Who would have thought that the most difficult part of getting ready for our trip would be getting a "vacation override" for the medications I take each day? If you are planning a trip which will require you to ask your insurance company for one, start working on that immediately! We started working on this in early December and finally got approval this morning. To be fair, the process may have been more complicated because the University of Akron changed insurance companies Jan. 1, but I would still start early.
To those of you who are associated with UA, Lucille in Benefits was wonderful in getting this through as was Lisa C. at Orchard Pharmaceuticals (the new mail order place for UA). I would recommend that you contact them if you need assistance.
We are still up to our gizzards in snow by southern standards, not so much by Ohio standards, of course, but the sheet of ice makes it even worse. They have closed the roads in our subdivision again today. There are about 1700 houses, but we are out in the country with hilly, curvy roads. (9 miles to the grocery store, for example) We are more than supplied with food, however, because I shopped for company that was supposed to arrive on Monday. (They are snowed in in North Carolina with relatives.) I do love appetizers.
Talk to you soon.
