I have had an on again off again relationship with Facebook and I'm tired of it. It's divisive and unhelpful in my life. It's the only good way I have to connect with some people so I'm not going to delete my account, but I'm giving it a wide berth.
Olivia gave me a start of a yellow rose bush and I planted it in our yard. I fertilized the soil and watered it deeply. I'm going to give it as much attention as I can. I know I planted it too late but I'm hoping the crazy cold weather will offset that.
If it doesn't make it, I will try again because Olivia has thriving yellow roses and so do my parents. They came from my grandma and grandpa Dahl's yard and I want some too. I won't give up on this one.
I am also not giving up on fighting the good fight on hospital bills. I really like our insurance and I am grateful for it. There are bills that have slipped through their cracks though. I keep getting the same bill from the hospital from when Emma had her surgery in December. I call the insurance company and they agree with me that yes, the insurance should have covered it. They tell me they will resubmit the claim. Then the next month I get the exact same bill from the hospital and we start the process over again. Every month since January. It's been a lot of fun. But I'm not giving up.
Emma got a long overdue bill from the electric company on an account from her last apartment that she thought was all closed and taken care of. She freaked out and I promised her I'd help her get to the bottom of it. I told her that a lot of adulthood is the frustration of trying to figure out things like that. It helps when the hold music is good. I won't stop until we get it resolved.
My principles are not iron clad though. My principles faltered and I turned on the heat. In June.
