Well let me
sum the week up:
Went out for gratitude banquet
celebrated by ourselves at Hilltop House, very nice. They had
remodeled since we were last there. Lots of nice cherry trim, new
tables and chairs. Husband hated the captain's chairs, he kept
smacking his elbow. We both determined that halibut was on the
menu. Delish! It came with pasta and veggies. The salad was rather
grand consisting of shrimp, pepperoni, pepperoncini, beans, pickled
carrots and pickled cucumbers, some greenery, house dressing honey
mustard. Oh and there was warm herbed Italian bread with a side of
olive oil and elderly vinegar. We splurged on dessert; carrot cake
which is as light as air and chocolate mouse (I don't think that is
the way the French spell it) which was not.
Went to see my care provider, BP is
still one hundred and stupid over stupid, so dropping the spendy BP
med to the similar yet much cheaper BP med as well as another one.
Check back and see if that worked at all. Drew some more blood for a
couple more tests. Had been researching potassium over the counter,
all sorts of warnings, side effects and ASK. YOUR. DOCTOR. FIRST.
Jeez. OK.
Trotted to pharmacy to pick up scrips,
did not have part D yet so they very nicely threw in the state
pharmacy discount and got it down to 29 bucks. Thanks.
Received notification from Medicare
that part B had kicked in and future deposits will reflect the
withholding of the premium. Crap! AND I can now sign up for part D
with the plan of my choice which will cost and extra X amount of
dollars. Crapola!
Note to self look for qualifications
for reverse mortgage. I bet we do not qualify.
Went to Bandon for Saturday noon
meeting, then scarpered off to The Station for eats. I ate from the
dainty appetite menu (HA!) and husband ordered veggie omelet. We
went home and that was that.
Tomorrow I make oatmeal,walnut
cookies...because...we ran out.
