one. turkey. i am sooo sick of it....turkey thursday, then leftover turkey friday...another turkey dinner saturday, with leftover yesterday...getting married + extra thanksgiving dinners to go to = ruining my love of turkey. now the thought of turkey makes me want to barf.
two. black friday. was it great this year??? i wouldn't know because i had to work, like i have every black friday since i have had a job. so my black friday consisted working my butt off dispersing cash to the same old people that come to the bank every day because they won't get enough cash to last them the entire week. boo...oh yeah, i worked saturday too.
three.mood. can you tell that it is not great today?? friday i got a bill in from my fertility clinic for the shg i had done at the beginning of november. for 1300.00....i knew that ivf would be expensive..don't get me wrong..i know that...i understand that...but when i was prepared to pay 700 on this and get a bill in for 1300.00?!?!?!??!??!?! i cried all night friday night because that is just one more thing pushing us back from starting....you see, my lovely insurance doesn't cover ivf..it covers diagnosing infertility, but not treating it...this was supposed to be covered because it was used to diagnose whether or not my uterus could support a pregnancy or if there is anything going on in there to keep me from getting pregnant. the reason i said before i was expecting to pay 700, is because with my crappy insurance, i have a 3000.00 deductible. i pay the first 500 out of pocket, then my company gives me a debit card with 1000 to pay towards my deductible. so, this test would count towards my 3000 deductible, i have 600 left on that debit card, so i could use it and then pay the rest out of pocket...since my insurance denied this testing, i can't use the debit card...get my drift??? needless to say, i have been fighting with my insurance company all morning.....i have to find a way to raise more money...i have almost enough to pay for the procedure if we get our drugs for free, like we are hoping...but then there is money for these unexpected expenses..and money to make the 2 hour drive back and forth to memphis several times a week...any suggestions?
four.ahhhh my dream.... i really want this
it's only $499 at the good old walmart. but, it's just an expense we cant afford having to pay for ivf...we aren't doing christmas with each other this year...if we were, this is what i would ask for...maybe santa will realize that i have been so good this year and put it under my tree....but i doubt it, santa doesn't listen to me anymore.
