OY! TECHNOLOGY!

Hey, all!

Things have been busy here.  Golfer surprised me with new phones for us yesterday and we've been getting them set up.  I've had a cell phone for years and have just used it as a phone.  You know, to make and receive calls, send emergency SOS's and such.  Golfer has had more functions in use on his phones.  But now I have been thrust into the 21st century and beyond with a wonderful Samsung Galaxy SII phone that appears to do just about anything and everything!  I love it!  Thanks, Golfer! I've just completed entering contact information and pictures and am ready to move on to downloading a game!  I'll let you know how it goes.

In other news, evidently it is now the time for hospitals and medical professionals to audit their books and mail has been coming in saying they have not been paid and I'm supposed to follow up on that.  And after last Summer, that's a lot of possible bills!  We've been very fortunate and most have flown through our insurance companies systems with no problem.  But I just received a letter from the hospital saying they were owed some money for service on January 1, 2011.  WTH!  That's a problem on so many levels.  It was a holiday, it was a Saturday, I have nothing on the calendar for that day like an ER visit (I keep calendars for a couple years for just this purpose) and they didn't say which insurance company I was supposed to check with!  After trying for two days to reach them and being on hold for what seemed like forever, I was told "never mind, they were checking into it"  Geez!

It's been cold for a few days and is now warming up again.  Supposed to be near 70 tomorrow.  Winter in Virginia.  I'm not complaining.  I'm ready for Summer.

It's time to go check the laundry and start supper, so that's it for now.  Stay safe!
