All I want for Christmas is to pay back my student loans. Instead I get a ton of medical bills. I just love how everyone waits until the last week of the year to send out bills. Thank you, Medical Billing Establishments, for procrastinating so thoroughly! I can't say that I'm surprised, but I can say that having a health savings account with a high deductible medical plan is a real P.I.T.A. when everything than can go wrong does. I budgeted for this by holding off on paying extra on my student loans. There's a difference between planning for unknown expenses and actually paying them when it comes time.
I will pay my medical bills with a forced grin: forced because the timing is lousy, and grinning because I should still be in one piece by the time my student loans are actually paid since I did not put off important dental surgery.
Merry Christmas!
