With all the election noise this isn’t getting the attention it usually does. You still have plenty of time !!

Thanks - I dealt with this almost immediately, because I find the system terrifying and difficult to navigate.\* The last thing I need to be doing is signing up (again! - I hate that I have to re-do it again each year) at the last minute and stressing out. I was in the warm embrace of my husband’s employer’s health insurance until my divorce, coupled with having access to world-class health care at affordable prices in Singapore - the reality of American healthcare has been a huge and unpleasant shock for me.

\*My particular, stupid boring stories: never mind. I started to explain the Byzantine problems I had last year and this year, but the details are beyond soporific. Suffice it to say that I am not overly stupid, and I find the process scary and difficult. How the hell do people who are less literate manage? I can’t imagine.
