Recently I was notified by my health insurance that I need to change my current insurance plan! Why?!?! Because they say so! I had to embark on a long journey of shopping around for another health plan. My time is very valuable just like everyone else.- We are really busy and spending time on the phone is – frankly frustrating- especially when it has to do with health insurance!

YOU COULD MAKE A MOVIE OUT OF MY LIFE Just like a good Santa Fean, I like to go gallery hopping occasionally.
