It's been a rough few days the last few days. This week did not get off to a good start at all.
I was eating a Boca Burger with Bac-Os on it whilst talking on the phone and one of the Bac-Os got between my front teeth and broke one of the porcelain veneers that I have on my front teeth. Two trips to the dentist later and I've got a temp in my mouth for two weeks plus needing two more trips to the dentist before getting my new permanent porcelain veneer and a $1200 dentist bill. Bac-Os are officially off my list of things that I will eat now.
Then while I'm sitting in the dentist chair I'm noticing that I'm feeling a bit of discomfort down below so I call my doctor who has me come in and it turns out that I have a UTI so now I'm on really expensive antibiotics again for the next seven days that my insurance company doesn't cover.
So since I already had to dig into my savings to pay unexpected medical bills we decided to throw caution to the wind and take the money we had planned on using to take a vacation and do something else even more expensive although much longer lasting.
First we were going to DC for my birthday but then we changed to going to Boston when we found out that our friend in DC only had a studio apartment but then we decided to go to the Keys and avoid the hassles of flying but now we have decided to buy a couple of kayaks along with a trailer to haul them instead.
This weekend we are going to shop some more but right now it is looking like we are going to get two Scupper Pros although the Scupper Pro is actually out of production so we may get the RTM Tempo which is made from the same mold.
Today I found a good deal on the Yakima Rack and Roll trailer that was a floor model so bought it and it was delivered this afternoon. Now we need to get a hitch put on our Scion TC so that we can actually pull this trailer.
After I bought the kayak trailer the kayak shop offered to bring an assortment of kayaks to the park up the street from us so we are going to try to meet up with them late tomorrow afternoon if Christy can get away from work.
Both of us are really looking forward to finally being able to kayak without the hassles of renting kayaks or often getting stuck using kayaks that aren't decent to paddle. There is often an evening paddle up the street from us along with other paddles with a group that we meet through Meetup that we haven't been able to participate in most of the time due to us not owning our own kayaks.
Christy got me into kayaking and I got Christy into snorkeling. Kayaking and snorkeling seems like the perfect blend of two sports.
Maybe the weekend of my birthday we can finally go kayaking and snorkeling in Biscayne National Park for a day.
