Holidays.. stressful enough not including things going wrong at every turn, right? So check this out- on the 23rd I had my truck all filled up to head to my uncle's place for dinner and celebrations. My car was out on the side of the street in front of my house. I ran back in the house to grab the potatoes I was bringing to the party. I joke you not, in the time it took me to grab them and lock my front door a branch snapped off the tree in the front yard and ruined my windshield. Talk about serious timing, eh? Luckily I remembered this article on <b><a href="http://ronniejsnider.livejournal.com/359.html" rel="nofollow">windshield repair</a></b> I read online a few weeks ago that pointed me towards a mobile windshield repair place. They hooked me up! They drove out the same day to my uncle's apartment and repaired my windshield while we ate dinner, it was great. I was so stoked that I just wanted to give them a shout out. Peace! Yo!

We are one of the states that can't use NASE. Small businesses can't join any type of "group" to get the group rate. And when I go on e-insurance type websites to look for rates they make you type in your zip code. Once that happens I don't get any rates lower than $780/month for my family. Right now we don't have any insurance because we were paying $1350/month for a PPO that had large deductibles and we just can't afford it anymore. Right now I just want to try and get my kids insured. Any ideas for New Jersey residents?? Imagine living in States like New Jersey where I live. We are one of the states that can’t use NASE.

I decided to go ahead and leave my job. Couldn't take all the money going down the drain + them not letting me keep a second job which had nothing to do with the industry :( Obama has something for a discounted COBRA plan apparently, which to me means from $700+/mo to $300/mo for both my husband and I which I think we can brave.. but first to see if I qualify *crosses fingers* Last time we used the County's medical benefit program they took two large tumors out of my husband's shoulder while he was awake, and then suggested he didn't need more MRIs. We never want to go through with that ever again. Well. I decided to go ahead and leave my job.

I applied with every insurer licensed in my state and was declined by all (as well as the NASE). I left the USA and have not looked back... except that I'd like to be able to live in my own country again one day. I now have full coverage for my wife and I at $200/mo which is valid everywhere in the world except the USA. I became self-employed though no choice of my own (company closed) in 2001.
