Punting my office job for the freedom of freelance copywriting was the best decision I ever made. However, one scary aspect of that leap was leaving behind the health insurance my employer provided.
It turns out you CAN get good coverage at a reasonable cost. In fact, our family will save over $3,000 per year with our new individual plan.

Sorry about any repeats you might be seeing in your feeds. I was away for a few weeks and the site was hacked. I had a partial backup, but unfortunately, I had to upgrade WordPress as well when I restored and there seem to be a few things that just don’t work the same. Let’s not mention what I consider to be a rather confusing redesign of the administrative interface! Hope to have things working normally by the end of the week. Thanks for your patience!
