Current Mood: Accomplished

Today was an interesting mix of getting tied up in stuff that was time consuming and getting somethings done….weird.

For one, Torn had 2 appointments today, the dentist, who when they supposedly 1st contacted our insurance said that he was there last year and wouldn’t be covered. Which was strange since he hasn’t seen a dentist since Indiana……and then we called the insurance from home said that they don’t have him down for anything. Either way, they got him in after all that. We need to get him in for a cleaning and some minor work. Then a few hours later he had an appointment with the foot doctor for his pre-op.

It has been a pain trying to get all the info that we need so we know what to expect from our insurance. The good news is, if everyone and every facility is in our network then the costs aren’t that bad. The problem is making sure that everything is. The doctor is, where he is going to get is blood work is, and we believe the facility is according to the doctor’s office. The big question mark is the anesthesiologists. I did get a hold of someone who told me that we really don’t have a choice since each facility works with only one group. But that once they mark what insurance you have they try to keep everything in network (which they don’t do in Indiana & you get hit with surprises…..I know from personal experience). So I’ll make a few more calls Monday and see.

So next week, Torn needs to get blood work, the surgery is the 22nd and then he has 4 follow appointments set through the 1st week of April! That is a lot of co-pays…..but thankfully we have insurance, it will make it a little bit more bearable.

I did get laundry done, bills & checkbooks figured out, emails & messages responded to…………..even though I didn’t get to my receipts. I need to get those fully entered so I can start attacking our taxes since we just got all of our w-2s and stuff like that. Torn and I have been getting a lot discussed about our business future…..so that is something.

I did pick up and shipped off a book on Vista for Torn’s mom. We ordered her the pc from dell and of course, it has an operating system that we aren’t familiar with. Torn has the old compag pretty much packed up to send to my folks for the kids, but it is in a huge box and I’m going to need his help with it. I want us to try and get that out next week…..for one I’m tired of having it behind my desk. But we had so much to do today that I didn’t want to screw with it.

We did get a lot of shoots done for updates. They came out pretty good, so we are pleased. Those new lights we brought were a great investment. I did a solo one outside by the pool this morning. I just love the colors of the blue waters & green plants for back ground. But the noise in the neighborhood is a pain. To top it off, I have to be quiet….and you know me, that is hard to when getting off. Then after the doctor appointments we had fun in the house. We are going to a bed & breakfast next week and planning on having a ton of fun…………..grin…of course, we’ll take pictures and video.

I’m going to close this, since I think I’ve written a book tonight, but I actually had something to say………grin

But don’t forget to check out my new phone blogs…..yes, I know I babble….but at least you can hear me speak instead of screaming…….grin
