First, let me say, that my son is now covered by Medicaid so his injuries are now covered. I was so worried about how I was going to pay such a huge hospital bill. The hospital bill alone was $14,000. That didn't include follow up Dr visits or the anesthesiologist for his surgery. That was just the ER visit and use of the operating room! So needless to say, I was stressing bad! Like really bad. Not even chocolate would help. haha! After submitting our application for state and county assistance last Wednesday, I got a call from a case worker on Thursday and she said my son was approved for Medicaid retroactive back to April. So he's covered! I told her that she made my day and that if I could reach through the phone and give her a hug, I would. A huge boulder has been lifted from my shoulders!
So now that that bit of stress is gone, and we're actually gearing downward from all the "excitement" of the last 6 weeks, I felt I needed to treat myself.
At our new house, we don't have to haul water anymore. YES! So I can take a nice long hot bubble bath whenever I want! YES YES!! So I grabbed my candles and placed them around the bathroom while the tub filled up with hot water and fragrant bubbles. Ahhh, so nice! While in the bath, I gave myself a facial with a cucumber avocado mask and nighttime super moisturizer that helps keep your face looking young and beautiful. After the bath, I used some of my favorite scented lotion (that I made) and soaked my hands and feet in a paraffin bath. I topped it off with a manicure and pedicure. I felt like a million bucks when I went to bed last night.
Who says you have to go to an expensive hotel for the royal treatment?!
