I hate writing papers! Tonight I had to learn APA format for my Social work class. Well, I took the easy way and bought a program off the web to do it for me. I figure since I am a social work major I'll be using APA format for all of my papers in the future so I might as well do it the easy way! Now to learn how to use the program! I fumbled through it tonight and have my paper done, but will need to spend some more time with the program to really get to know all that it can do. Luckily it comes with a tutorial so I should be able to figure it out.
I went to Chelsea's first softball game today. She didn't get to play, but they got stomped on, 15-0 , so it was just as well.
I have to tell you that my family studies professor is weirder by the minute! She has some freaky stories, and even though I don't think she is LDS she really works hard to try to show deference to that religion. Our lectures are pretty boring since they are basically a repeat of what is in the text, however she does seem to have a story for every situation, although many of them seem to be very far fetched. And having been a First Sergeant I have heard some pretty amazing stories myself. Hers just seem way over the top!
I had to deal with the dentist's office and my dental insurance company, and if that won't give you a headache, nothing will! I paid for some sealants for Chelsea's molars the last time she was in. It seems the insurance won't pay for them (I already knew that) but they have an allowable charge that the dental office can charge me, which is $13 less per sealant than I paid. Multiply that by 6 and that's a nice little bit of cash. Now trying to get the dentist's office to reimburse me is so much fun. But according to my insurance, part of their contract with the dentist is they can't charge more than the allowable. Now I have to take in my booklet to the dental office to show them the fine print they didn't read! The biggest lesson I learned is to call the insurance company each and every time the dentist wants to do anything other than a routine cleaning and exam. That includes x-rays, which my insurance only pays for ever 12 months, but the dentist office took every months. Guess who has to pay for that? Of course, me! I guess I was spoiled when I was on Active Duty, because pretty much everything was covered and the coverage was quite a bit less. I pay $68 every month for insurance for Chelsea and me. For those of you with dental coverage, is that a good deal or not???? I just dont' know!
I am going to bed! I am so tired!
