Stitching up Some Loose Ends

Now that I've started, I have to collect my wits and try to remember which ends have been left loose! I know that one was my Tracfone. It turns out that once I recharged it with a 60 minute card, my phone still says I have  600 (or so) minutes on it which is good as they were the minutes that were paid for when the phone was purchased. It's just that after six months or so, I had to start regularly (quarterly) buying a phone card to keep it active.

I need to check to make sure that a new referral from my PCP was made, and fill out a new intake form, but it's not that. I remember all that. So what is it that I've forgotten? I think it is my cell phone! I need to add more minutes to my pay as you go Tracfone! Guess what! They expired on the seventh. That was four days ago. I went to renew them online, and...
