OH dear, it's Sunday, and I forgot to blog!

This past week has been great.

We got so much done around the house, and did many of the things we had hoped to do during the time off from work.

We did not get our guitars out, we did not have spiritual/meditation time, we did not get to ride our bikes (40 mph winds can fucking BITE ME.  The horrible wind is one of the things I hate most about Oklahoma), and we did not get to the art museum.

I really loved just being able to live my life for a week, and wish that tomorrow wasn't Monday.

Having to work 8-5 every day sucks the life out of... life!

Today, we met up with our friends who went to Japan recently, and then Eric came over to tell us about his Germany trip.

The issue of Christmas Eve has never been resolved.

It will need to be resolved if he is ever to join us again on that sacred night.

Anyway, we received some cool souvenirs, and I guess we can live life vicariously through others who get to travel.

The medical bills have still not been resolved (the assistance program card keeps getting declined, even though the assistance program assures us that the funds are there), and now a NEW bill came on Friday for over $700 for my scans.

I am, needless to say, freaking out about all of this.

Dave is going to check the insurance company's Explanation of Benefits regarding the scans.  We were SURE that my out of pocket had been met before that date of service on March 30th, between the $11K injections in Jan. , Feb. and Mar., and the chemo pill (for which I am also in an assistance program, so that I never see a bill for it) for Jan., Feb., and Mar., which also runs over $11K per month.

The new scan bill is coming from the clinic, not from the new overlords, which is also confusing. How can they bill me as two separate entities??

However, the clinic HAS billed me by mistake on more than one occasion, so we are hoping that it the case yet again.  Once Dave looks at the EOB, and maybe calls the insurance, I can call the clinic and ask WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK???

That bill arriving on Friday completely wiped out ALL of the relaxation I had achieved over the week off.

It more than sucked.

And now, here we are, at the end of our staycation, and tomorrow at 5:45am will come FAR too soon.

Okay, there's my blog post for the week. Have a good one!!
