$282

Bad news: That was the price of the urgent care visit I made in January, when adult-onset allergies (which I'd not known I had) knocked me out for a good week. I received the official bill today. Of course, my ultra-basic insurance plan did not cover it.

Good news: We will be able to pay for it immediately with real money - not the credit card. I'm not sure if we will have enough in our checking account, but if not, we can pull some over from our savings account. I hate touching the savings account, but it's much, much better than the alternative, which is what we would have had to do a year ago when we had almost no savings whatsoever.

The bill doesn't make me happy, but this sign of progress sure does.
