Yep, it's snowing

[rolanni]

It got a late start, but it's making up for lost time. After the storm finishes with us -- about 10 p.m. -- we can expect winds up to 40 miles an hour until, oh, about 10 a.m. tomorrow.

Boy, am I glad I was in today, early to late. And thrilled beyond the telling of it at the prospect of driving Binjali the Altima into the teeth of a gale to get to work tomorrow.

Today, bookkeeping and bill-paying got done, though I'm still behind on a whole lotta database entry, and my weekly reading. I need a secretary, dadrabbit! Failing that, I need affordable freelancers health insurance so I can quit the day-job and get caught up on all this non-work I've got cluttering up my life. I keep thinking that, once I get Longeye in the can, the heat will be off. I suspect that this is a Coping Mechanism.


Progress on Longeye:

35713 / 100000 words.
36% done!

There is no such thing as affordable health care outside the corporate matrix. I had to scratch to find some for $550 a month. Oh, if AARP had any in my state I could have done a lot better -- but AARP is way patchy in its offerings. None in KS. None in ME.

Perhaps the Freelancers' Union???

I saw their segment on NOW last night--they have semi-affordable [as in HSA accounts with high-deductible insurance] agreements with insurers in 30 states. I'm a bit leery of HSAs because you have to lay out a few grand for routine exams and so forth before they kick in, but if I lose my day job for whatever reason, I'll have to sign up. Hubby has Medicare B so we'd have to sign him up for one of those Medicare HMOs like what they offer senior citizens--at least it's free to join the Freelancer's Union, thank Ghu!!
