Tonight was our annual (some of the college buddies) Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year party. This year Justin and I were able to host it at our house. Tabitha came and brought her new puppy that is 7 weeks old too. It’s part golden retriever, pit bull, and lab. It’s black with white on her paws and her name is Dakota. Dakota and Java were both the runts of their litter. At first they didn’t get along too well but after awhile they were sniffing each other’s rears and having a good time. They even slept next to each other. Lunsford was going to come but she was unable to make it. (Lunsford stop breaking bones! hehe). We all contributed to bring “pick up” foods and watched “Gone in 60 Seconds” and a little TLC and chatted. It was good to catch up on everyone’s crazy lives. Jessica and Mark got a 97 Expedition. The coolest thing is they have a starter on their keychain to start the car without even being in it. Boy I wish I had one of those for in the cold weather. The car would be nice and toasty before I even got outside.
Poor Java is tuckered out. She’s been sleeping for like 2.5 hours now. I bet we will be in for a fun night of whimpering and whining and scratching to play. She and Justin are asleep on the loveseat as I type this.
I better get to sleep and try to get as much rest as I can while I can. Monday starts my 2 weeks of working 8:30-8 at the Bookstore for rush. Wish me luck! Stop by to see me too. Bring supper 😉
In unrelated news…I went to the chiropractor the other day. Wayne had given me a card to get a free first visit and xrays. He told me he loves it and that it’s almost free with GWU insurance. Unfortunately I went without doing any research. Apparently it’s not a Chiropractor on our plan. I went back for a follow up visit the next day to see my xrays. That’s when they told me I would have to pay a $300 deductible. Somehow they calculated that if I paid it that day I would only owe $410 (this I do not understand how a $300 deductible turns into $410 but I’m not the brightest I guess). When I came in the door I asked if I would have to pay since it was an overlap of the first visit and they lady told me “just a small fee”. That small fee turned out to be $82! I was not happy. I don’t know why Wayne didn’t think to mention any of that to me. He has the same insurance. Then these people wanted to see me everyday next week and then for the following 2 weeks, 3 times each. That is way too much money. I would love to be able to go. They did adjust my back which felt sooo good. I really needed it! I found out I had a sublexation of one my vertebrae in my neck and in my lower back (which I could feel definitely). I’m afraid my back is going back to the way it was before he did anything to it. Someday I’ll have to go to one in my insurance plan but for now it’s too expensive. I ended up cancelling all my appointments with this company. I’m sure they will be calling and bugging me next week.
Ok I’m off to bed before Java gets up. Night all!
