I’m having the most remarkable day and I haven’t even left the house yet!

I got up this morning and really wanted to have a productive day so one of the first things I did was write a list of things that I need to get accomplished. I’ve spent the rest of the day working to accomplish those and then as I think of other things I just add them to the list and then work towards achieving those goals. There has been so much productivity out of me today I simply can’t believe it. And the things that I didn’t even have on the list that popped up that I really needed to deal with are all in the process of being taken care of. I will certainly use this organizational tool in the future – actually, I should do it every day going forward. Once I get all the back log taken care of there really won’t be that much to do every day to keep things flowing smoothly. I feel like I’ve learned such a valuable lesson and such a wonderful tool to keep my organized in my life going forward. Woohoo! I love today!

The other thing that I am so extremely grateful for is this issue with the Insurance Company. I was told to call today and that the guy I’ve been working with will hopefully be able to tell me if a resolution has been reached. So, I’ll either be told they are sending me just over $1400, or that they aren’t. It’s also possible they’ll continue to kick the can down the road and refuse to give me a decision at this time. This seems to be a tactic they like employing. I figure it’s because they think I’ll eventually give up. Boy, do they have another thing coming to them in that regard. I’ve learned a lot about myself and the world in dealing with this situation. I’ve also gotten to the point where whatever they decide today I’m claiming as a victory for myself. If they do send me the money that’s great because I could desperately use the money. If they don’t, it’s also a victory for me because I’ll take this to the next level and figure out how to sue them in conciliation court. It’s a skill I’ve been meaning to learn for a while and this could potentially provide me with the opportunity to do just that. I’m so angry about this situation, but it’s no longer because I’m the victim. It’s because of the countless number of other people who are being victimized by the Insurance Company who aren’t blessed with the same situation I am. People who can’t speak up for themselves in the way I’m able to do. People who don’t have the financial resources to fall back on like I do. That’s the real tragedy in this story. The Insurance Company is immoral, dishonest and bullying the American public (their customers). If it takes me to my last dying breath, I will work to remove vulture capitalism from the world. I’m not coming after the Insurance Company, I’m coming after the way they do business. That’s what needs to be changed. That’s what I refuse to allow to happen anymore.

I just got a great writing idea! Oh I really need to do this. I’ll have to start blocking off time to do some writing and really explore that further. God I love today!

Update: They are sending me the check. It feels like such a hollow victory. I’ve been gearing myself up for a fight that’s not going to be fought. I’m also glad I can go out and buy some stuff – like a mattress to sleep on since I’ve been sleeping on the floor at the house I’m squatting in. I’m certain there will be other fights to wage. This battle may have been won, but the war is still raging – and it’s that war that needs to be won.
