It's about time.

Her Friends Are Back.

Our Location today is Windsor, Ontario.

This has almost become a common cycle of good and bad nights sleeping. After Two good, hopefully last night was the One bad. It was another back and forth night for me, which meant that even though Kathy had taken her pill against Restless Leg Syndrome, she woke up wondering why her nighttime friends had called an Ambulance. ????

Having noticed that a Hurricane had been ungraded to a Category 4, just as I was about to shut down for the night, had me checking the Radar more thoroughly. I was amazed that the previous storm had just gone just north the Hawaiian Islands and this though stronger will trek just a touch further away. The rest of my night was between my Recliner and Bed.

I was in the process of getting a breakfast snack ready when Kathy came out asking that question. It felt like a slap in the face because her friends had disappeared when she started with those pills.

With our Coffees at our Computers after checking the forecast for today, I then checked my E-mail to see my Amazon Package had been delivered. That meant we were going for a ride, but first I started cooking up lunch. First I cubed the remaining Hotdogs into the Frying Pan, then added Brown Sugar to the Baked Beans heating in a Sauce Pan. Once the Toast popped and everything was assembled, we were ready to eat. It was tasty and filling.

With the Humidex already feeling like 102 F (39 C), Kathy waited by the rear entrance while I got the Car.

Our first destination was Guardian Storage for Two Reasons. The first was to collect my Amazon package and the second was to straighten out the Mess their accounting had created. They started charging my account every Twenty-Eight Days rather than once a Month that was originally agreed upon. That results in paying twice a month once a Year. If you are on a fixed income, that puts you in overdraft fast.

After getting that straightened up, Kathy was curious why I was putting a box the size of a Toaster in the backseat. Saying it was for the Truck, we headed to Windsor Gas and Diesel to drop it off. I was shocked when Jim opened the package to find another box, the size of a Coffee Mug. The component inside would fit in a Tea Cup, but it will stop Kathy from driving off by herself.

We wanted to do some walking exercise and since we did Walmart last, today we walked around the Zehr’s grocery store. Unfortunately when we found a parking spot close to the door, by the time Kathy got inside, she could hardly breathe, until the Air Conditioned Air helped her out. Fruits and Vegetables have not been this low priced in months and we could even afford a container of Frozen Yogurt that was double the price last week.

Kathy had the same breathing problem getting in the Car, so when I offered to drop her at the front entrance to our building she didn’t object. I used our Folding Two-Wheeled Shopping-Cart to bring everything upstairs. The AC felt good but by the time everything was put away, the moment I sat down my eyes slammed shut. I woke over an Hour later. Kathy said I probably needed it, but it cut into my prep time for supper. That will now be tomorrow night’s supper and we shared a Store-Bought Thin-Crust Medium Chicken Pizza for tonight.

Our granddaughter Kylla called to see how we were doing, but her Phone kept on crackling so bad that we could hardly make out everything she was saying.

On the “6 o’clock Local Newsthere was plenty happening in the County, but the biggest thing was the grand opening of the Gordie Howe International Bridge to the public. As a ceremonial jester his grandson Gordie Howe and his wife were the first to drive across, followed by a gentleman with his grandsons in a 1925 Ford Model “T”. From there it was free flowing traffic. The Ambassador Bridge will still be in use, but we have needed a third International Crossing for a long time.

We watched more Documentaries on “WWII”. It looks like this will continue through the Cold War Era.

With bad weather heading our way, we already have Plans made.
