Release the kraken

This week has made me so angry and rage-filled with regards to our insurance company.  Hell hath no fury like a woman whose cycle just started in need of medical attention and unable to get answers from the insurance company.  I'm supposed to go see the fertility specialist as soon as possible for hormone level testing (again).  I waited 35 days for this moment and now that it's here, I still don't have answers from the insurance company and I'm about ready to release the kraken. How hard is it to give me the flippin' approval code so I can move on with my process?!  We know we were approved.  The question was that our specialist had recently started her own practice and had a new address -- it felt like talking to an 8-year-old when I called the other day.  I just want to move on.  I'm sick of being in this place of limbo.  If there's nothing that can be done, we'd like to explore other options like adoption or foster care but we're not ready to start that research yet.  We want to focus our energies on making a tiny human that's biologically equipped to deal with sarcasm and genetically inclined to be awesome.  ;)

Any advice on dealing with the insurance company?  How do I light a fire under their ass?  I'm a little sick of hearing, "We're only taking messages at this time."

Call.  Me.  Back.

xoxo

    Which insurance do you use? Each one is different, but I might be able to help.

It is not 1950; I do not vacuum in pearls.

Hi, it's me - I know it's been a while, but I've been deep inside that bubble I mentioned when everything first happened in November 2020 and I am starting to emerge having done some serious healing and navigating within the trauma of being a suicide survivor and a sole parent. This has nothing to do with that though. I'm dumping this thought here because I need it documented: You know how the conservative crowd tends to use "Well I don't have any children, why should I help pay for the schools?" and "People are just too lazy to work, I don't know why we need social services to help people pay for their child care and food?" I'm noticing those are the same voices I hear in restaurants complaining that there are no servers. No bartenders. No one available to change their oil or to do other trade work. And no one to watch their children.  The CEO of the company I work for posted a big response about how child care is the gatekeeper to folks...

Momma K

It's true.  I love my mom.  She's my best source of advice & wisdom, even though it took me roughly 20 years to figure that out.  I just wanted to take a quick second and thank her for all that she's done for me and especially for the things she didn't do for me.  =)  I wouldn't be the person I am today without her. Love you mom! We're pretty fabulous, no?

That time we sold our house.

Porch, Charlotte, and I are excited to share that we are moving!  If you follow us on Facebook, you know that we put our house up for sale on Thursday.  By Saturday afternoon, we had 3 offers on the table and we accepted!  I can't even begin to express our shock, our joy, our excitement, and our nervousness about the months ahead. We put an offer on a house closer to my new job as Charlie attends the center and being closer means that Porch can drop her off on my early shift (6am-3pm) and pick her up on my late shift (9:30-6:30pm) so Charlie isn't spending all of her waking hours in child care.  We're ridiculously excited, yet cautious. The new house has 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and is begging for a series of updates.  There are a number of projects that await us but we're so excited to call this new place home and to make it into something that's truly ours.  A home we can grow into.  A home we can share with our family over the years and create ...
