Will that be enough to do the windows as well as the doors?

I chose the high deductible plan, because it is only $4.00 per month. They are also giving us $200 to start off our HSA this year, and my deductible is $1300 with a $200 out of pocket maximum if you use one of our physicians (which I already do)

Yeah, I'm a reasonably healthy person, so I'm not THAT worried. I just really resent having the choice taken away. And I feel bad for people on pricey prescriptions. The first couple/few months until they meet the deductible are gonna SUCK.

Oh, yeah, I think we did get a contribution to the HSA from the employer, too. Man, that was probably a decade ago? Details are hazy. I know I crunched the numbers for possible outcomes before we decided to go that route, and when there were lifestyle changes a couple years later it was no longer the optimal choice.

Emily who is now a critic at The New Yorker was a buffista, right? I am listening to old Ask Me Another podcasts, and she is the celebrity guest, and answering Buffy trivia!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
She totally was.
My job has the craziest number of health plan choices! Which I guess is good, but it's very confusing.
Wait, you're closed but you have to work anyway? That bites.
The good news is, I'm pretty sure I can get Tuesday off. The bad news is, a crapton of work to do this weekend. Good times.

Any Boston/NH-istas and Chicago-istas in need of a good job, let me know. IT is hiring (Theodosia?), and there a number of admin/ops positions available.
Cool. Insent!

Ours switched over to HDHP a couple years ago. With the HSA, it works out ok for me, when I remember to do the receipts (for dental stuff mostly.The damned debit card never worked as advertised.) The HSA was poorly linked to the insurance, but that looks to be changing this year, though it means hoops to roll over from the old HSA to the new. But I do have the cash on hand to meet the deductibles if necessary.
They just this year switched to a ACA marketplace style set of options this year. About 4-6 different carrier options under each level (gold, silver, bronze) some nonHDHP available. Company contributes a flat amount per employee. It's costing me about $180 more a year, but the cheaper option would have been really inconvenient because it has such a small footprint here still. I think the coverage is a little better though. Deductible is lower, for sure.
