in an insurance agent's office (again) trying to get health care. Actually I think I got it sorted, so starting Jan 1 I have a plan that costs 2.4k per month (without subsidy,) with a 5k individual 10k family deductible, for a very limited HMO network. And it only took 9 days and 27 hours to make this happen. Yea!
No not yea, but atleast I can cross that off my to do list.
Couple of quick observations post first real snowfall:
1. Aspen doesn't use salt. I guess they are worried about purity of the water table. In Chicago they throw salt at everything and if lake Michigan is a toxic dump so be it. My dogs paws are much happier and my wife is scared she is going to break her C5-7 neck fusion on the very icy, slippery roads.
2. Snow tires are a must. See above.
3. Saw a 6 point buck cross the road in front of me while driving home from dog groomers, thank God for snow tires.
4. Dog groomers in Chicago are about 40% less than Aspen. Chicago you win that one hands down.
And on a happy note my 10 year old daughter's note to Santa.
Dear Santa,
I have been pretty good, but not great this year. I am not going to lie.
I really want a hamster. I don't want a thing, I want an animal. I want to show my parent's how responsible I am. I will take really great care of it.
Love,
daughter of Aspen green acres
Should I set up a kickstarter campaign for a habitrail? How do you think the dogs will feel about a rodent in the house? I suspect they will find it a tastee treat.
