Simple Ramblings

I haven't written much lately.  Haven't read much lately.  Haven't done much at all. 

Medicare sucks me dry on a daily. First I was having issues with the electronic payment system.  Then it was PQRS.  For those who are not in the medical field.  This is a reporting that each individual physician has to do each year otherwise you get a penalty from Medicare.  If we didn't report this year, 2016 would have been a penalty including a 2.0% decrease in how much they would pay each of my physician's.  If things were to stay the same, that would be roughly $14,000.00.  So we did it.  We reported.  I went through all the charts and got all the information needed and put everything together in a nice little bundle.  I hit send today.  It's like a huge weight is lifted off me.  Then the best part... the best part is when boss man (who previously fussed and threw a holy fit about everything, which I understood, but this is my first time doing all this so I didn't understand the process and needed to learn before jumping in) came up to me with a surprise.  First he tells me he's proud, THEN gives me a bonus for completing because he saw me bust my ass for the past week trying to get it all done.

YESSSS!

Makes the day better.  I woke up with my eye swollen half shut with no evidence as to why that would happen.  I have had a cough that I cant shake for the past 5 days.  I'm not talking about an occasional hack, I'm talking every five seconds I'm hacking up a storm because I cannot control it.  Makes me want to rip my chest out.  Nothing is helping.

So I want to sleep.  I don't cough as much when I am asleep.

On the bright side, I just got a bonus, tomorrow is TGIT, and I'm down another 2 pounds.

YESSSS!
