Quote of the Day:
“I was still under a depressed state when I began to write with considerable gusto, and then it came back to me again, this thing that had dogged me all those years. . . a nemesis or something that haunts you. . . It’s a kind of counterdrive not to write.”
– Henry Roth

and I feel depressed and not wanting to write. I don’t write because I don’t want to bore you all with my troubles. Then I feel that if I share some of my journey with you I will touch one of my readers who might be going through the same thing. I know more than one person has written in thanks for sharing my story.
I dealt with Medicare this morning. I received a notice from them that they were denying claim until after I had presented the bill to my primary insurance carrier. Duh! Back in October I was still covered by my employer’s healthcare plan. That was discontinued the end of October. Medicare was in force October 1 but I used my employer’s insurance until November 1 when the employer’s healthcare plane was discontinued. Then I used Medicare.
The first woman I spoke with was very delightful and easy to talk with. She did what she could but she couldn’t make the changes to my account. She suggested I call this other number, which she gave me, and said they would be able to assist me there.
The second lady was able to change my account but when I attempted to talk about non-bill I received, the niceness stopped. She went into hyper-drive and talked to me as though I was bothering her. I ended up not liking her very much.
What I felt like was a mouse in a maze. Okay, I’ve done all I can do here, now call this number, then call this number and they should help you.
Now I need to talk to my doctor about what has transpired.
It’s a lazy day around here. I did clean up the kitchen and wiped down the counters. The fur kids had been chasing each other around here like hell bent for election. At the moment, all is quiet. Everyone is napping. I napped earlier in the day so I’m ready to be a little busier. I guess this is why I am writing right now.
I haven’t seen the weather report today so I don’t know if rain is in order. It could be just a gray and dreary day.
