It's time for my weekly therapy courtesy of Kmama at The Daily Dribbles. Be sure to write your own sarcastic thank you post and link up with Kmama. Um...after you read and comment on my fascinating thank you's of course.
To the 1 hour and 40 minute break I had during subbing- which is great, but seemed to stretch on endlessly and made me want to go home. It would have been nice if some of the conference time was at the end of the day so I could leave early. Thank you very much.
To the medical bills that sucked 1/2 of my tax return to your payments. I refuse to give you all of it- so some of you can just sit and collect more dust. Thank you very much.
To the two companies who would not give me a discount on my medical bills if I paid the balance in full. You are now on my I-don't-like-you-very-much list. Thank you very much.
To the students who continued to talk and be disruptive even after numerous requests to quiet down. I am totally the sub who tattles on you to the teacher. Thank you very much.
To Jakob who schooled me on playing catch in the backyard. There is no reason to throw bullets at me- your poor mom is not a ball player. Thank you very much.

21 Validations To Make Me Feel Worthy:
Medical bills SUCK. There I go using that word again.
LOL!
But they deserve it!!!!!
:)
Oh Lordy... I'd be afraid to get in the backyard with a kid that has that kind of game face! He scares me through the screen (yes, I "catch" like a girl... UGH).
Companies will give discounts for full payments? I didn't know that!!! Man, what I've been missing out on!
(Especially since our insurance just added a $2500 out-of-pocket expense starting January... YUCK).
In the famous words of wife.mom.nurse... "it sucks!"
Happy TYVM Thursday!
"totally the sub who tattles"...haha. And I don't play ball with my kids. The ball usually finds my nose.
You're good. I have medical bills that need to be paid, but I got a camera for my birthday instead. Responsible, no? I put the ones that don't want to negotiate WAY down on the priority list and I make them wait until they decide some money is better than none. I'm so glad the 'administration' is going to fix health care, though. Soon I will have no worries. BAHAHAHA.
no interest payments on medical bills means I pay you 25 cents a month for the rest of my life just to show you how irritated I am that you charged me so dang much for a tylenol and then refused to negotiate with me if I paid it off early, so suck on that Mr. hospital bill person.
medical bills are of the devil...sneaky little punks!!
That was funny. Thank you very much for the laugh. Kids have no respect right?? My mom subs too.... Oh that picture is awesome. He is so cute!!
I.HATE.MEDICAL.BILLING.COMPANIES! I deal with them weekly for clients. I'll call asking what the balance is and what compromise in settlement they will take and 9 times out of 10 their answer is they can't take any because they've already cut their costs. Yeah right. Spawn of the devil I'm telling. Spawn of the devil!
I hate medical bills! They totally suck.
Some of our return is going toward medical bills, but much more is going to the credit cards. You'd think we would know better by now, but stupid is as stupid does...history is doomed to repeat itself...and all those cliches that apply! I'm not so good at catch either!!

I totally understand the medical bills. BOO. Between Noah getting sick, me (ahem) breaking my foot and my FaceAIDS disaster earlier this year, and my insurance taking 4-5 months to process ANYTHING, I am now getting little presents in the mail. Presents that I would rather return. Or regift. Or something.
Ha! Guess you're being taught a thing or two about ball, huh? Good thing I have girls ;) Oh the medical bills. Yeah, I was in that same position last year after a two week stay in the hospital, Kam's NICU stay, and daily doctor visits for weeks. Thank goodness for insurance or we'd really have been up a creek!
I would go crazy with an hour and forty minute break, unless I could nap or watch tv! LOL
Sorry that your medical bills are so massive. That is definitely a downer.
Thanks for linking uP!
I hate when my money is gone before it gets in my pocket. It is such a bummer!!! :)
I love that you tattle on them. I threatened my students' lives if they were bad for the subs. I think they actually behaved even better for the subs than they did for me. LOL
I hate when we have to use all of our tax refund on bills instead of fun stuff! We paided off my hubby's truck with most of ours, with a little bit left over for a little vacation!
We have never gotten to use our tax return for fun stuff. It has always been for the house. Ugh. This year the roof. Bye Bye return. GRRRRR!
Do you post your things at midnight, or what? I never get to read yours til the day after. Medical bills SUCK!!
Happy Thursday. LOVE the tattle tale teachers. Ha Ha. Being all grown up should have SOME perks, ya know? ;) and Pooey on the medical people, they should be happy to get ANY money, let alone a settlement. Sheesh. And we wonder why america is having health care problems now, huh? See ya tomorrow!
The only thing worse than medical bills is when the insurance company owes you a reimbursement and you have to wait FOREVA for them to pay it! Yup, I am still waiting on a reimbursement from over a year ago! No amount of phone calls, emails or speaking "to someone who can actually help me" seems to do the trick!
I'm totally the sub that tattles, too. Totally. And when those challenging kids see me after I've tattled on them, they always say, "You totally got me in trouble," and I'm all like, "No, you got you in trouble. I warned you." Then I cackle evilly as I walk away.
