Rainy Tuesday AM

blog

It’s gloomy and rainy outside which just makes me want to stay home and watch spooky movies. Of course I am going to be an adult and go to work today, so instead I will listen to some spooky podcasts at work to get me through the day. My go-to podcasts for that are Morbid and Heart Starts Pounding. If I am feeling more true-crime vibes then I also add Clues!

I’ve been trying to organize / condense some insurance stuff at work since the system we use has DECADES worth of patient information and old insurance in it, so as the month slows down for us I’ve been trying to get as organized as possible. I still of course have my regular duties of claims, verifying, helping with PTEs, etc- but organizing gives me a different type of satisfaction that I enjoy.

Luckily today is kind of a short day for me, and then I have therapy after work which should be nice! I hope everyone has a lovely day ahead!

Happy Friday

blog

It’s finally Friday!! Better yet- we have a long weekend! I’m excited to see friends, but also to relax and recharge after this work week. I haven’t written on here in a while, but I recently asked for a raise at work and was basically told I am capped: “maybe not forever, but for now.”

I won’t lie, it was kind of a slap in the face considering how much extra work I had taken one since my last raise in January of 2025 (ahem- almost 2 years ago). However, this just means it’s time to pivot! Now I know I won’t get anymore money here or have any room to grow, so it’s up to me to either settle, or find more.

This morning I’ve already seen 444, 555 and 1111. Yesterday I kept seeing 333 EVERYWHERE- I just know I can trust that all is working out and my angels are supporting me. Of course that doesn’t mean I can just lay around and do nothing- I have to be intentional with my time and effort, which I deserve to give that to myself!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Friday and relaxing weekend, and I hope you get all the signs you are looking for!

Random Thoughts

blog

I feel like we all need to start re-centering and re-grounding ourselves. We all need to learn how to feel our emotions, instead of shoving them away.

I’m actually pretty sad that I get anxious to go on walks by my house. I cried about it the other day- but to be fair, I’m also on my period. I’ve just had a couple bad experiences, like 1. watching a dog get hit by a car and 2. some guy was going to try to kidnap me. oh.. and 3. a creepy coworker of mine showed up to my house unannounced while I was on a walk. Needless to say, I don’t really feel calm on my walks- I’m typically on high alert.

I selfishly hate that my cat has diabetes. It’s so hard for my husband and I to take vacations because she has to have her insulin twice a day, and she’s did horrible when she had an 8 hour stay at the vet, so she can’t really be put in a kitty hotel for long. I don’t want to fly her anywhere and driving her in a car for hours would also stress her out so it’s just all annoying as shit.

I am tired of patients yelling at me when aim trying to help them. You can’t really yell at me about your insurance policy- you signed up for it, not me. I didn’t write in the frequencies or downgrades or make up any of the stupid rules for your plan, and I also agree with you that they are stupid rules. It’s patients and providers against the insurance companies- don’t yell at me when I’m on your side!

I definitely need to drink more water.

I could really use a technology free day by the ocean. Warm sun, a light breeze, sand in my toes, and the sounds of the ocean… I feel like that would heal me.

I’m annoyed that Tell Me Lies is over.
