the hot tub is for me. the back story is: my rheumatologist in NY said my insurance would pay for a hot tub for my RA, only the insurance company didn't cover portable units. when you rent it's difficult to have landlord approve a permanent hot tub inside. what the hell, I have a few extra bucks, my RA is still kicking my ass, and I'm sure a lady or two would like to join me once in awhile.
