Mommy plus Five

My 365...

Finally I can say goodbye to June.  "Goodbye June!"

This has been a particularly difficult month for us, but we have learned a lot, and have gained a whole new appreciation for this thing called life.  Every dark storm cloud that rained on our head, provided a rainbow and a silver lining.  We are thankful for that.

I have learned to appreciate private health insurance.  Why is that Veronica?  I take medication for Rheumatoid Arthritis, High Blood Pressure and Diabetes.  Cost of meds with private insurance, $47.85 per month.  Cost of my medication without private insurance...$2,950.00 per month.  That is per month!  It is expensive to be sick in this country without insurance.  Frightening.  Today was the last day of our private insurance coverage, but no worries, we will figure something out...we always do. :)

Despite all the difficulties, it has also been a month full of adventure and fun.  We did have a whole lot of fun.

July will be a month of promise for us.  New experiences, new lessons and above all...new adventures!

"Mama, call 911!  There is a slobbery male doggy in my immediate vicinity!"
 "Now now Miss Lilly, that is hardly a reason to call 911?"
 "But mama, he stinks!"
Such a little diva brat.
