I'm a tad frustrated .. lol .. I swear I have done good about not whining and complaining to badly about idiot boy .. sick idiot yes .. however sometimes an idiot is an idiot plain and simple.
First off interview went well I think I'm on the payroll for a job I'm having some challenges taking the testing so I may have to go into the office to finish it up. My computer doesn't have a 10 key pad or a mouse in the traditional sense of the computer world. So I will have to take care of that tomorrow. I don't doubt I can get a job the question is where will I fit in.
My daughter needs new contacts which is fine not an issue. Her father though is an idiot .. opps .. sorry I said that already .. I'm just reiterating for my own peace of mind that no I'm not crazy. He doesn't know how his insurance works .. I'm so not shocked .. so I sent him a text to explain that no his kids glasses will not be "free" .. he gets an allowance and I'm not applying it to the visit since it makes more sense to apply it to the script. Plus because of things being the way they are somehow the money would go back to my XAH instead of to me and there is no way that is happening in this lifetime.
So after some exchanges of text where I patiently tried not to call him an idiot and I did good because I just muttered it as I typed .. that's a step in the right direction thank goodness for progress not perfection .. lol. He is trying to tell me after I have spoken directly to someone that the glasses and visit are covered .. maybe that would be true in our hometown however that is not true at this point and this is what we will have to do .. his snarky comment he'll pay 1/2 when he gets the bill .. totally fine .. I can send it to him or I can send it to his atty he is more than welcome to make that call as I truly do not care.
Of course I have not heard from him. He's just such a jerk! So I will be out money I need however girl needs contacts and I may just by pass him and try and get her script from her old Dr and see if that will work. I'm hoping her script isn't up and that will fix that and I won't need him to send anything yet.
It just blows my mind he continues to do this and lacks the ability to admit he was wrong and he was wrong I was on the phone with two different insurance companies and finally had to speak with the Dr and the assistant explained the situation.
LOL .. no I just decided to make this up since that is what I do .. LOL.
UGH .. it will be fine however wait until the kids ask him for money for their school stuff he's going to be fit to be tied without question.
I'm not going to worry about it .. it is what it is and it's just so not on me.
Hugs S:)

it sounds to me like you handled this challenging situation very well! I am sorry for the frustration that comes from trying to explain our crazy health care system to anyone, let alone an XAH. Progress is the ultimate goal each day, right? Good luck with the script: hope it works for you and your girl:)

I hear you Serenity, patience is a virtue, isn't it!! Just state your facts and need for the kids and let HP take care of the rest. Try to detach it will give your nerves a rest. Hoping everything works out and you get the job!!!

I too am excited about how your interview went....yay for you!
The Health Care/Insurance process has become almost as complex as our tax system/forms. It's hard to figure out and follow and it is certainly difficult to explain or understand.
I agree with Debb - state your truth and give it up to HP - you have moved to a whole new chapter of life girl!
Keep us posted!
