We
were both up around 8:00 so that we would have a few minutes to
relax. That’s right we just got up from a good night’s sleep and
we needed to relax. After eating breakfast we took our Coffee/Tea
over to the Computers to check what was happening around us.
It felt wonderful not to be struggling to get On-Line using
our High Speed Internet compared to our restricted Verizon
MiFi. The Verizon package we
have says it can be used in Canada
or Mexico but what they don’t
tell you is that it is slowed down to where we can barely connect to
things we need to here in Canada.
While
we sat at the Computers Mary from Healthy
Heals called. She was off yesterday and was just getting
caught up on her Phone Messages. After welcoming us back Home
she scheduled Kathy’s next appointment.
Cloudy all day. |
I
took a Few Minutes to call the Union
Hall to see if the Proposed Cuts by our Premier
to our Out Of Province Coverage would affect our Winter
Travels. Leaving a Voice Mail for the Benefits
Representative I could only hope that he would get back to me
today.
After
getting our inside chores finished we raided the Fridge of a
few Leftovers for an early lunch. We finished the Leftover
Celery Root along with the Leftover Jell-O topped off by
the Leftover Cool Whip. Even though we still have other
Leftovers to be eaten that created an empty space in our
Fridge.
We
were out the door by 11:30 heading towards Tecumseh.
The first stop we did was to stop at the Pioneer
gas station on Manning Road.
We’ve put a lot of Miles on the Car since picking it
up at our son Kevin’s house. By using my Points Card each
time we get Gas or Diesel at Pioneer
when I went inside to pay for our Purchase I was pleasantly
surprise that it was completely “Free”.
We
headed up Lesperance Road until we
arrived at the Hearing Life
building the former Listen Up.
Kathy had her hearing tested in 2016 but noticed that it has gotten
worse lately. Today she was retested and the change was considerable.
Luckily with the Health Care Coverage that we have there will
be no out of pocket expense for us. We’ll be picking up her new
Hearing Aids soon.
While
Kathy was talking with Becky the Audiologist Dan the Union’s
Benefit Representative called. The proposed changes in the Out
of Province Coverage might affect many Ontarians from
going south but the Coverage we have through our contract with
Ford will cover that cost. Kathy
saw the smile on my face and knew then that we would be able to
continue going south for some years to come.
From
there we stopped at the Tecumseh Post Office
to get a couple of Stamps. I remember when Three Cent
Stamps were thought to be Highway Robbery. Two Stamps
today cost $2.59. No wonder more people use E-Mail.
We
stopped at Guardian Storage to
get our Mail and Carol asked if Kathy was feeling better.
Having just finished the last of the Antibiotics today she is
feeling much better.
After
leaving there we took the E.C. Rowe
Expressway across Windsor and
exited at Dominion Blvd. We drove
all the way to Riverside Drive
until we arrived at the Devonshire
Retirement Home. We spent the next Three
Hours visiting with my aunt Anna who lost her husband of 49
Years Bob just before Christmas.
She is slowly recovering and has accepted that he is no longer
suffering.
Caught
in the grips of Rush Hour when we left we stopped at Wendy’s
for supper. Kathy had her Full Sized Apple Pecan Salad while I
had my Spicy Chicken Sandwich with Chili rather then
Fries. We took our time as we watched the
Traffic Chaos through the Windows.
We
made a stop at Michaels on Walker
Road to get some Studded Buttons for a Jacket repair.
We hadn’t walked in that store for a long time but in our former
lives we knew it well.
We
drove across to Canadian Tire to
purchase some Silicon Sealer. When we took the Roof Fabric
off our Gazebo last fall it showed signs of wear after only
One Season. By sealing the Fabric it
should give us many more years of use.
It
started Raining before we arrived Home
at 7:30. While enjoying a nice hot cup of Coffee we watched
the movie “Jack Ryan Shadow Recruit” starring Chris Pine
and Kevin Costner. It kept us on the edge of our seats.
Looking
at tomorrow’s weather forecast we are glad we made yesterday our
Moving
Day.
Tomorrow is forecasted for Rain
all day along with Winds
gusting to 35
MPH.
Not sure what we’ll be doing but we’ll find something. Thank
you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.
Be
Safe and Enjoy!
It’s
about time.

Another busy day for you and Kathy. Hope you don't have anything to do tomorrow if it isn't a good weather day
ReplyDeleteIt costs about 55 cents to mail a letter here. That's why I've taken to paying all my bills online, which is probably why the price keeps going up!! LOL
ReplyDeletewow..that is expensive for stamps! I agree with Nancy, we pay our bills online and very rarely have to use the post office :) That was a busy day you two had once again. I'm sure Aunt Anna was very glad to see you two!
ReplyDeleteWe pay our bills online, also. Just easier then mailing.
ReplyDeleteGlad to read you are in your summer spot.
Another full day for you. Can you please explain what the proposed out of province coverage is all about and how it will affect Ontarians heading south?
ReplyDeleteThere will be no coverage. You have to buy your own.
DeleteHaving had some of the worst Internet service providers in this part of Texas, it is easy to appreciate when you finally get good, efficient but more importantly fast service.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you were able to visit your Aunt Anna and I am sure she appreciated your presence as well. When dad was in a nursing home there were so few residents whose families made an effort to go see them.
Nice that Kathy is feeling much better. You both take care.
