The Lost Weekend


Talk about burning the candle at both ends !  Last week as grueling – so much work during the day and telecons in the early morning and evenings.  Finally made it to Friday wherein I had to go to a retirement dinner.  Made it home around 10pm … after stopping to buy flowers for Decy [...]

Waking Up Is Hard to do …..


Dinner last night was cancelled due to illness by the hostess (Samantha).  That is disappointing.  However, it was probably for the best.  I had another grueling day and worked non-stop until 8pm – including no lunch.  And, as you know, my days start early.
One thing is clear, this Old Man Morgan still has a few [...]

FLAME: I Hate AETNA


In continuation of yesterday’s blog regarding Aetna’s refusal to process a claim for the first of Decy’s two dental implants, I professionally and politely explained to Aetna that I have ALREADY submitted the information they requested and provided proof that I did so in 2007.   In fact, I attached an e-copy of the pre-determination submission [...]

Another Quickie


Sorry folks – have a ton of work to get done today … worked late yesterday and up again at 250am.  Need to focus on work right now.  However, I will take a moment to vent because of unnecessary wasting of time.
Two years ago as part of Decy getting her braces, we went through a [...]

Quickie


Sorry folks, this is going to be a very short blog.  Have a ton of work to do.  In spite of working much of the 4-day weekend … getting up at 250am yesterday …. and working until 730pm … I am still terribly far behind.  I feel like I’m part of an 8-horse wagon with [...]

The “Talk” Became “Walk”


In continuation of the weekend saga, on Sunday Decy, Chely, Thasya and I headed off to the 4 Seasons for our brunch.  We were about 30 minutes later than normal, but under most circumstances that would be just fine.  However, while on the way to the 4 Seasons, Decy advised that she had received an [...]

Sunday’s Here


And the saga of my 4-day weekend continues.  Let’s see, seems my last blog was through Thursday actual and ended with Friday’s plans.  So Friday, started out on a real sour note … after getting up at 6am and working right away I was also continually getting pinged all morning with emails from work.  The [...]

Long Holiday Weekend?


Question:  So what is the difference between a weekday and a weekend?
Answer: Only the commute and the number of emails I get.
 I’m desperately trying to have a 4-day weekend (Thursday being a holiday) so I can spend time with Decy, Chely, Thasya … relax a bit … and catch up on sleep.  However, this is [...]

Tuesday Turbulence


Wow, what another topsy turvy day at work.  As we approach a milestone on our planning cycle, all gears are kicking in for those individuals responsible for finalizing and presenting their packages (4 in total, this time) to our Sr. Management.  There’s a flurry of activity, questions, challenges, changes, and fine tuning.  Meetings start in [...]

Stupid Me


… Now I remember about the Photo Gallery (see previous blog).  Guess I’ll have to do some updating there – perhaps this weekend.  But, I still can’t seem to figure out how to embed a pic into the blog.  Even though I upload it all I get is a box with an “x” in it.  [...]
