Your 2026 Coverage Plan Has Been Updated (View Changes)

Yes, that works for me—thanks for checking.
If you're asking about timing, I can be ready a little earlier if we keep it focused and share the outline first.
I'd suggest starting with the two main points, then leaving ten minutes at the end for questions so nothing gets rushed.
On the notes you mentioned: I can draft a quick summary, but I'll need you to confirm the names and the final order of topics.
Also, if we're splitting tasks, I'm fine taking the first part while you handle the wrap-up and next steps.
Let me know whether you want the tone to be formal or more conversational, and I'll match it.
Either way, I'll be available afterward if anything needs a quick revision.

What you'll find in the kit

 

• Digital oral thermometer

• Adhesive bandage assortment

• Non-stick sterile gauze pads

• Alcohol prep wipes (individually wrapped)

• Elastic support wrap (self-adhering)

 

Thanks for being part of BlueCross BlueShield. We appreciate you taking a moment to stay informed.

 

About the schedule you asked about, I can adjust as long as we keep the handoff simple.
If you send the draft list of topics, I'll mark what I can take and what needs a second set of eyes.
I'd also prefer we decide who is capturing the action items so we don't end up with two different versions.
For the materials, a single document is easiest; just add headings and I'll fill in the gaps.
If anything changes at the last minute, message me with the updated start time and I'll rearrange my calendar.
One more thing: if the group is larger than expected, we should leave space for follow-ups rather than squeezing everything into one block. = I was thinking the same thing. I will be back on the 29th and we can go over the reports then. Thank You Jake Balton

A note about your past Marriot stay

Hey are you going to the meeting later I think it's at three. Yeah I saw the calendar invite but I have that other call with the design team. Might need to shift things around. What's the agenda again Mostly just a review of the upcoming project timeline and resource allocation. Sounds straightforward but you know how these things can go. True. Did you finish the report for the client Almost done just need to add the summary section and run it by legal. They can be slow to respond sometimes. Tell me about it. I usually give them a two day buffer at minimum. Good idea. What are you working on after that Probably just clearing out my inbox it's gotten a bit out of hand. I try to do that every Friday but it never seems to stay manageable. I know the feeling. Maybe we can grab coffee after your call if you're free. Sure that works for me. The usual place Yeah the usual is fine. Great. I'll message you after the meeting then. Sounds good talk to you soon. Okay have a good one. You too. Oh wait before you go did you see the latest update to the shared drive folder Not yet what changed They finally organized everything by quarter instead of by project type. That makes so much more sense. It does. It took them long enough. Alright I'll check it out later. Cool. See you.

So I was thinking about what to make for dinner this week. It's always the same dilemma. I should really plan ahead more. Do you ever use a meal planning service I tried one for a few months but it ended up being too much food for one person. That makes sense. I usually just rotate through a few easy recipes. What's your go-to Probably a simple pasta dish with whatever vegetables are in the fridge. Quick and reliable. That's a good strategy. I've been trying to cook more fish but I never seem to get the timing right. It's easy to overcook. Yeah exactly. Maybe try a lower heat for a longer time I read that somewhere. I might experiment with that. How was your weekend

A thank-you gift because of your past Marriott stay

Hey I was thinking about that conference last month. The sessions were pretty engaging overall. Did you attend the one on sustainable design I missed it because I had a call scheduled. Oh that's too bad. It was really informative. They discussed materials and lifecycle assessments. Sounds interesting. I'll have to catch up on the notes. Yeah you should. The presenter shared some case studies that were eye opening. Like how small changes in procurement can make a big difference. I've been trying to apply some of those principles in my projects. It's not always easy though. Sometimes budgets or timelines get in the way. I know what you mean. But even incremental steps help. True. Have you seen the new office layout They moved the printers to a central location. It's more efficient I think. Saves time walking around. I haven't been in yet. I've been working remotely most days. Right. Well when you come in, check it out. The natural light in the common area is much better now. They opened up the blinds. Nice. Light makes such a difference in mood. Absolutely. I feel more productive when it's bright. Me too. We should plan a team lunch soon. Maybe next week. That would be good. It's been a while since we all connected in person. Agreed. Let me know what day works. Will do. Also, don't forget about the wellness workshop next Friday. It's optional but might be useful. Thanks for the reminder. I might join if I can clear my schedule. Cool. Talk to you later. Okay bye for now.

So I was telling my colleague about the hiking trail we found last weekend. It was really serene early in the morning. The birds were active and the air felt fresh. Yeah mornings are the best for that. I need to get out more often. Work has been keeping me busy. I hear you. It's important to take breaks though. For sure. Even a short walk can clear your head. Definitely. What other trails do you recommend There's one by the river that's fairly flat. Good for beginners. Nice. I might try that with my family. They'd enjoy it. How old are your kids now The youngest is seven and the oldest is twelve. They love exploring. That's a great age for outdoor activities. Yes they have so much energy. It's fun to channel it into nature walks. Absolutely. Have you ever done camping with them Not yet but we're planning a trip this summer. Just a weekend thing to start. That sounds perfect. Keep it simple. Exactly. I don't want to overwhelm them. Start with a campground that has facilities. Good idea. I'll look into that. Let me know if you need any gear recommendations. I have some tents and sleeping bags you could borrow. Thanks that's generous. I might take you up on that. No problem. It's good to share resources. Besides, gear shouldn't sit unused. True. Well let's sync up next week to discuss details. Sounds good. I'll send you a message. Cool. Also, have you seen the new community garden project I heard about it. They're looking for volunteers on weekends. I might join. It seems like a nice way to meet people and learn about gardening. Yeah I've been involved in similar projects before. It's very rewarding. You get to see things grow over time. That's the best part. The patience it teaches is valuable too. For sure. Okay I should get back to work. Talk soon. Yeah catch you later. Take care.

Your 2026 Coverage Plan Has Been Updated, View Changes

Yes, that timeline works for me, and I can cover the first part while you handle the wrap-up.

For the agenda, I'd keep it simple: quick status check, confirm who owns which tasks, then a short block for questions. If you send the draft list, I'll tighten the wording and make sure the steps read clearly in order.

On the notes you mentioned, I think the confusion came from two similar items being listed under different headings. I'll consolidate them and add one sentence explaining the difference so nobody talks past each other. Also, if you're okay with it, I'll add a small "next steps" section at the end so we don't leave without a clear handoff.

Share what time you prefer and I'll adjust.

2026 plan coverage information

Along with the kit, we're providing 2026 plan coverage details so you can review benefits and confirm what may be different for next year. This is informational and intended to help you plan ahead.

Thanks for being part of BlueCross BlueShield. Your feedback helps us keep these updates clear and useful.

I can take that on, and yes, it makes sense to keep the outline short so people can follow it quickly.

For the checklist you asked about, I'd group the steps by what happens first, what depends on someone else, and what can be done in parallel. That way, if something slips, it's obvious where it affects the rest. Also, I'd avoid adding extra labels unless they solve a real confusion; too many tags usually make it harder to scan.

On the scheduling question, I'm flexible, but mid-morning tends to work better because everyone is more responsive then. If you send two or three time windows, I'll confirm the one that fits and I'll bring a short summary so we don't spend the first ten minutes recapping. Let me know what you prefer. --------------- Thank You, Lisa Wayy

A thank you gift following your past Marriott stay

So I was thinking about what to do with the backyard this weekend. The weather is supposed to be nice. Maybe finally plant those perennials I got last month. I need to check if the soil is ready. Do you think it's too early. I feel like it's the right time. The neighbor said his started to come up already. I should probably just go for it. What are you up to this weekend. Anything fun planned. I might just relax after the gardening. A quiet evening sounds perfect. Maybe read that book that's been on the nightstand. It's been a while since I just sat and read. Do you have any recommendations for something light. I don't want anything too heavy. Just a good story. Something that doesn't require too much thinking. I heard there's a new bakery opening downtown. Might check it out on Saturday morning. See if their croissants are any good. A good croissant is hard to find around here. The last one I had was too doughy. Not flaky enough. It's all about the layers. Proper butter. Temperature control. It's a science really. I appreciate the craft. Anyway. Let me know if you want to join for a walk or something. Could be nice by the river. The path is usually clear this time of year. Might see some early birds. I'm not a great bird spotter but I like trying. It's peaceful. Have a good one. Talk soon.

Have you ever tried learning a new skill just for fun. I was thinking about pottery. It seems messy but satisfying. My friend does it and says it's very calming. Just focusing on the wheel. Your hands in the clay. I might look for a local class. Something on a weekday evening. It would be a good break from the usual routine. Do you have any hobbies like that. Something you do with your hands. I used to knit but I lost patience with it. Maybe I should pick it up again. It's good for cold nights. What else. I need to remember to call about that appointment. It's been on my list for a week. I keep forgetting. I should set a reminder on my phone. Right after this. The days just blend together sometimes. It's important to take a moment. To just breathe. Look out the window. The trees are starting to look green again. That's always nice to see. New beginnings and all that. Spring is a good time for new projects. Maybe I'll clean out the garage finally. That's a big project. Might take a whole weekend. Need to sort things into keep and donate. It's amazing what accumulates over time. Old things you forget you even have. Anyway, hope you're having a good week. Let's catch up properly soon. Maybe over coffee. I know a place with a nice outdoor patio. It should be warm enough. Talk to you then. All the best.

Update on 2026 Coverage: BlueCross insights

Yes, the meeting will begin at 11am tomorrow. I think only 5 of them can make it to th emeeting but we will see when they come back next week.

I can do that. Start by checking the meeting time and the room number, then confirm who else will be there. If the equipment list is incomplete, list the items you expect and I will add them to the shared agenda. I will bring the projector remote and extra batteries, and I can set up a short walkthrough of the slides before attendees arrive.
For the agenda, prioritize the updates that require decisions first, then leave time for questions. If you want, I will block an extra 10 minutes after the meeting to capture action items and assign owners. Let me know if we should invite anyone from support.

Hey, thanks for asking about the weekend plans. I was thinking we could finally check out that new hiking trail on the east side. The weather forecast looks promising, with clear skies and mild temperatures. Remember to bring sturdy shoes and maybe a light jacket since it might get breezy in the evening. I've packed some snacks and water, but we can stop by that cafe on the way back if you're up for it. Let me know if you have any preferences for the route or timing. Also, did you manage to finish that book you were reading I heard the sequel is coming out soon, and we could discuss it over coffee. It's been a while since we caught up properly, so looking forward to it. If anything changes, just shoot me a message. I'll be around after noon on Friday to finalize details.

So, about that project timeline you mentioned, I think we should aim to have the draft ready by next Wednesday. The client feedback was generally positive, but they want more examples in the appendix. I've asked the team to gather additional data points, which should be straightforward. Let's schedule a quick call on Monday to align on priorities. Also, don't forget to update the shared folder with the latest files. I noticed some discrepancies in the version numbers, so a quick check would help. If you need access to any resources, just let me know. I'll be out of office on Thursday for a training session, but available via email. Hope that works for everyone. Looking forward to wrapping this phase up smoothly.

Thank You, Larry Manzo
