You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me. C.S. Lewis

All you need is love...........
Happy Valentine's Day to all of you! We did not do much ~ Romeo asked if I wanted to go out to a restaurant ~ my reply ~ Are you crazy? It's Valentine's Day and a Friday....... So it was a quiet evening at home. Really, the best kind.
I had taken Tuesday and Wednesday off, mostly because there was an event at the church and partly because I needed a break (ha ha, no pun intended). What is it about having a week or two of vacation, and when you get back to work you wish the vacay had been just a few more days! It's just never long enough, right? And although I hear the call of retirement, I really must pay off my car first before I can consider that. I plan to make some extra payments to hurry that along.
I received a statement from the orthopedist office for my first visit. I could not believe that they charged $1200 for "treatment of a proximal humerus fracture" ~ they didn't do anything. They didn't even take x-rays. I didn't have to pay that, thankfully. My copay was $50. Still, it is very shocking. My co-worker said if I hadn't had insurance they probably wouldn't have charged me that much, but I disagree. This past week they took x-rays to check on healing, and he had me do some movements while he palpated the shoulder to check on mobility. I shudder to see how much that bill will be. Once again I am so thankful that all of this happened after I had insurance coverage, which I didn't have just a few days before. :-0
But life is good, I have work, and my supportive and loving guy, and Sioux is keeping me company while I sit here and type with the sun streaming in the window.
Have a great weekend.....Love, 365

ReplyDelete$$$. Having insurance is a necessity these days.
ReplyDeleteMy husband fixed us lobster (Yes!) on Thurs. nite. We watched Mentalist on Amazon Prime and then some Longmire. A good time.
We did nothing on Valentine's Day and it was glorious. I hear ya' about insurance. It's insane how much stuff costs these days. I am extremely grateful that me and the family have great coverage. Take care and hope the healing continues to be quick.
