THERE GOES ONE OF MY PROBLEMS
HAPPY EASTER TO ALL OF YOU WHO ARE CELEBRATING!
We were off for Good Friday ; hence we have a long weekend to do what we wanted to do.
And it turned up to be my lucky day!!!!!!
Ah Don received an early call on Friday morning from Ms Frances that my application for Health Insurance has been accepted by BlueCross BlueShield of Florida. This was certainly a Big Suprise and Great News to me.... Because, I do not expect to receive such an early approval . Fran told us that it may take about 3 weeks and that I may have to go for simple medical check before they consider my application. But ...... the approval came to me in less than 2 days !!
Thanks to my Gonhonzon for answering my prayer.
Honestly, I have been very concerned and worried about not having myself covered with health insurance in this country. ( And, thanks to my good health, I did not have to visit any physicians since I came here in May 2005 !!!) The medical fee here is skyrocket high! A simple medical treatment can rob you off thousands of $$$$ from your hard saving ! Come think about it, my concern come very naturally, right !
Back in Malaysia, I did not have to bother much about the medical cost if I needed any medical treatment either from the clinic or hospital !! Why ?? Because, I was then fully covered by the Company's Group Hospital Insurance; and all my visits to the company's appointed clinic was fully paid by the company (inclusive of prescriptions.) On top of that, I have my own health insurance and life insurance for extra protection too.
But, I am good now!! One of my problems is eliminated!!
What are the rest??? I shall keep them to myself.
As todate, I must agree that America is definately an advanced country for uptodate exploration but not a place when you do not have a good job and good income all the time.
Since moving to Florida, I can feel that people living around these areas are mainly people who were either retired from their good jobs and having good lives here or people who are multi rich to afford thier delux vacation homes here.
The cost of living is much higher than that in New Jersey. Ah Don and I used to joke about the difference of prices of groceries from Ewing and Sarasota. At Shoprite in Ewing, we could get branded ice cream at $1.99 but have to pay $3.99 in Sarasota( at sale price) !! So, we have cut down our consumption of Ice cream here >>>>> too bad !!
As spring is here.... I believe some of the snowbirds would be heading home.... what would it be like in Sarasota here in few months time? will keep you informed later....

THE LOSS
First of all, it's sad to hear that Uncle Al passed away last Thursday night ending his last journey of life.............I did not know much about him cause I only met him twice; but I can imagine that he could be a very joyous person by character..... eh.. someone also told me that he liked Girls.... that's interesting! I will remember him through the following picture because I made a sick person smile heartily to my camera
To the family of Uncle Al ......................Please accept our condolences
"Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
We are sorry for your loss."
