Grr! and Grr!

 





Yet again I am fighting my Heart Doctor's Office  (or a Computer?) over a scrip which they will not automatically renew via my Pharmacy.

Their word is that all my scrips were deleted in Oct 2022.  That's baloney since I saw the real, live, breathing Doctor last month.

I called the office this morning three times during ninety minutes, but each time got the overnight recorded message  (long after opening time).  I finally got through to an answering machine and pleaded for the essential scrip to be renewed; I have only six pills left).

The answering machine was stern:  "Do not call us again.  We will not call you.  Your pharmacy will call you within 48 hours  if this prescription has been renewed"  Oh Yeah?


I was scheduled for a City of Sarasota inspection of my new windows today; sometime between 8:00 a.m.  and 5:00 p.m.  I was glued to the house; to no avail.

I phoned the business manager of my window contractor  (she is his wife "M")  to ask  "what goes?"

M checked her computer records,  (and God bless her) her written notes on my office folder.

Yes, we had agreed on a date for the inspection.  Yes, she had telephoned the City Dept. to set the date.

But?    Evidently the City employee had not followed through and had not scheduled the date.

C'est la vie.  M,  (who apologised too much for what was not her mistake!) will 'phone the City Dept. and set another inspection date.
  
Given the choice I'd much rather talk with M. than "obey" an answering machine at my Heart Doctor's Office.

  80 years equals family Fifty plus of us. My five remaining sibs and their spouses. Nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews. Cousins, second cousins, third cousins A joyful and relaxed family reunion. Super food. Great food for children with activities for them too, including face painting. This 80-year-old child wore a birthday coronet and insisted on having his face painted. A marvelous family reunion; and the greatest celebration of my four score years.

Not the best of days HELP! A mistake and a fall.

  I arrived in time for my 8:50 appointment with my Dermatologist.   The Receptionist told me that I did not have an appointment.  She checked the records and told me that my appointment is for Tuesday. I knew that.  Then the light dawned.  Up until that moment I had thought that it was Tuesday, not Monday. You'd think that calendars had not been invented! It got worse. I took Cooper for an early pee walk this afternoon.  He lifted his leg to cue. Then he took a strong and mad dash towards a Squirrel.  I fell down.  And great was my fall. Lots of scrapes.  No bones broken. Pictures not in order. Excuse duplicates. No sympathy please - I was foolish. Fortunately, I had an arm bandage to sop up the blood. It looks worse than it is. BUT  1.  I was foolish in two ways. First, I had taken Cooper on a short leash.  I'd have had more control with the double handled long leash. 2. When he made his mad dash, I should have dropped ...
