A look back...

Well, I'm done with my days at the hospital for the week. Now, on to my other job...

So, it turns out that we may have Medicare here very soon. Yup, you heard right. Turns out, now that we are accredidted,it may very well speed along the process. Ben spoke to a lady at the Medicare office yesterday, and she basically said in so many words that once they receive the application, we may have the medicare number. I don't know, at this point, I'll believe it when I see it. We'll see what they decide to tell us next week. Maybe they'll say that since we help breast cancer patients, we need to supply pink elephants for all of the pink elephant lovers out there, because, if we don't, well then that would be pink elephant descrimination.



Anyway, aside from much of the crap we all have to deal with on a daily basis, I've learned to not sweat the petty stuff, and not pet the sweaty stuff. The other day I was trying to pep up Ben a little (as he does have a tendency to focus on "glass half empty kind of stuff") - I told him that this Medicare thing is a hurdle for us to get over, but remember when last December we kept saying, "oh I can't wait for the drywalling to be done," then it was, "oh, I can't wait till we can start on the paint," then it was "I can't wait until I can welcome people into the store and say Welcome to Fine Fittings." Now, all of that has come, and pretty soon, Medicare will be behind us. Ben and I both perked up a little after thinking of it that way. It's amazing how far we've come, and I totally believe that all of this is just shaping us for good things to look forward to.
