FORMS, FORMS AND MORE FORMS
It seems that is what insurance companies and other agencies do well—produce forms. Various companies and agencies have sent me forms to complete. I have completed them, mailed them back, expecting the insurance companies to pay on the policies we for which we have paid premiums for a long time. What do I get back in the mail? More forms to complete and send back! At least I’m a good “form completer” (if there is such a word!)
I did some checking by telephone today. There is the expectation—based on information I received today—that I may get something in the mail besides more forms. I am sure the Funeral Home would appreciate some money as my bill there is still outstanding.
I’ve taken these past two days off work just to catch up on errands and tasks that need to be completed. It has been a good two days. I have accomplished a lot, including a trip to my area Social Security office to order a replacement social security card. I haven’t been able to find mine for quite a while. That experience went very well. In fact, through all this maze of forms, paperwork and phone calls, the Social Security Administration is the only agency that hasn’t stiff-armed me. They did everything they said they would in a very timely manner. They even returned the original documents I was required to send to them. Unbelievable! Now I speak a good word for the Social Security offices with whom I have had to deal.
I think I’m about ready to go to St. Louis to visit friends this weekend. They are going to Ireland for maybe three years because of his work. It should be fun to hang out with them if I can find my way around or through St. Louis.
My thanks to all who read this.
