My Husband Refers To Me as a Bulldog With a Pork Chop

Picture a bulldog with a porkchop. He won't let it go. He keeps at it with dogged (pardon the pun) determination until he gets what he wants.
That's what I do to some extent. I don't give up. I am assertive, sometimes aggressive, to get done what needs to be done.
Now this is a bad example, but I was given two gift cards from my health insurance company for exercising a certain number of days. One gift card redeemed just fine, one didn't. The one that didn't was a $10 value.
So I got on the help chat bot this morning with the health insurance company and they suggested I call the vendor for the gift card. The vendor was no help, so I went back to the chat bot and the health insurance company opened up a Help Ticket to look into the matter.
Now I realize that most people wouldn't have taken those two steps over $10, but $10 is $10 and it all adds up in the grand scheme of things.
Give me a project (like caretaking now for hubby's mother) and I'm all over it with both feet.

That sounds like my mom and sister. When we were switching insurance from State Farm to Farmers, State Farm overcharged my parents $20. My mom was transferred to three different people before she got a guy who actually said, “What’s the big deal? It’s just twenty dollars.” My mom responded, “But it’s MY twenty dollars!” And she got her money back.

$10 is worth it to me. They OWE you that $10 card. I can be relentless too...especially when it concerned my hubby.

I am like that sometimes, especially where money is concerned. If something is promised, it's promised.
