It's about time.

Many of you can relate to Working long hours at your career. Raising your families. Buying a home and paying all the bills related to being homeowners and parents. We're now retired and don't need all that work and expense. Now "It's about time" and what we do to follow our dreams.

Errands, Alzheimer Society and Lactose Intolerant.

Our Location today is Windsor, Ontario.

After spending only an Hour in my Recliner, I managed to spend the next Six Hours sleeping in Bed. When I got up, I noticed Puddles around the Parking Lot and on our Truck’s Tonneau Cover, where the birds were using it as a Birdbath. There was barely any Sunlight due to the heavy Cloud cover. It was all of 46 F (8 C) at the time.

Kathy woke up feeling tired, probably because she had taken her CPAP Mask off sometime during the night. That meant that her body did not fully regenerate the Oxygen Level in her Blood Stream. She would feel dragged out most of the day.

Having gotten things ready earlier, we were able to enjoy Blueberry Muffins and Yogurt Cups for breakfast. With our Coffees at our Computers, to help suppress our appetites, it was well past 1:00 when we stepped out to run our errands.

Our first stop was to Burger King to have a late lunch. Using a Coupon, we enjoyed their Crispy Chicken Sandwiches. We were just finishing up when I received a call from the Windsor Essex Alzheimer Society. If you recall last year, after the Neurologist diagnosed Kathy with the onset of Dementia, we had visited their office. Upset, Kathy argued that she did not need their help, but calmed down when I said that I did. They said that if they did not hear from us in Six Months, they would call us, and today was the day.

Since my cell phone does not want to work on Speaker mode lately so I was able to talk while sitting directly across from Kathy. Lorrie asked how things were going and if I needed any assistance at this time. When we got married in 2001, I made a vow to be with her through Sickness and Health, for Richer or Poorer, Till Death do us part, and plan to honour that as long as I can. Lorrie said that she would check back in another Six Months.

After finishing lunch, we made an unplanned stop at Canadian Tire, to pick up a few things that are only available at Canada’s Store.

We then headed to Guardian Storage to collect our Mail today since we were already out. Our Mailbox was full, and it included another Cheque from the Ontario Government. Why they send these Cheques every month for a total of $31.05, I have no idea, but after all the Taxes that I paid throughout my career, I will take anything they send me with a smile on my face. We stopped at the Credit Union, to add it to our account.

Next we went to Health First Pharmacy to pick up the Medications that the Doctor at the Pain Care Clinic prescribed.

When we got home, the first thing I did was to open our Balcony Door to cool the Apartment down. We had only worn our Denim Jackets but were sweating. The next thing I did was to check The Weather Network. We were shocked at what we saw so I checked the Radar to verify the results. When we had those warm days a couple of weeks ago, a Comment asked how that was possible. Today, at 3:30 in the afternoon showed, Windsor 73 F (23 C), Bayfield 54 F (12 C) and Collingwood 48 F (9 C). Quite a difference, all in Southern Ontario.

Since we ate lunch after 2:00, we had watched the “6 o’clock Local News” before we started thinking of eating. Since we had things that needed to be eaten, we had Frozen Yogurt Banana Splits for our supper. Something nobody had heard of when we were growing up as kids was, being Lactose Intolerant. After Self-Diagnosing myself, I conferred with my Family Doctor. He confirmed the findings and simply advised me to watch my Dairy Intake. I am feeling the results of tonight’s supper and am not hungry.

We will see what we can do tomorrow.

Thanks for following along and feel free to leave a comment, unless it personally attacks someone for their opinion, or is Spam.

Be Safe and Enjoy!

It’s about time.
