Okay, so I kinda lost it today. I found out from our benefits department that because I am the only one on my insurance plan, that I have to move to my training store's insurance, and then change again when I go to my permanent store. When I read that email, I burst out in tears. That was my breaking point. I sent some really nasty emails back about what I have been through these last few months with the insurance I had, and that if this is the way my company treats someone who is trying to advance their career, than I may reconsider my staying with the company (I said this just to get my point across)...See I wouldn't be upset about it, but I was sent an email before I started this program that if I wanted to keep my current provider then I needed to fax benefits, which I did, but, as you can see, that didn't work. It turns out my new insurance doesn't have a pre-existing clause, but may not use the same doctors I use. So, needless to say, I made an excuse about my dad going to the hospital and took the rest of the day as a sick day. Then, on the way home, a semi's tire blew up right in front of me, and I ran right over a big piece. What a day. But, after it's all said and done, I made it through it. It kinda upset me that I cried for the first time in months, besides happy tears. I have been feeling so good, and the little things haven't bothered me. But this insurance thing has been a burden since I transferred here, and it was just my breaking point. I am feeling great now. Friday night lights started again tonight, and I have a date tomorrow or Sunday. So, I am back to my excellent status. I guess no matter how hard you try to stay happy, a bad day is going to come along once in awhile, it doesn't mean everything is falling apart, it's just a day. Tomorrow will be a great one.
