf with the link from the economist blog has it. Even Scott Brown mentioned the Tricare situation.

TRI CARE FOR LIFE This from a google search:

This option would help reduce the costs of TFL, as well as costs for Medicare, by introducing minimum out-of pocket requirements for beneficiaries. Under this option, TFL would not cover any of the first $525 of an enrollee’s cost-sharing liabilities for calendar year 2011 and would limit coverage to 50 percent of the next $4,725 in Medicare cost sharing that the beneficiary incurred. (Because all further cost sharing would be covered by TFL, enrollees could not pay more than $2,888 in cost sharing in that year.)

The latest budget proposal from the Congressional Budget Office (see page 175) seems to be trying to save a relative few pennies at the expense of military veterans. TRICARE for Life (TFL) is a program that was created in 2002 that supplements Medicare for military retirees and their families. “Option 96” on page 175 of the Health Care version of the latest budget proposal would make a significant modification to TFL.

BTW, it is snowing up here (mixed with rain).

The radar can't really tell the difference. But, you are a lot higher than the highest point in Alabama so would expect snow. About 12 years ago, we were traveling East on I40 in March and had to stop in Needles and spend the night because of snow covering I40 about 30 miles north of you. Probably happens real often in January.

Thanks for the info., I’ll take a look.
