Between the dentist $ eye doctor, I am broke!

February 11th, 2008 at 02:28 pm

Yikes!!!!!!!
Went to the dentist today and needed a crown. Will have to go back in 2 weeks for the permanent one and to have some cavities filled. Total $1482.00
My crapola dental insurance through work is covering a whopping $57.00. I think that is just because it is a new year and I have to pay the deductible before the real benefits kick in?! I am not sure how that works but when I go back in 2 weeks I am going to ask. The good news, if there is any, is that I don't need a root canal Smile

Yesterday I went for my eye exam and to get some new glasses. I have been a contact lens wearer for years but now that I am working at a computer 8 plus hours a day I am getting awful eye strain. I figure wearing glasses more often would help with that. Of course, before I could start wearing glasses more often I had to get a new pair. $230 for the frames, lens, and complete eye exam. The glasses won't be ready for 2 weeks because they have to order my lenses.

I guess when you turn 36 you really have to start taking care of yourself!

Birthday party went well over the weekend. We had 3 additional guests and I wasn't able to keep my grocery bill to $40.00. I came out to about $62.00. Oh well, I just won't shop for food this week Smile

Off to the gym. Taking 2 classes tonight, going to get my moneys worth!
