I’m so happy!
This was one of the major things about becoming a citizen, the main reason that I wanted to get my citizenship was so that I could vote and have a say in things which affect my son’s future, and today I got to exercise that right for the first time. I’m all a-buzz! [...]
Anniversary of HorrorPosted by Ami-chan on
I was saying this past weekend was the anniversary, because it was a Sunday that we wound up at the hospital with the munchkin, but this is the official date last year of when he pulled a hot cup of tea on himself and we had to be air-lifted to the hospital in Orlando.
How [...]
Drying OffPosted by Ami-chan on August 25, 2008
I think we’re finally shot of the dregs of Tropical Storm Fay. I wasn’t all that worried about the storm from the way it was going and the strength of it. I was figuring, well, we need a lot of rain so rain will be good, what I didn’t reckon on was losing power several [...]
DampPosted by Ami-chan on August 21, 2008
We’ve been semi-hit by Tropical Storm Fay. I say that because it has passed over us, definitely, but all that it’s really done is make things incredibly damp and a little tiny bit windy. Yesterday was actually very nice weather.
Our new room mate and I went out into town, to the mall, to Office [...]
Tropical Storm FayPosted by Ami-chan on August 19, 2008
I’ve been a bit quiet as we’ve been trying to get certain things sorted around here before the potential hurricane hit. As it stands right now things are quiet with us. The storm has made landfall but it’s a lot further south and we haven’t even had any inclement weather.
Thinking of our relatives in [...]
Busy WeekendPosted by Ami-chan on August 18, 2008
We’ve had a very busy weekend, and it’s been tiring as well. I’ve been having trouble sleeping this past week which hasn’t helped. Even though I’ve tried to go to bed at a decent hour it’s always been at least midnight if not one or two a.m. before I’ve finally fallen asleep, to be woken [...]
Sims3Posted by Ami-chan on August 15, 2008
I’m excited about the prospect of The Sims 3 which opens the door to the Sims neighborhood and allows them to interact as a community a little easier.
I love playing The Sims 2 but have been disappointed by a few things, like how hard it really is to tell the difference in body shapes [...]
My TherapyPosted by Ami-chan on August 13, 2008
I’m still not sure about the future of my therapy but I did get to talk to my therapist the other day. The secretary from her office called me because she’d gotten a note about my benefits expiring and given the notations in my record that the primary office had put in she wasn’t clear [...]
Parity Response from Sntr. Bill NelsonPosted by Ami-chan on
I’m really happy to hear this! And so quickly too!
Dear Mrs. C—–:
Thank you for contacting me regarding research and treatment of mental health disorders. I appreciate hearing from you on this important matter.
Today, about 26 percent of American adults–nearly 58 million Americans–suffer from mental disorders. Under most health insurance plans, however, mental health services are [...]
Congress and Mental Health Parity LawsPosted by Ami-chan on August 12, 2008
To everyone in the United States,
If you want to help in some way with some of the problems we’ve been having (regarding the 20 visits to a mental health provider limit, whereas there’s an unlimited/high limit on physical health doctor visits (probably around $2 million dollars), please read this, write to your senators and [...]
