Good morning, y'all. 52° and very windy with rain. This occurs frequently in Jersey. The cloud never really leaves us for more than a few hours
. Leaves and branches are in free fall.
Ah, Timonium. Missing another this time. Just can't picture driving three hours to spend 90 minutes walking around, then three hours driving home.
Especially with the crosswinds on the bridges. Maybe in February, if it doesn't snow.
Brand name medication is a problem. The co-pays for my plan are going up considerably next year, as is the premium, but the plan, (Teamsters), does allow for medications that other plans won't cover. I regularly use one Brand Name for which there is no generic, and two low cost generics. My wife currently takes all generics, although one of those is quite pricey. Her major medication is administered by infusion, and paid directly by Medicare.
One other thing to keep in mind, the insurance carriers also lie. The reason that she is getting infusion, is that the Plan administrator told her .the brand name medication was $1K per dose when the formulary clearly states a co pay of $70 for a month's supply. The whole medical / drug thing is disgraceful. Can't trust any of the players.
Speaking of ways to part you from your money, the New Jersey Devils are installing a betting parlor inside the Prudential Center Arena, in Newark.
It will be open during all hockey games, Seaton Hall basketball games, and concerts. Gentlemen place your wagers. There's also one going in at the Meadowlands and one is open at Monmouth Park.
I normally don't disclose birthdays, but tomorrow, I turn 70. I guess that's an accomplishment.
Have a great weekend.
