Out of Touch...

What we all looked like in our
internet withdrawal state.  ;-)

We were without power Tuesday evening 
(-Thankful that was so short) and without internet until this morning, because of Tuesday's wild wind storm.  Hope to be back on track here soon!





I'm also busy spending much too much time communicating with our medical insurance company.  We were supposed to be within $49 of meeting our family's maximum
deductible, per the benefits status report printed and mailed to us on January 4th.  But on January 11th, they left approximately $350 in claims unpaid, marked "Applied to the deductible."  Does that make sense to anyone?!  Apparently it does to the insurance company...


And, by the way, I recommend against getting pneumonia.  Hospital charge for 3 hours in the ER and 1 night in the hospital with IV fluids and standard antibiotics... Oh, and some ibuprofen: $21,700.  
(Our part is approximately $3K.)  This does not count doctors' fees/charges, or the cost of the ambulance ride, which are bills still to come...  Yikes.  This is not helping my quest to get us out of debt and overspending...


In other news, Prince CuddleBunny's and Princess Eager's toes were to the ends of their respective sneakers, and grown out of their jeans.  Life goes on.  ;-)
