Monday Morning

aleighk1 · January 2012

I slept like shiit last night and woke up at 4:30 out of no where. I start my new internship today with kindergarteners so maybe I'm just excited.

How was everyone's weekend?

mica178 · January 2012

Good morning.

My darned dog woke me up twice last night. Thank goodness she's cute because otherwise, I'd want to strangle her.

mica178 · January 2012

Good luck on your new internship, Aleigh!

Meg1036 · January 2012

Hi! I'm in Europe, so I'm almost at lunch time. I think this is the first time I have posted on the first page of the morning thread. Aleigh- good luck starting your internship.

aleighk1 · January 2012

Thanks guys! I'm excited but nervous at the same time.

Ah the night of no sleep, must be an epidemic. Same here in Western, NY. Drank a diet dr. pepper before bed, and couldn't fall asleep, then my daughter is home from college and she was moving around late last night, and then FI got called to work at 4:20 am. Dragging, Dragging, Dragging.

aleighk1 · January 2012

I'm jealous you're in Europe, Meg.

ski2play · January 2012

You will be fantastic Aleigh. KG is a really cool age!

Don't be too jealous. I'm actually working like crazy. I should be listening to a seminar right now.

mica178 · January 2012

Which city, Meg?

Meg1036 · January 2012

I'm outside Barcelona. I'll be here the next two weeks. We should have some time for sightseeing and fun next weekend. In the meantime, the weather is great and do is the path outside my hotel on the Mediterranean. I'm getting some great runs in.

aleighk1 · January 2012

Omg, I'm watching the local news and they're doing a segment on honeymoon registries. Ugh.

mica178 · January 2012

Ooh. I have fond memories of being in Barcelona in my early 20s. The weather must be comparably nice right now compared to home too. You eat meat, right? Eat lots of jamon iberico de bellota. Oh, and if you get bored of the city proper, go visit Montserrat.

Snippylynn · January 2012

It is lunch time here, and I'm most definitely not hungry. Kind of feeling stuffed actually.

Today is my first day back to work and man. I have no clue what I was doing before I left. i didn't even check my emails! haha

Sorry for those of you who slept badly last night. Hopefully you can make it through today and get a good nights rest tonight!

Meg1036 · January 2012

Oh, I eat meat. And there is a lot of eating happening here in general. Spain is delicious.

mica178 · January 2012

So tired.

Snippylynn · January 2012

Hey Meg! You should pop on up to Copenhagen!!

ski2play · January 2012

Must admit, working remotely from my bed for a while this morning. Goodness I love me an excel file, and a remote desktop connection.

aleighk1 · January 2012

Okay so, back in 2009 I had an abnormal pap smear so the gyn suggested I come in every 6 months instead of once a year. Well I received a bill for $85 from the local hospital (I think that's where they send the pap smears for tests? I don't know) and I assumed it was because we had to check our insurance and make sure they would pay for 2 pap smears a year instead of just one.

I was still living at home so my mom called the insurance and worked it and we thought it was taken care of. Well a couple of months ago I checked my credit report for the first time and that $85 was never payed by insurance so it was sent to collections. This is the only negative thing on my credit report and it has screwed my credit to hell. So my question is..does anyone know what I need to do to get rid of this? I tried calling the number given on the credit report and it was the collections agency and they just wanted my money and couldn't help me.

Should I call the hospital? Insurance company? Should I just pay it and hope it goes away? Sorry about all the questions so early in the morning. I just really need to get this taken care of and don't know where to start.

Snippylynn · January 2012

I would contact the insurance company and try to fix it that way. If it looks like a giant headache, I'd probably just pay it because it's not a ton of money. $85 shouldn't be allowed to ruin your credit.

mica178 · January 2012

If they did two Pap smears because one was abnormal, then your insurance should cover it. I'd start with contacting the insurance company.

I wish!

Stackeye210 · January 2012

Aleigh if you are ok with paying the bill to the collection agency then call them when you have the money. Tell them that you're willing to pay the $85 balance IF they take the charge completely off your credit. There are letters you can google for this, don't just take a verbal agreement though, you have to get every correspondence in writing. So you can either have them fax you or mail you the terms of the agreement (signed by a manager) and then you'll call them back and pay the bill. Don't let them tell you they can't take it off your credit, they can, they just don't want to. Ask to speak to a manager and keep calling back until they agree to take it off your report.

The insurance company can't do anything about your credit report, but the collection company can. Google is your friend for how to approach them.

Good morning everyone!

emilyinchile · January 2012

Morning all!

I think that exclamation mark used up all of my pep. No good news, no bad news, just a boring Monday over here.

dumdumfroggie · January 2012

Good Morning!

I'm pretty proud of myself. I actually made it out of bed for a 5:15 kickboxing class. I haven't managed to do that in a long time. I'm hoping I can keep it going. Though, my shoulders are already killing me, I think I'll have to convince FI to give me a massage tonight.

FutureMrsFezz · January 2012

Mornin'!

I like to keep it simple, Stack.

emilyinchile · January 2012

I work out after work and before dinner. It's totally a personal preference though - I just don't like working out in the morning, and if I work out after I eat I feel sick.

What's wrong with your blog?

ETA: Both cookaholicwife.blogspot.com and just .com are showing up fine for me.

dumdumfroggie · January 2012

LTB -

I've found in the past I'm more consistent if I get up early to work out. It involves getting up before 5, but it's over for the day.

If I don't do mornings, I try to go right after work (without going home first). Once I get home, chances are slim to none that I'll actually go out of the house to work out.

RyansBelovedBride · January 2012

Good Morning everyone!

Wow, Barcelona! Cool.

I hope the credit rating gets fixed, but I've also heard lots of people don't hold medical things against you, since obviously that can hit anyone.

Monday Morning
