Teacher in the news in Houston

There is a teacher in the news in Houston, who has been caught treating children badly. She was teaching a kindergarten (LET ME REPEAT THAT...KINDERGARTEN) class and told the kids that she was "going to be mean to ya'll because ya'll are mean to me , and you are all stupid, God I swear" @!#$! She has currently been reassigned in the office for temporary while the superintendant undergoes the investigation. The kicker is she was suspended from school for a day in the past for slapping a child across the face!!! Am I the only one who feels this lady should be fired. Or at least reassigned to seniors in high school. These are our children. Little one who need to be taught. I don't think she should be put back in the elementary school with any children.

A Loaded Topic

Ok, well I know that the politics is a loaded topic, and I am not going to push my opinions on anyone. But the presidential election is something I feel compelled to be involved in. Never have I really paid as much attention to it as I have and am this year. I have been trying to do some research on the canidates to find which one I will vote for.
Here is one of my issues.....(although I am sure you will hear more eventually)
Insurance! And not that everyone in America needs to have quality health care. Yes I think it would be wonderful if everyone in America could have quality health care, but I think for starters you should be more concerned with getting the health care system to be quality! I have worked with insurance for about 6 years now, and if I could only share all of my experiences your mouth would fall to the floor. But a couple of recent ones have really bothered me.
Medicare for example. I was on the phone with them the other day for 3 hours (I kid you not) about an insurance policy on a patient. The patient says they have medicare, the EOB (explination of benefits) comes back they have an HMO of medicare, not actual medicare. I asked them to tell me what the policy is. I know they have it because they have given it to me before. She tells me I have to call an automated system to find out. After trying to even figure out the system in the end it tells me " And medicare is primary" I call back medicare and explain. She says well its not. Go through it again. IT TOOK ME 30 MIN THE FIRST TIME! I eventually get on the phone with a supervisor who tells me they can loose their job if they tell me. This has been sent down from congress, that if its available on the auto. system they can't give it to me. They have had pay cuts and they can either cut our pay (the doctors) or they cut the amount of time they are on the phone. EXCUSE ME but didn't I waist a couple of hours of rep time instead of the saying "oh, ok Robyn it is Impovement Plus insurance" I mean get real! The insurance system is very broken. I have another patient who I have been fighting his insurance since October. I have called on 9 different occasions and spoke with 9 different people, who all give me the same information. "yes we should pay for more visits, his policy states we will pay for 20 after the deductible" No one could get this processed. Then the other day I get a letter saying they applied the 20 visits to all visits which included ones that went to the patients deductible. AND THEY CAN DO THIS! No one stops them. We pay insurance companies to do what ever they want to.
This is just a few examples I have hundreds. But we need to fix what we have now before we throw all of america into it!

Dreams

I don't know if this is a sign or not, and don't want to read to much into it and get my hopes up. I keep having these dreams that I am pregnant. I was thinking, well maybe its just on my mind so much lately that it is in my subconscious also. But then, just a day or so ago Clint told me he has been having dreams that I am pregnant also. And trust me.....he isn't thinking about it as much as I am. Is God trying to tell us or prepare us for something?
MAN I HOPE SO!

Already....

Already here we are, life is so boring that I have nothing to write about. People always ask what we have been up too. Well.....working, paying bills, and sleeping at night. How sad! =(
I don't mean life sucks. Life is really quite wonderful. God has truely blessed me with a wonderful husband, job, boss, family, just not a lot is going on in our world right now.
I know once I get pregnant though, I probably wont have enough time to say what we have been up to. But really right now, nothing is going on.
Hopefully Clint will take me fishing this weekend if the weather is nice. It's been a while since we have been on the lake.

Peaceful Thoughts

Trust in His timing ~ Rely on His promises ~ Believe in His miracles ~ Rejoice in His goodness ~ Relax in His presence.

Uggghhh! People!

I don't know if it is just me, or if people are really just plain pootie these days. I can't stand it when you start talking to some one or just say their name for example and the first comment out of their mouth is "WHAT" all pootiness and poopy like! Why can't people be more respective and pleasant. Why not say "yes" or even "huh" would be much better!!!! I get so irritated with rudeness. I know I shouldn't let it bother me this much, but I just needed to vent. Does this bother any one else this much?

Complaints

As many of you probably know, I work in a chiropractic office. All day long patients are coming in and out. I usually try to ask everyone how there day is going. I get all kinds of responses. But usually I get...."terrible or I wouldn't be here" or " Can anything else go wrong" or "I don't see why God just doesn't take me now."
Its understandable from time to time for everyone to have a rotten day, but why right off the bat complain about it. In general "How is your day"......Well the sun is shinning, I am alive and God is good.
I challenge everyone, including myself to be positive and help share with others to be positive. Of course you will have your bad days. If not Heaven wouldn't look so good!

Starting this Blog

I hope in starting this blog that my life will get a little more interesting and give me something to really blog about. For example.....getting pregnant, maybe that will happen now that I have a blog, and I could blog about it.
Wish me luck, lots of prayers, and send me some "baby dust" if you are pregnant!
