Tough Day

Today was one of those days that I don't want to experience again. Suffice to say, a lot of tears, lost hopes and frustration were not what I wanted at this time of year. Going through this in the run-up to Christmas when I still haven't finished grading makes things even worse. If I had received my A.P.C. quilt today, I would have wrapped myself up in it and hibernated.

I had bad news about my health insurance yesterday that puts me in a quandry. The one I currently have is ending sooner than I thought and I have to decide whether to opt for very expensive COBRA or switch to a less desirable one that my doctors don't accept and find new physicians. None of it bodes well, alas.

I didn't get anything at the Mayle Gilt sale either. While I liked the black lace dress, it sold out in my size and given my health insurance woes, I probably shouldn't be shopping anyway.

Thanks Joyce and Caroline. I've really had a terrible day with some pretty shattering news that I'm trying to process.

That's awful, Moya!! I hope the health insurance gets sorted out soon. I complain a lot about living in Canada albeit temporarily, but I'm grateful for the health insurance. Even though it's almost impossible to get a doctor, at least I'm covered for emergencies.

I have 3 students who never turned in their papers due nov 30. Crazy cakes!!
