Back to the Orthodontist

May 12, 2008 on 11:15 am | In Family Health | No Comments

My effort to get caught up on the computer and email, but real life can slow me down sometimes!

I spent this morning catching up on the real mail that arrived while I was away and the giant laundry pile that accrued while I was away. In the middle of that, my husband came home from the office in order to pack his suitcase and head to the airport for his trip to Toronto.

On top of trying to catch up, I have to get my daughter back to the orthodontist. Two small attachment, or ramps, that were built onto her top teeth have fallen off. They are designed to keep allow her top teeth to be pushed out in front of her bottom teeth so that the braces can do their job. Unfortunately, with me being gone most of last week, I couldn’t get her in to see the doctor until today. I’m getting ready to pick her up from school so we can have lunch and then we’ll go to her appointment.

I do have to say though, at least I don’t have to worry about who is paying the orthodontic bill. We have good dental insurance and it will pay about 1/4 of the total bill which is more than many dental plans will pay. I can remember a time when my husband had been laid off and I wasn’t working, we had no insurance. It was too expensive. Our daughter was so young and I was always worried that she might get sick or one of us would have an accident and need medical care. I wish I’d known about United American Insurance Company back then, but I didn’t.

So, while I’m working hard to catch up, at least I’m not feeling stressed about who’s paying the orthodontist!

Akismet Spam Protection

May 12, 2008 on 10:58 am | In Blogging | 2 Comments

It’s been almost 6 days since I was last able to check my blog.  I have been out of town and away from the internet.  I appreciate anyone who may have stopped by to check in and apologize for not being able to update my site.

I want to let anyone who may have left a comment know that I had almost 250 comments in my Akismet spam folder.  I realize that most, if not all of them, belong in the spam folder.  However, due to the large number, I did not take the time to go through them, rather, I simply deleted them.   If any of you did happen to leave me acomment and I deleted it, I apologize for that and hope you will leave me another.

I had a great time on my trip, but am glad to be back.  I am spending time attempting to get caught up.  This may take a couple of days!
