I hate packing. It's making me crazy. THere are boxes everywhere, and stuff in boxes and I can't find stuff I want and can't find places to put boxes.

I can't sleep comfortably. My back is okay for stretches, and then hurts again. I can pack in spurts and then have to take a break. And that just slows the process down. Add that to the fact that my sleep schedule has been a mess for the last two weeks, and I'm just frustrated.

I'm coughing. A lot. It's the "your asthma drugs need to be messed with" cough. Or it would be if I were still taking my asthma drugs...I went off them a while ago because I couldn't afford them, and then didn't feel like going back on them, so I never bothered. (You can tell me all you want about what a bad idea this is. I know. But I don't like having to take them, and I'm resentful and grouchy about it, so I'm less than stellar about taking my drugs.) So really what it is is I need to actually get back to treating my asthma and taking the drugs again, and I know this, and I'm okay with it, even if I am resentful and grouchy. Which I would do if I could get the refill line to recognize my health insurance ID number as valid...I paid COBRA for October, I got a letter from the benefits people saying it was paid and I was enrolled, and spent time on the phone today with the health insurance people trying to straighten this out. And when I tried again this evening...still rejected. I'll try after midnight, and if it still doesn't work, I'll call them again tomorrow and try again.

Okay, I'm not a happy camper. I'm going to try and finish the linen closet and make something to eat.

I think it must be COBRA that's all screwed up. We had it for December and January, and by the time I got everything straightened out, it was July and we were just getting bills paid off by them. If I hadn't ended up 2 steps from the psych ward in the part of February that I wasn't insured, I think I would have been better off with no insurance at all.

Hey you

I am really sorry to hear it. Get better soon. Sorry I dont write in your journal more, but I do read it! Love and stuff...

I think I remember you taking Singulair and Zyrtec. I take them, too. I buy them by the 90 day supply and am too stupid to take them every day like I should.

Let me know if the extrapolation of the above and the words "a couple weeks" make any sense to you, and whether you'd also like a small amount of bubble wrap.

[geminigirl]

It does make sense.

And yes, but you'll probably either have to meet us for happy hour on Thursday or somehow get to me; I'm not sure I'll be able to get to you, it depends on how packing goes.

Will try to figure it out. Did you want the bubble wrap too?

[geminigirl]

Yes. Thank you.

i totally sympathize, moving makes me crazy like no other. i really just hate seeing everything i own in boxes, and being transported. i'm not back to normal until i've nested in whatever new place i'm in.
i hope the asthma gets under control soon.

COBRA is the devil. I had it for about a year and it sucked. Good luck, and I hope you're feeling better!

I had believed that COBRA was the evil terrorist organization bent on world domination that was consistently thwarted by G.I. Joe. Actually my work offers insurance through COBRA too. I was thinking about applying for it next month, I guess I won't now.

This is actually the fault of my HMO. The benefits people have faxed them the form they need several times, for some reason they're having a problem. If you can get health insurance, do it. Don't let my poor experience with my own HMO make you decide not to apply for insurance.

OK, cool. I will keep that in mind then.
