Wow, that's great, Theo. I'm assuming she has the right kind of coverage for all of this!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

She was employed by MIT for 25 years, so she's covered under a very generous plan, thank goodness. She still gets her primary care at the MIT Health Center.

Our wings are not tired.
That makes such a difference, Theo. Good to hear she is recovering well.
I put up some pictures of the new doggo on FB. [link] He is doing great.

Between my company insurance and Medicare, Hubby was 147% covered, which was a hell of a relief when the medical bills passed the $500,000 mark and kept going.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Aw, Skinner's a cutie, Laura! I hope Mulder and Scully don't give him too much trouble.
Update: I have found no additional motivation to work in the last 4.5 hours. I have stuff that needs doing I am just so very disinclined to do any of it. Alas.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Tim's new (is 5 months still "new"?) company has really good insurance. I'm impressed. The office visit copays are a bit more than the copays on the insurance from his old company, but the Rx benefits are amazing. I picked up 2 prescriptions Monday that would probably have cost a total of $40-ish under the old insurance -- with the new insurance, they were a total of $7. Woot, new health insurance.

Meanwhile, they did a version of the opening credits of GoT using Oreos ... now I want a cookie.

Yay health insurance that works!!
I finally got up the gumption to contact a couple places about getting stuff done and it just made more things to do. I have to get my medical records sent to this other doctor and they'll review them before they even agree if they'll see me. Which means printing and signing and faxing a form and following up on that and sending it and following up on THAT, and then if they don't see me finding a new place to start this all over again....I also finally called a roofing place my friend recommended and they don't do townhouses. Too y'all/steep of a roof. But that's what like two other places I contacted said too. Which...someone freaking roofed this place and there are a shit ton of townhouses around here. Who is doing the work?!? (The roofing company my friend suggested was like "here's some roofing supply places you could call and ask about their contractors they work with, they might not know who does townhouses though" which sounds like a lot more work...ugh)
Ooh, but one other medical office did call me back and arrange an appointment. One down, two to go. Plus if I want any house stuff done while I don't have a roommate I need to get on that.
