Dancing, Dancing, Yes, Indeed!

I'm dancing around tonight, my friends.  Dancing, dancing, yes, indeed!

Today, finally, FINALLY, the refund from Albuquerque arrived.  I am relieved that this mess can at last come to a conclusion.  However, what is quite odd and astonishing and amusing is that another check came in the mail today too!

I was delighted to see that the check I had been waiting for arrived today.  I was quite surprised to open a second letter that came from my mother's health insurance company that she had PRIOR to the health insurance company I had been waiting for the refund from.  It seems that an audit was recently done on their records, and they discovered that my mother was owed a refund from them also!!  I wasn't even aware that this other refund was owed to her!  

I am wondering if all the noise that I've made in the last few months finally was noticed and got someone at the Social Security Office or with Medicare checking some records, or if this was just an amazing coincidence that her prior health insurance company was audited and that they issued a refund to her account.  

In any case, both of these checks arrived today, and now I can close out my mother's estate account.  This is a weight off of my shoulders and you probably heard my sigh of relief from where you are sitting.

So as Paul McCartney says in his song, "You can come on to my place if you want to" because I'm definitely going to be "dancing around tonight," and I'd love to have you join me.   I can dance alone, of course, but it would be much more fun to dance with my friends.

(To those who have been readers here a LONG time, yes, I have had this song posted on this blog before. Twice, I think!  It fits perfectly with how I feel tonight, so I'm posting it again.  I hope you won't mind.)

Betsy from Tennessee said...

Your perseverance paid off, Daisy... I'm proud of you.. BUT--it worries me to read so much about how poorly some (most) of our Govt. agencies are run.. Kinda scary!!!

Dance your heart out, Girl. You deserve it!
Hugs,
Betsy

You more than deserved that "bonus" check after all you've been through with this whole ordeal.
I wish I was there to do a jig with you. Or maybe that sort of line dance we used to do to "I Heard it Through the Grapevine".
I bet you're too young to remember that though!!

♥Kathy♥ said...

Glad to hear things are working out with you Daisy. =)

Daisy said...

Thank you, Dorothy! It's a cheery little song, isn't it. Listening to it makes me want to kick up my heels. :)

Thanks, Betsy. :-) It does make me stop and wonder what else may have been bungled and mis-managed!

Kimberly, I remember the Grapevine song. :-) Thanks for dancing the jig with me!

Hi Kathy! Good to see you! Thank you. :-)

Jannie, I was happy with the one, but the other was an unexpected bonus! :D

Beatrice P. Boyd said...

Daisy, that's really something to celebrate and playing Sir Paul's song again is fine with me, a lifelong fan.

ladydi said...

Woo-hoo!

Daisy said...

Beatrice, I'm a big fan of his too! :D

Hi Diana! Thanks for the cheer! :D

Cary said...

Ha! Love it. Glad it all worked out, and even better than you expected. I'm sure that is a load off your mind. Little things like that prevent us from--and I hate this word, but--closure.

Eggs In My Pocket said...

Bless your heart, I am so glad it has come through! blessings,Kathleen

Daisy said...

Thank you, Cary! I'm not a big fan of that word either, but you're right, it will be good for me to be able to bring this to an end. It's been wearing me down dealing with this. I'm quite relieved. =)

Thank you, Kathleen! :)

Ryan said...

Daisy said...

Thank you, Ryan. Yes! I agree. I dance by myself a lot too. ha! :-)

Cassie, you have good ears! haha! I am always happy to dance with you. Thank you for your kind words. Hugs to you my friend. :)

Carol............. said...

That's great, Daisy! Woo-hoo!

Daisy said...

Thank you, Carol. :-) I have an appointment with the lawyer tonight, so I can finalize things then. I'm ready to move on.
