One rant before I go to bed. I am SO tired of pneumonia (sort of a pun I suppose). Anyway I spent 1 1/2 hours at the 24hr CVS because I had a Rx for Levaquin - which BCBS doesn't cover and it would have been $159+ out of pocket so they needed to talk to doc but they waited to call (of course I am waiting there mind you). So long and short BCBS requests Avelox vs. Levaquin. I had no internet so I couldn't even look up the clinical studies so I had to take their word for it and frankly I was ready to shell out whatever (just charge it) because I felt like crap and wanted to just GO HOME!

So now I have the Avelox and Advair. Fortunately I got the Advair via a sample - wonder whether BCBS would charge 100+ for that as well. It's just too expensive. I thank my lucky stars I have a PPO insurance as thousands are shelled out in premiums and I still pay a ridiculous amount out of pocket. $1000 in flexible spending account is nothing with allergy meds. patnol freakin eye drops cost $45 bucks for this teeny tiny bottle.. Yeah can we say use sparingly. I had to go through all of this crap to get Zyrtec covered previously once Claritin went over the counter as well (Claritin, Allegra etc etc before wow they'd cover it because nothing else was working).

Okay rant over. 'Night

Carla,

I have BCBS also and they have always paid for my Leviquin. Also, they pay for my advair at the percentage rate, but not at the $10 rate. Pneumonia and insurance companies do not mix!

To quote a famous pirate .... "Heave! Heave like you're being paid for it!"

Well, I hit the jackpot today with deals. I ran back out to WM to look at the womens, boys, and mens clothes that were marked down to $1 & $2 each before meeting at the school. Game Stop is next door so I went in & asked if they still had the POC medallion necklace. The manager said that they had some somewhere & found one for me. I saw one on ebay for 12 last night so when I saw that it was 15, I commented oh well. I was trying to save a bit more. He said that if I bought them all he would mark them down 50%. Turns out this morning all of their toys went 50%!!!!!!!! I got the same thing that is on Ebay for $25 for only $7.50!!!!

I also managed to find quite a few of the Disney tees including two of the POC tees at WM. I was so happy to find a Chip & Dale shirt. DD loves that one. LOL! DS & DH got some deals as well.

 

[Bella2000]

Confession time....I don't like candy corn either.

Phew...oh the fear of being ostracized on Halloween

 

[brack]

Brack, you are on a roll here! What's that 3 in a row!

Actually it was 4 in a row.

 

[lbgraves]

Here is DD in her Elizabeth Swan costume & necklace. When she put it on she looked at me quite seriously and said "Mommy, you need to take a picture and ask Jack Sparrow if I look OK for pirate night.

Here is a long shot.

Just so that I don't leave him out....I took DS's PR costume out of the garage & let him try it on tonight. This might be for thie Halloween.

[Bella2000]

I'm on the road the next three days so I need to go figure out what suits will fit me and are clean. You'd think I would have done all of that last week. Well I didn't. So have fun all. I won't be able to check my T/X during the symposium however I will be thinking of you all. I might get a quick read in the a.m. before I head out.

See ya!

I was surprised to see that there is now a vacine for pneumonia.

I have had it. It only works for certain kinds of pneumonia. I have had pneumonia every year since....

 

[ds2Mom]

Night all -- off to pick up the boys!

Our local Party, Party, Party store had some really cute "Princess" things for little girls. The Tinker Bell pony tail holders were......wait for it......in DIS lime green!

With little bells on them!

Sometimes I wish I had a little girl to dress.

Awwww...that sounds so darn cute! Do they have a web site?

Going to Starbucks. Can I get anyone something or even better .... how about a mini-meet?
