After
a busy Birthday celebration last
night Kathy managed to get to bed while I was still doing my normal
shut down. I always clean up my Blog Template Document
so the following day it’s a simple matter to start writing. Once
that is done it’s just a matter of watching my Computer shut
down before giving Kathy another kiss on the forehead good night (I
do that every day) even though she was already asleep. I then got
between the sheets and slept soundly until morning. Unfortunately my
late night kisses rouse Kathy awake subconsciously thinking it must
be morning because that is sometimes the way that I wake her. It took
Kathy a couple Hours to fall back to sleep.
Our view most of the day. |
I
slept later then I wanted but immediately got things ready so we’d
be on the road early. Kathy joined me and at breakfast we figured out
that I was inadvertently waking her up. Many of the nights she has
been sleeping and been awakened was because of my affection. It’s
pretty bad when you have to ration something like that.
We
were nearly ready to head out the door when I thought to call our
Pharmacy in Amherstburg
to make certain they had gotten all our Medications
authorized. They had sent a FAX to the Doctor’s
Office on Monday but were still waiting for a reply.
I
called our Family Doctor’s Office
where I was told they had not received the FAX.
Another
call to the Pharmacy where I was
able to talk to Steve. Explaining the problem he said he would call
the Doctor’s Office personally.
We
had Baked Beans on Toast for lunch with another piece of
Kathy’s Birthday Cake for dessert.
When
I called the Pharmacy again it
was mentioned that there was a problem with the FAX at the
Doctor’s Office but our
Prescriptions were being put together. We were out the door
Five Minutes later.
We
had showers all the way to Amherstburg.
When we arrived at Pharma Care we
had to park and call that we were there. Minutes later our
Medications were brought out to us.
We
made a quick stop at the nearby Dollarama
since there was no lines like the ones in Windsor.
They made certain that everyone knew they were open with a sign in
the windows. After donning our Masks we followed the Arrows
on the floor taking our time so as to keep our Social Distance
from other patrons. We did find some food stocks that are better
priced then the grocery stores.
We
then stopped at Shoppers Drug Mart
so we could take advantage of their Thursday Seniors Savings.
Kathy stayed in the Car while I went in to only return with
Two of the items on our List. It seems that it took the
Coronavirus to make people
realize that Vitamins can help you fight off Viruses
that are affecting many others.
With
people staying home at this time has cause the Fifth Season to
start early this year. From the time we took to go to Amherstburg
we only made it back to Malden
Road and were detoured by Construction Barrels. We
drove the back way through the town of LaSalle
making note of how things have changed since we last took that route.
Long line ups outside the Liquor Stores. |
We
stopped at the Pioneer gas
station where I filled up on gas for $.799 a Litre. (It has
been lower lately.) Noticing a tire was a little low I went to use
their Air Pump. I remember when it used to be free then when
they charged a Quarter everyone complained. Imagine what I was
saying when I had to pay $1.50. I made certain all the tires
were up to pressure.
We
still had to stop at one more Shoppers Drug
Mart. There was only One Bottle of Vitamins on
their shelves and it was the one we needed.
While
I started getting things ready to do our Doucettes Kathy was
busy making Meatballs and Gravy on Egg Noodles for
supper along with the last of her Birthday Cake for dessert.
As
soon as 6 o’clock Local News
was over I took over our dining table to fill our Doucettes.
Since I normally do Forty-Five Days worth each time it felt
strange to only be doing Thirty Days worth. With the
Government trying to make certain everyone gets their
medications they have regulated all medications to a Thirty Day
supply. I had Planned (there’s that word again) on
having all this done before supper but due to the delay it was past
9:00,
Kathy
would like to Thank
everyone for their warm Birthday
Wishes
as
they were all appreciated.
Thank
you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.
Be
Safe and Enjoy!
It’s
about time.

ReplyDeleteI got a lot of reading to get caught up on. Weather isn't to bad. The wind sure has been a blowing. Suppose to be in 80s coming up will see.
You all take care and stay in touch

Ooooooohhhh CAKE! That certainly was a beautiful one. It's a good thing I stocked up on my vitamins some time ago. There's nothing on the shelves here now.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated Kathy. So gad that I am allowed to post today. I think that shortages go in waves. I suspect that for meat eaters there may be a shortage in the near future.
