One thing I told myself I would do this year would be to follow what God wants me to do. One of those things would be writing more and another is joining church choir. One of the reasons we joined Prestonwood is because of their amazing choir. I wanted to join last year, but with me being pregnant, it was a hard time to start something new. So 5 weeks ago, I joined and this last Sunday was my first Sunday to sing! It was great. You can't see me, but I am on the left side on the backrow. I look forward to more Wednesdays and Sundays!!
Due to my recent proactivity with my credit and paying off debt, I decided to give the hospital a call where I was admitted about a month ago and ask about my bill. I wanted to make sure I didn't miss it in the mail and I wanted to get an idea of what I'd be paying for my stay. I get on the phone with the billing department and the woman is just as nice as can be, really. She was surprised I'd even called her, considering I didn't even have a bill yet. She told me she'd sent the bill over to my insurance to be approved and paid but they hadn't heard back yet. "Just out of curiosity," I asked, knowing I would be responsible for 20% of the final bill, "how much was it?" What I heard next shocked me. "$61,000" she said. I said, "$61,000? I was only in the hospital for a night and only on anti-biotics, you can't be serious! My daughter cost me less than a third of that to give birth to and I was in the hospital two nights!...
