Bless me Ladies and Gents For I Have Sinned...

It has been 13 days since my last post!  Sorry, just a little Catholic humor...

Anywho, It has been quite some time since my last post.  I was also very behind in everyone's blogs, but I am caught up now, whew.  Imagine my surprise when I read Tina's blog and saw that she has presented me with a BBA!    I mean, I haven't been the best blogger lately.  Thank you so much Tina for the thoughtful award - it really means a lot to me - even though it is probably the NYC food porn that got me nominated!  I will post my official BBA acceptance in my next post.


Just a little update on what has kept me away from my bloggin' lovelies (and whatever the male version would be)...

My husband and I are in the process of moving, the actual move date is this Saturday.  Things are getting crazy - I can not stand the boxes - every where I turn there are boxes and then more boxes!!  Also, I have decided to keep my weight the same this week since I can not find my scale!  My guess - it is in a box somewhere!

I was schedule for a fill last Wednesday, but Tuesday I received the call from the office stating that they would not be opening on Wednesday due to the forecasted snow.  Really?!  I went to work on Wednesday, what was the big deal?  So, then she tells me that she can't reschedule me until March, WTF!!  I told her that that was not possible for two reasons 1.)  I NEED a fill NOW!!!  2.)  My insurance will no longer cover my doctor starting March 1st (more to come on that story).  She agreed to squeeze me in this Wednesday (tomorrow), yay!!  I can't wait to get this fill.

The insurance story - I received some bad news recently regarding my surgeon's office.  Apparently my insurance company and the hospital are fighting, someone is being greedy no doubt.  Well, this greed has directly affected me - my insurance company will no longer cover the hospital/surgeon.  Boo Hoo!  I really love the RN, she gives the best fills and I am so comfortable over there.  The bright side - I will be moving farther away from his office and it would be a pain in the ass to get there.  So, I have contacted Dr. Ren's office to become a patient with her.  My current records need to be released over to their office and then they need time to review my files.  I have heard so much about Dr. Ren from my fellow NYC bloggers, so I am sure I made the right choice.  In fact, I might be the only NYC blogger who doesn't see her!

I was wondering where you had been! Where are you moving to?

Jersey City, no more UWS - I am going to miss it!

If for whatever reason, you wanted more time with your current surgeon, you could ask your insurance provider for a transition of care override, and that could buy you a few more months. Sounds like you'll be happy with Dr. Ren, but options are always good.

It's never easy, is it? Good luck with the move. The process is never fun, but it's exciting to move to a new place. Good job getting your fill scheduled.
