My Hell Is Finally Over...

And, it's my 200th post! What a day! After 10 months of hell, hoping and praying-- my hell is over. Chris got his letter today, calling him back to work on April 2nd. We'll have health insurance sometime in May. I can breathe a little easier, knowing I'm not going to have to worry about how we're going to pay the bills, or how in the world I'm going to go to the doctor. For the first time in a year, I'm going to get to go to Dr. Crowder, and get the health care that I need.

Although our hell is over, there are still many who are still out of work, and need our thoughts and prayers. For all of you who have kept us in your thoughts and prayers-- thank you. It really means a lot.

In closing, I'm going to share with you, some things I took for granted, and never will again...

I took for granted being able to go to the grocery store, and buy what we needed, without having to worry about whether or not we'd have the money to pay for it.

I took for granted, having health insurance.

I took for granted, going out to eat and to a movie on the weekend.

I took for granted, being able to go to McDonald's or any fast food place whenever I wanted.

I took for granted, being able to go get my nails done.

I took for granted, being able to fill up my car with gas.

I took for granted, that my medicine would always be there, and that I'd be able to pay for it.

I took for granted, so many things that on any given day would seem trivial to some, and huge to others.

I pray, that I will never forget where I've been, and that I'll never be there again.


PS: On a light-hearted note-- for those of you who were asking about my "stripper pictures", those were taken at a friend's house, in their game room. The guys are two of my best friends, Justin (blonde hair), and Michael: AKA: Penny Meat Patty (brown hair).
