Okay, so I thought I was on the ball. I had an application in for insurance and called my manager to find out when I start getting paid per analysis. However, Murphy's Law strikes.
Dad informs me that the insurance sucks. Not only that, but pretty much every insurance agency in Florida does not cover oral contraceptives. Hey, I can't help it that they help. No, it's not a diagnosed medical condition. I just prefer to not have a week every month where my body goes completely haywire from my face to my feet causing me to want to sleep for about 7 solid days. So, panic ensues.
Then, I call my manager and she tells me "yes, just turn in the last two weeks work log tomorrow". Um.... I though I was still salaried through July??? Evidently when I asked when my new pay scale kicks in and she said August, she meant the check that will cover August's rent. Oh and she follows it up with "I know that it is a short pay perioud..." Crap. Crap, crap, crap.
Well, lucky form me you ladies were right. I have done nothing but work. So, if I did two analyses today, I am good. However, when I panic, I shut down. So, instead I am writing to you before I start my second analysis at 1 in the morning my time. Nice to know I don't have to go back to work at 8 eh?
I hate it that I shut down when I panic, but I'm worried. I need insurance, even though a few friends have told me that I can let it lapse. (For some reason, I'm just sure that is a bad idea.) I have alternated between working at half the normal pace and checking things out online. Stupid, stupid me. Never think you have it all figured out. Oh well, I'm sure somehow God will quit laughing at me and let it all work out. Man I hate being the but of his jokes.

Things just can't seem to work out how we plan, huh? It will work itself out though, I'm sure. You're lucky you've got your parents to help you (thanks Dad) and that you've been working plenty. It will be fine. Breathe.
OK, listen. When I quit working in the office to stay at home with Addison before I could get on Jeremy's insurance, I went to Planned Parenthood. You don't have to have insurance and they will scale your meds to your income. You are fine. Look it up in the phone book. YOU WILL BE FINE!!!
Relax, Stace. Part of the problem is you feel you are too far away to get help. You aren't. Everyone is still just a phone call away. That's how we all talked when you were here, so it isn't any different. YOU WILL BE FINE!!! God isn't laughing.... He IS on your side. Just testing you a little. You will make it through. I know you will!!
