Honestly, it takes me a REALLY long time to get it sometimes...
About 2 years ago I lost my job and went back to school. About a year ago my healthcare finally ran out. (I was very lucky to have it as long as I did, so I'm not complaining!)
When I started school, I had to pick up coverage through school which worked out PERFECTLY time-wise (again, not surprising when He knows exactly what I need!).
But while I had health coverage for my son and me, neither of us had dental coverage. Rob really needs a cleaning (it had been just under 2 years and that's insane for a boy who is just starting to get his permanent teeth!). I made the appointment today and they are seeing him tonight.
Meanwhile, Bob is adding us to his dental coverage, but we're not really sure if we're on it or not. It seems there is endless paperwork. Every time we think we're done, there's something else to fill out in triplicate.
So I just made the appointment anyway because it really has to be done. I asked how much it would be worse case scenario and we're not yet covered...
"150.00"
"Wooo... uh, ok, then..." I hung up thinking, "ok, where am I gonna come up with that?"
I went out to the mailbox and today I received a check for a voice over job that I did a few months ago. I had completely forgotten about it. You'll never guess how much the check was for...
I'm such a stubborn Swede...
