Unless my math ability fails me Brother Alan is 48 years young today! Happy Birthday Alan! I just received an email that instead of coming home from work this morning he is forced to work over because a co-worker decided to take the day off. Corporate America today —— hire too few and overwork them! Here’s hoping you get to enjoy some part of your birthday today Alan!
Tracey has to work today as well. Although it isn’t her birthday it is still crumby. She has 8 weeks of accrued vacation time and I doubt she will ever get to use any of it because she has to cover for employees that are absent too.
Currently she has a nurse on medical and won’t be back until July —— so that means we don’t get to use any time this Spring while the weather is nice but will have to wait until July or August when the heat is oppressive.
Always works out that way. We have several outdoor projects that need finished and will have to do them on weekends, etc. because she can’t use her vacation time.
Good Morning Tammy —— I didn’t get to your last comment from yesterday until this morning. I could type all day long about the insanity of hospitals, doctors, insurance companies and their billing practices. I am sure they complicate the entire mess on purpose so they can squeeze the last penny out of those who don’t pay attention.
I have mentioned more than once to various office secretaries, etc —— It sure is funny that NONE of those billing “mistakes” is EVER in my favor. Imagine that. The law of averages doesn’t apply to medical insurance cost mistakes. If a mistake is made you will always be overbilled. Guess that means it wasn’t a mistake?

Oh my gosh ... Alan ... with hair! Sorry Alan, but great picture!
A little bird told me last night that Alan was having a b-day today ...
Happy Birthday Alan.....and many, many more!
Hey, do you test your blood sugars? If so, where, how, etc. do you buy your test strips? That’s what this is all about!

Sorry Alan, if I had known Tammy would be so RUDE! —— I would not have posted that picture. I just thought a picture of you on your birthday was appropriate —— but NOoo —— Tammy had to spoil it!
Tammy, I get my supplies at Pekin Prescription Lab. They just have me sign a receipt and they bill to insurance. After a couple months, they bill me for what Cat doesn’t pay after deductibles, etc. So far they have been very good, but I have only been doing it about a year. I get all my prescriptions mail-order through Wal-mart and 3 months at a time as Cat gives me some discount on my co-pay that way. I’m still surprised K-mart is not a part of your network since they are all over the country.
