Being
that I had so little sleep the night before it shocked Kathy that I
had turned my Computer off before she did last night. We both
fell asleep fairly quickly but by 2:30 I was tossing around and
accidentally unfastened the straps on my CPAP Mask. Taking it
to the other room I managed to get it reset within Ten Minutes and
headed back to bed. Next thing I knew it was minutes after 8:00 and
Time to start my day.
It
was nearly 9:00 when Kathy joined me for breakfast. As soon as we
were done I tried making a call to my aunt Anna to wish her a Happy
81st
Birthday but the phone just kept ringing. With no
Answering Machine to take a message I finally hung up after
Three Minutes thinking of calling back this evening.
We
had our Coffee/Tea at the Computers and got our morning
reading and chores finished before I made another call. This one was
to our Family Doctor. It took a few minutes before Lisa
answered and I explained the problem. She took the phone number and
would have the Doctor call me back. Fifteen Minutes
later George called and when I explained the problem he suggested a
Chest X-ray at Clear Imagining.
He mentioned he would FAX the Script to them and if I
had it done today we could have the results for tomorrow.
While
I finished getting ready Kathy started making the Split Pea Soup
for our lunch along with Cookies, Yogurt Cups and
Orange we shared for our dessert.
Moments
later we were heading down Riverside Drive.
We actually remembered to bring the Camera today so Kathy was
able to get some Pictures showing how wonderful our weather
was.

Since
Medical Services are just starting to open up here in Ontario
they only want the patient inside to make it easier to Social
Distance so Kathy stayed in the Car to read a book she
brought along. Inside Clear Imagining after
disinfecting my hands and answering questions I was told to have a
seat. The seats along the window were facing the windows to render
them useless. The remainder of the seats had every other one Taped
Off with a message about Social Distancing.
After
a Half Hour passed and a number of others that came in after
me were called in I was called back to the Desk. There was no
FAX from the Doctor. Using my Cell
Phone I got the message that at this Time the
office is only open until Noon. The Time was
1:45. I’ll have to call again in the morning. This is not the first
time that the Doctor’s FAX Machine has caused us problems
and I’ll be saying that when I speak to them.
The Maze runs from the Front entrance past the shed on the right then back to the entrance. You exit from the Garden Section or the Contractors Door. |
Taking
a leisurely drive back up Tecumseh Road
we stopped at Home Depot to pick
up a bag of Potting Soil. Even though there was no one in line
ahead of us we still had to walk the Two Hundred Foot Maze
that provides Social Distancing to get in the front door then
sanitize our Hands. Heading to the Garden Center it was
easy to find what we wanted before getting in the long line to pay
for our $3.00 Potting Soil. It took over a Half Hour for
something so easy.
Kathy
reminded me of the Floor Mat that we needed to get from our
Storage Unit and to check the Mail. Checking the Mail
at Guardian Storage only our CAA
Magazine had arrived. Driving back to our Storage Unit
Kathy was amazed when I rolled up the door then removed the Mat
she wanted without stepping foot in the Unit.
We
headed over to Motor City Community Credit
Union so I could get some Laundry Coins.
Inside the Foyer the second door was locked but there was a
sign that was not there the last time I was stating their new
Temporary Hours 10am – 3pm. The Time was 3:10.
Being
a little put out with not having gotten the X-rays or Coins
it wasn’t until we were upstairs in the Apartment
that I realized that I had forgotten the Potting Soil and Mat
in the Car. All this Time on our hands is not helping.
For
supper Kathy made Pancakes
covered with Mixed
Fruit
as a topping. On the 6
o’clock Local News
they reported a few more deaths in our area due to the Coronavirus.
Looking at another busy day tomorrow. Thank
you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.
Be
Safe and Enjoy!
It’s
about time.

I’d
like to make a joke about sodium, but Na.
I can empathize with you regarding orders from the doctor going haywire but at least in my case they can not blame the fax line for it...just plain incompetence!
ReplyDeleteYour pancakes look delicious!
I'm surprised they don't send info via email ... it's much faster than faxing. Yup those pancakes look mighty tasty!!
ReplyDeleteHope everything is ok with you! What a shame the orders weren't there..uhhhh.. Love the pancakes!
ReplyDeleteFaxing is a pain in the neck, seems they never get to where they're supposed to be. Like Nancy said why not e-mail?
ReplyDeleteIts frustrating when little curve balls throw off your day. Damn virus.
ReplyDeleteIn these troubled times, I really think that making you wait so long to discover that you were not actually booked is beyond acceptable. I guess with all the changes it will take time to get it right, but meanwhile people like you are suffering.
