one more day

January 19th, 2007 at 02:54 am

If I can make it through Friday I will have gone all this "work" week with out spending money on lunch. Wow. I haven't done that in a long time. Now i just need to remember to take the left over Chinese food in the frig with me to work so it doesn't go to waste.
I think I will put a note on the door to remind me.

Be right Back..........



Ok I'm back and note is hanging on door at eye level.

I did take the kids to "old McDonald's for supper. I was running and doing errands and I also had a friends baby with us. So I spent $13. for one adult and 3 kids.

I also made some payments on medical bills. $45. to podiatrist, and $50. to the dentist. Should be able to have those two paid off next month.

I need to contact the hospital where I took DS to the emergency room Christmas night for a sinus infection. He is on the medical card, but for some reason they did not bill the card, but sent me the total bill. The visit which included the ER, exrays and the ER physician was almost over $700.00. What do people do who do not have any insurance do? That is outragious.

Got my Visa bill in the mail today. AAKKK. It just seems to keep increasing. I didn't realize how much I used it at Christmas. I have got to get a handle on this. I need to look for a 0% balance transfer card and apply for it. This card is the last big ticket item. $5,800.

I know what I need to do to get on top of my finances, but have a hard time finding the motivation and drive to do it. I just want to bury my head in the sand and hope that when I come up for air it will have all gone away. I know... dream on sister.

    Well, it's not much better for some of us WITH insurance. We have to pay $550 a month for our health insurance. Then, we still have our deductible and our 20% on top of that! Whatcha gonna do???

    Most health insurance companies charge an extra premium for ER service, and i guess they want you to make scheduled appointments. Mine charges $100 for the ER co-pay. They also charge extra for those walk-in clinics where no appt. is needed. So i avoid those unless of course i'm dying.
