Watch out for the holiday turkeys🦃😆❤️

Pre Thanksgiving Greetings 🦃 …

We hope your favorite football team is winning (sorry Dave😞🏈), and your Medicare Insurance Coverage is not driving you bananas🍌.

Quantz and Miti will be heading east for the holiday to spend time with family (and for Miti to see a bit more of the US). Before they left we took her to the Botanical Garden.

While they toured the grounds and took a wreath making class, I set up in the coffee shop and did my best to catch up with people who are still needing reviews.

One of the biggest changes in Medicare for 2025 is that almost all drug plans have stopped allowing brokers to enroll clients in Part D drug plans.

Of course we are still reviewing drug plans for existing clients and making recommendations, but this change is frustrating for us and for clients.

I guess it is just a dog eat dog world, right Plato?

The good news is that it is relatively easy to log into Medicare.gov and review your Medications to see if your plan is appropriate. If it proves too complicated, and you are an existing client, please don’t worry, just email Gray a request with the names of your drugs and your current plan and we’ll still do the review for you.

Thanks to Carol and so many of you for your referrals and your Google reviews.

Even though our honey harvest was much smaller this year, we are still sending it out to loyal followers who either give us a review on Google, or refer new clients. Help us reach 400 Google Reviews.

These bears sure like Florida.

Miti has been helping us label and send so if you haven’t received yours, and we promised you some, please let us know.

Plato told Julius it was okay to share the honey with his friends, but he’s pretty sure they’d prefer bones, just saying!

So as we prepare for the holidays, try to spend time with the people you love❤️ (like Q’s elementary school pal Elaine). And…

Do your best to tolerate the turkeys🦃😂. We only have only life, put your energy where it counts.

Keep squeezing the juice🍊 out of life and look for ways to help others.

If family or friends need help… referrals are the lifeblood of my business.
