What an Interesting time. Working on a room for the Baby on the way. A little girl. So much to do with so little time left to do it in. At this point only 20 weeks left and about 60 weeks worth of 1 at a time projects. With work, appointment's, weddings, other people baby showers, etc there is no time. Plus trying to have some resemblance of a life with fun. I need a pause button to fit in a TV show during the week. No a better solution would be more TV's in Every room showing exactly what was on the other. Oh and the remote must work from all rooms. Problem, all the money for those new TV's needed for the baby room. Oh well Guess I'll have time after shes born right? (I wonder how much space my DVR has?) Yeah that's right time frees up after the kid is born (if only I believed that)... Great time though, wouldn't trade them for the world. Not even the world....

Some days
So much going on right now. An amazing time with the brain and everything else unstable at the moment. Getting read to take a needed short break. Well break may not always be the ideal word but thats what I'm going treat it like. Its call the low budget drive to see family. But hey can't have great amounts of theme park and 100 stop restaurant fun all the time. The big news is in less than 200 days there will be a little Houzvicka in the world. It's amazing to think all it took and how much in the hole I'm starting just due to it's birth. But hey a hole is made so you can dig yourself out of it right? Have to shovel the dirt in day by day. So much work to do on the house just to get ready, in October we find out the sex and I think this week is the 13th already. 40 total if all goes as planned. Still fighting with the insurance company about the money they should of paid and didn't but that should be resolved in a month or 200. Today having a yard sale to sell the junk that I'll end up just giving away to Salvation Army if it doesn't. I need the room in my garage. It's amazing how people haggle with you on prices (I don't mind this its a yard sale) but the others you tell them a higher price and they don't even try a lower one. They think thats your final price, haggle people. I shouldn't have to say while your walking away what do you think is good. ITS A YARD SALE not a retail store. When I worked in those I had people haggle all the time (and thats just funny, Sure I can lower the price of that TV screw what the manager says). Honestly this is old crap, I'm happy to give it to you I just want a little green or silver for it. Thanks for reading me ramble I'm done now...

Explain This to me
Ok trying to figure this one out. For those of you who don't know my Wife and I are going through IVF. Very expensive to say the least I'm broke now. Anyway's, Before we did the IVF we did the things called IUI's Insurance covered 100% besides the final part where we paid 200.00 each time we went through it.
No big deal compared to the IVF. The IVF we have literally paid thousands which is 20% of what our insurance paid not counting a surgery Mel had to have earlier this year which helped with the deductible etcetera.
Well we went to an appointment today that consisted of a blood test and ultrasound same exact thing that we did with the IUI and we paid 0.00 because insurance covers it @ 100%. Well this time there was a 40.00 charge I question as to why there is a 40.00 charge. The answer because they put an office visit on the bill. Ok well I understand if we see a doctor and sit in the office or ask a tin of questions that there could be an office charge.
I'd accept this with no issues. But there is nothing different from this visit to the IUI. With the IUI they did the ultra sound the and blood work, the doctor reviews the information and says increase dose, reduce dose, keep same dose etcetera. The Ultrasound nurse calls and relays whatever the doctor said.
Well the exact same thing is going to happen today, the only difference will be that the ART nurses will call. (Nurses that deal with only people doing IVF). So I call the billing lady and ask "Why the extra charge for an office visit when this is the exact same procedure as the IUI?" She says that its because the doctor reviews the results of the test. I reply with that is the exact same thing they did with the IUI. My final answer was this is what we do for patients that have insurance.
Hummmmmm. So I get charged more because I pay out of my pocket less............
Oh and this is going to happen at least 2 more times possibly many more.....

The bill
I find it amazing how two opposing views cause so much fighting. I disagree with giving anyone anything long term that one can work for and provide themselves, others believe that certain things should not be an individuals responsibility and should be given to them. There nothing wrong with either view except the view that it has to be one way or the other. In my opinion the more that is given to you the more you rely on the person giving. This gives them (the giver) more control. Now the same can be said when you give your money to a corporation, the only difference in my opinion is I can give someone else that money, if it becomes my government that I'm giving the money to what can I do (quickly) if I don't like what or how they are spending it?
Where government should step in is to make sure those corporations are treating everyone the same and create basic guidelines on what should be offered to the people. Personally I believe part of today's bill does some of that, but a larger part of the bills makes me do something I may not want to. With the items that are going on in my life today and the way the bill currently is, not a lot is going to change. From the looks of it I will have less in the elective coverage because I have whats considered a "Cadillac" plan. So for the same amount of money the company I have will likely drop a lot of the optional coverage because more of that money will be going to pay for others lower end plans. From the amount that is coming out of my pocket to pay for it I don't think its a high end plan, I feel as though I'm paying for it and at this time in my life and the issues we are going through it's worth every penny (and I don't have many pennies left).
Now there are other people in my family and friends that don't have any insurance because there job does not offer it. Part of the bill I like is that it will make employers get insurance or pay a fine for each of their employees. The issue I see with this is I think they are missing the reason why companies don't offer insurance. Cost is why they don't offer it, I certainly don't think the majority of companies are so greedy that they don't. Addressing cost is key. Large business picked up insurance as a way to lure more employees if the cost was affordable so would smaller companies.
The solution to this would be lets lower the overall cost of health care by 1. setting a cap on the amount a lawyer can make of the case of an individual (they currently make a percentage in most cases and most of our house and senate were what?) 2.Medicaid and medicare pay a set amount for each procedure, why? If the government pays a set amount and that amount doesn't either cover the cost or is more than most would charge whats going to happen. A. they are going to pass the extra cost onto others or B they are going to charge everyone more based on that price.
[Tangent: Just like the current issue in Florida with Home owners insurance you can't stop competition, competition lowers cost. If the (in my opinion) corrupt government official who was supposedly taking large sums of money from the insurance companies didn't stop the rule that prevented home owners insurance companies to sell under a separate company in Florida our insurance rates would not be as high as they are today. End of tangent]
Also there should be serious benefits for not for profit hospitals and Dr's at least in the short term. This would show how much the costs should really be and give you competition and a shopping option.
[Tangent: The equipment Dr's use are extremely costly no doubt but 600 - 3,000 dollars for each cat scan is crazy. If your doing just 10 a day 1,560,000 - 7,800,000 a year. From what I can see they are likely doing more than 10 a day. Cost of an average cat scan machine from 200,000 - 500,000. Now I'm pretty sure they don't replace those machines every year and I'm sure there is some kind of maintenance cost to it plus labor for the techs who get paid ok. On the low end fee and the high end machine that's 1,060,000 profit if you were to buy a machine each year. Retail store generally charge 50 -100% markup on every item so if they were buying a new 500,000 dollar machine each year this would be justified. end tangent]
Bottom line I feel and what I should of just said to begin with is I believe heath care reform is needed. I do not believe they are going about it the right way and depending on which polls you chose to believe neither do the majority of the American people. I believe the solution is to give people more choice by having government only stick a toe into it not jump in with both hands. I guess we will see where this goes I hope that it doesn't make thing worse and opens a door for real non single dependent change.

So young so skinny....
I love looking at older pictures in this case from 2002, almost 8 years ago. I find it like looking at old technology but in reverse. With the technology you go man those cell phones were so big and heavy. They couldn't do much and were real slow. Where as when you look at an old picture your like wow I could run so much faster, was so much skinnier, and looked so much better. Oh well hopefully many more years to go and in another 20 years I'll be doing the same with pictures from today. Sorry to all of you who right now are going, "you think your old, wait till you get to my age". No worries its my plan.

Amazing
Amazing. People are absolutely amazing. What can one person do with a block of time some determination and an idea? The answer, Anything. Take this little picture to the side of this post. Is it the best Dachshund cake ever? Yes it is. Why? Well besides the fact that my sister made it, it shows one way people can be amazing. Just joking around (after a previous birthday cake in the shape of a pyramid) I said I wanted a cake with the Sistine chapel on it. Did I really? No way, but it was funny to say. So what do Melissa and I get, a cake with our dog on it. Great, Awesome, superb. Just goes to show with a block of time an idea and some initiative anything can be done. I work 12 hour shifts Sundays being an extremely slow day 90% of the time, today I started a project I have until the end of February to complete, well with no distractions I'm already 75% done. Just some documentation and testing to do. Should have all that done next Sunday baring no major issues. I just find it amazing that with few distraction and a fairly set goal what can be accomplished. There was no bribery or back stabbing, or even constant talking done here just work. Thought I'd share.

Melissa
Melissa has started staying at home and is no longer working at a place that sends a check, so she has taken up a few additional duties as a full time domestic. She is learning how to cook a variety of things and is actually doing better than I thought these first few meals would be. Considering I've done 98% of all the cooking since we have lived together she is doing superb. The house for the most part is shiny minus a span of a dryer breaking down and cloths were getting scarce. Not her fault dryer was bound to break. Now that its up and running. The only real downside is the power bill just went up. Don't know if I can blame her for that or this global warning.... Either way glad to have her at home most of the time. Your doing well babe.

We wander around life just looking
Hoping to find something nice
We run into bad
We run into good
We are never satisfied with just nice.

Another year 2009
Another year has come and gone. So many yet so few things have happened. Things you don't want to remember and thing you never want to forget. Friends have changed, people have moved but the world still turns in the same direction. Politicians you agree with and ones you don't. Companies firing and other hiring (not as many as you'd like). Points in life that you want to reach and having monkey wrenches thrown at them in times of need. Every year you say "is it Christmas already" because when you look back you realize how precious that time was, how much you would like to go back and change something ever so slightly, how quickly your time will go. In ten years you'll say where did the last 10 years go? In 50 you'll say oh what I could of done if....
The real truth is one day at a time and there is never enough time. Cherish every moment and try to remember every memory. Tell those stories of when you were a kid or back in your day.... They are how we continue and give us something to look forward to. Your goal in life is nothing more than to live it. to experience everything you can and enjoy every moment you can. As far as I know there is only once change here, so even if your not president and don't think you can change the world, you can change things. Maybe not on the global scale you think your life should be worth, maybe were just here to change the ones around us, the ones we love. Maybe the years go by so fast so we don't waste them, don't not pick up the phone and call your kids, don't not play that game of cards. Maybe our point is just to be that point in someone's life. Be the shoulder, that kick when they need it, that story of a fish so big... This year just be. Do nothing else but be.

Something so Simple
It is amazing how something so simple for people you would consider don't deserve it, can be so hard for you. Now mind you it's simple for others as well that do deserve it but they tend to be the ones that have some kind of complication. I guess its just one of those ways they test you. At least me believing in a higher power is going to say that. The only other thing I can think that would cause the issue would be environmental, but you can rule that out right away because all the people around you are not having any issue. I guess its just what keeps life interesting and give other people the drive to do something about it. It truly is an amazing world we live in, where something that could not happen on its own for whatever the reason, we as people have found a way to make it happen. To correct the error, the brain misfire, whatever the cause. Now by all means we are not perfect at this, but every moment we get better. Thanks to all of those people who strive to fix what we or something else has broken.

Wakoopa
I stumbled across this program. It is very big brother like, but has a decent ULA and allows you to shut it off if you'd like. It tracks all the applications you use on your PC. Tells you how long you use them for and suggests other programs that may interest you. Show you what other people are using and what they say about it. I'm liking it so far. We will see what it does as time goes on. No disruptive adds, actually no ads of any kind unless your at their site. At this time I'm suggesting check it out. who knows you may end up liking it.

Obama Obama
OK, so far all I have heard is Obama will Change everything. He will make everything better. A congress woman Lisa Gladden (D), a Maryland state senator, made the following asinine statement
It doesn’t matter if the state of Maryland is broke as long as Barack Obama is President of the United States – this is great!
What? Are these people crazy. He himself said during his campaign that he would hold himself to higher standards. Bring back Moral Values, ect ect ect. So far all I've is scandal. Oops did I say that word. He has blinded millions. Why? Because he can speak better than our last president. He has no history of anything but a family story. He's held power where? No where! Where is this change? Let appoint more politicians with fraud in there past. Ohh it was an oversight that I didn't pay those thousands in Taxes. Yea if it was you or I we'd be in jail. When will preople realize its not the president that has control of the nation? He is just one of the branches. He has no more power that congress. The difference is hes 1 man and they are many. We had the best economy the nation had ever seen when "the ones who name cant be said" was in office. It wasn't until the house and senate was taken over by "the political party represented by an Ass". Yes the president could have done something to stop the housing debacle, but so could of Clinton who put it in place. For that matter Congress could of stopped it as well.
Yes we started a war that could of been delayed for a while but I do believe that this last month more Americans died in accident than in combat. Obama did nothing for that. I do believe that now we have a nation that just had there second election that at least on the outside looks like the people picked someone with no ties to any terrorist org. I do believe that we now have a friend in the middle of the most dangerous place for Americans on this planet. Crap in a few years Disney might move there. It couldn't do worse that Paris.
Maybe now the media will stop ogling and drooling and start criticizing. Then they would have to admit their mistake wouldn't they.

MySpace or Facebook
Well all I think I have officially made the switch. I think I enjoy Facebook way more than MySpace now. I find myself attracted to the simple look and multi stream update style. It seams cleaner and I am finding the apps a welcome addition. (not join this or become part of my posse) I notice I update my status daily for Facebook and once a week or two for MySpace. I have the same access to both, I'm at a computer all the time. There ads seem much less invasive. Bottom line if you want to keep up with me you can no longer count on MySpace. I'm sure I will still visit on occasion, update my status every week or so, Maybe even make a post now and again. I will however do this at a near daily basis (excluding this week while I'll be in the Bahamas

Wait that wasnt the topic... it was feeling like I am already on vaction... Ahh it dosn't matter Im out of here.....

Family
I was told that my recent post were rants. So I figured this one shouldn't be. There are many more thing I will rant about I’m sure in the future. This post will be about family. What is family? Is family DNA, love, a feeling of obligation? Family is not only all of those things, its none of them as well. I have many family members. I have to say most are blood but many are not. I believe family is anyone you can turn to that doesn’t judge you negatively. They are always there to back you (even if your wrong). They may not agree with you. They may have the complete opposite opinion and voting preference but they are still family. I have 2 (soon to be 3 ) nieces but my sister & brother have no kids, I have a step brother, and 2 step sisters, A step mother and dad. A father and mom. Several Uncles but only one Unc, many cousins but one Cuz.
I guess my point is even with a huge family you can be alone, but with no blood relatives your family can be huge. Its all about the people your around.

Culture
Well as I've mentioned before I was almost outsourced. By almost I mean that we were. I got the letter saying our jobs have been made redundant. Actually it said that they have found duplicate resources. Then 2nd quarter when we were suposed to be laid off they relized that they needed onsight personel for our job and that it couldn't be transitioned 100% offshore. So 4 of us kept our jobs. Thankfully most of the employees already left for other positions but there were a couple that were still laid off. Anyway a story for another day. Culture was the title and thats what Im going to talk about tonight.
We were picked up by an Indian company. Obviously not American Indian. Everyone I have meet has been very nice and we have very few issues. We all notice the culture changes. The head moving side to side almost like no (this means yes), the "do the needfull"'s, the fact that 90% of them out vegitarians, and the most anoying thing of all.........The lack of the same since of time.
I have tried very hard to adapt to the differences. The fact that they seam to refuse to read a document because if they have to look at it someone might think you don't know what to do and think your dumb. Even though some how it is ok to ask the same question 40 times knowing that there is a document that says exactly what I'm going to tell you because I made the document...
Anyway back to culture, It is almost like looking into the past of America. Back when we all lived with our families, I mean generations. Grandma, mom & Dad, Wife and Son... Wait when was that? Never? It just different... Not that it weired or anythign just different. Seams odd from this angle I guess. There are a lot of neat things, the Saree's are cool neat way to dress.. the fact that family is the most important thing to all fo them is awsome.. So is mine. The fact that there are 3 million of them fresh out of college all eager to work for little to no money unable to do anything else because there government is so currupt it makes ours look like a saint.
Ok Im done.. way to finish right......

Even though some how it is ok to ask the same question 40 times knowing that there is a document that says exactly what I'm going to tell you because I made the document...
Anyway back to culture, It is almost like looking into the past of America. Back when we all lived with our families, I mean generations. Grandma, mom & Dad, Wife and Son... Wait when was that? Never? It just different... Not that it weired or anythign just different. Seams odd from this angle I guess. There are a lot of neat things, the Saree's are cool neat way to dress.. the fact that family is the most important thing to all fo them is awsome.. So is mine. The fact that there are 3 million of them fresh out of college all eager to work for little to no money unable to do anything else because there government is so currupt it makes ours look like a saint.
Ok Im done.. way to finish right......

The man
There once was this guy. This guy didn't like to do much. He wanted to sit around and dream of how things could be if only... If only he would win the lotto, if only he would get that high paying job. If only he could have more time. We then this guy died. Kinda glum huh? Get out there, live life today, you may not have it tomorrow...

The world
Something's wrong with the world today. I just can't place my hand. The something wrong with the world today and .... Until we all stop complaining about it and get off of our butts it wont get fixed. Everyone think all well if we elect the right president then.... Give me a break. The only thing the President of the united states does is sit up there a figure ways they can get a spend more of our money.. Same goes for congress. One day we will have people in who actually care. The day people realize those they elect have to do what they we tell them. Instead people just vote the same idiot in over and over. I have to say Congress has done more to screw up this country than any president can. Anyways off topic.
Where does personal responsibility start. I know it was really bad of the mortgage lenders to deceive you. But come on did you not read the lending agreement. Your signing a agreement for 15-30+ years. 100's of thousands of $$$$$ that's 3 0's after the comma. ?00,000.00 That's a lot of money. Why didn't you people get a lawyer? 200.00 I had one and I only spent 65,000.00 That's at least 60,000 less that most of you. He cost 200.00 and it took 2 hours to go over every inch of paper. You know what he did? He explained the big words I couldn't understand.
The was plenty I knew I didn't know when we bought a house. It was our first. whats your excuse.
Now lets go to Jobs. Get one! Yes it may be better for you to stay on unemployment that way I can pay for you to make dang near the same amount of money as when you were doing nothing at work and got fired.. Or outsourced. (Don't even yell at me for that my company outsourced me. I was looking for a job and got lucky they picked me up last min. Yes I work for India now) That's still not the point. You can find work. It may be something different. Maybe this is the time to reevaluate your life and take a different direction. I know I am. This outsourcing thing scared the crap out of me. I was mega lucky to be picked up. But guess what if I wasn't Id be working a Mc D's or 7-11 maybe both before I took unemployment for longer than a couple of months. Oh yea and if you think the president is going to make jobs, give me a break. The president doesn't make jobs they make it harder for business to. Wait lower taxes on businesses so they will do what? Outsourced more jobs or be able to afford the penitentiaries for hiring Americans. No one realizes (but those of us who had businesses) That money you see come out of your check, Your business matches it. Yes that means if you have 200.00 come out every week in SS$'s your company send in 200.00's too. time that by X number of employees.. No wonder they just hired 300 Indians to do what 200 Americans can do. They don't need to pay them as much as you, and they don't need to pay the gov as much.. Nice tax break huh!
That's it I'm done for now.. House is on..

The First blog
Why did I start this blog? Who is it for? Why would I do something like this?
I started this blog so that in the future I could go back and see what I thought about the past at the time I was in it. I'm sure as I grow and educate myself some of my ideals and thoughts will change. Not many but some. I have decided to periodically do this as kinda a journal. Anything I put here has no baring on reality and to the best of your knowledge if for entertainment only. Anything I write here is written in a world of Fiction, (This means not real for the rest of you) So if I say I hate the world and am going to kill everyone.. Guess what I'm not. ( I would not say that except for the example, but you get the point. I hope)
Like I said this blog is for me. So if you don't like what I say. Leave me a comment, let me know what you think. I probably don't care but I may need some entertainment in the future :-).
So what can we take home from this post. (besides I may be insane) We can all take home that anything I put in this blog is fake or made up. I may believe what I'm putting but for the sake of arguments I may be writing a story and need your help with comments. To that point I am the only person who has rights to use anything I say for financial gain. So this stuff is automatically and fully Copyright, All Rights Reserved, I do not grant this to the public domain.
Thanks
