More importantly, we have a major question resolved today: Rosa is apparently Ellen's only sibling. (I figure Ellen's defense of mom as bearer of children, highlighted, would have mentioned others if there were any.) This means DAWN and Ellen's other unnamed neice are both Rosa's daughters, and her current pregnancy is #3 (at least).
I care substantially less about Dad's reason for declining to join Mensa, but if it really was in solidarity with his never-otherwise-respected wife then we can subtract one hatred point from his formidable hatred index here on ELLENWatch. Mrs. Barshevsky's weight is always going to be fair game, apparently, but at least he shrinks from institutionally-based denigration of her intelligence too.
Get it in WRITEING. Some could say that ifyou work for a reputeable company mabye you might not need a writing, BUT why chance it? I would get a letter from them directed both to you and TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN anyway’s, saying speacifeically that they will pay all billieng’s related to your work accident (let’s describe it as a slip and fall where you injured your back, with a contact person NAMED there that can be called for any follow up data.
This way, you can have the docs and the hospital’s and the PTs bill your employer directly. What is wrong with that? In WC cases, if you have an injuury issue that is covered, you should NOT pay yourselve’s, but should have the bill sent to the Employer’s insurance company. That is b/c you are NOT a cash register. Let those guy’s pay for injrueing you! FOOEY if they tell you otherwise.
My dad taught me that long before law school b/c he once fell on his tush outside an Arbeey’s or McDonald’s or something, and they did the same thing. My dad alway’s says: GET IT IN WRITEING, ELLEN” so I do. That is why MENSA wanted him, but he did NOT want them. He said FOOEY on any organisation that does not want MOM. I agree with him. Mom is also smart, but MENSA did NOT recruit her. She was smart enough to marry Dad and have me and Rosa, so she is the big winner there! Yay!
