It seemed that I was back on the roller-coaster when I went to bed last night, so I tried look at what could be the cause. While I was still working, I noticed that if I went to bed too early, I had difficulty sleeping but managed to be wide awake before the Alarm would wake me up. Last night, I was tilted back in my Recliner by Midnight (12:00 EST) or 1:00 DST causing me to be awake by 7:30 EST or 8:30 DST. It seems that my Sleep Time has not changed, which is also causing the roller-coaster affect.

We had eaten our breakfast snack and were just sitting down with our Coffees at the Computers by 9:00. That was the perfect time for me to call the Physiotherapy Clinic that the Doctor from the Pain Clinic had made a Referral for me. This Physio Clinic, does not except OHIP for coverage and charges a Consultation Fee for the first visit. (Money Grab!) Our Canadian Health Care has been changing over the last few years and not for the better. It was the Physiotherapist himself that answered the phone and wasn't happy when I told him that I could not afford to visit him. He also tried to tell me that there were no Physio Clinics in the City that accepted OHIP. He didn't answer when I told him differently.

Not wanting to stay put, we waited until 1:00 before going to Tim Horton's to have a late lunch. We were so impressed with their Crispy Chicken Wraps on our last visit, that we wanted to try them again. We were surprised that it also came in the Grilled version. Both were tasty but the Grilled is heathier. We took our time and even saw the Building Maintenance Man John stop for a late lunch. The Management Company that bought our building, bought Twelve in the city of Windsor. This way the Managers and Maintenance Personal are used in multiple buildings.

We then headed over to the Credit Union so that I could deposit a Cheque sent by our Provincial Government. Of course, the place was packed with only Two Tellers, but they kept the line moving.

With bad weather heading our way later this week, we went Mall Walking at the Tecumseh Mall. It's not the smallest in the City, but it is smaller than the Devonshire Mall. The main objective was just to get some walking exercise, but we also went in a few stores. The first was Dollarama to get some Cough Drops and Christmas Napkins. We also stopped at a Clothing Store to look around for women's clothes. Kathy always says she needs clothes but won't buy them when she finds them. All their Spring, Summer and Fall clothes were "On Sale". She settled for a single pair of Pants.

We finally headed for home and were surprised how the Wind had picked up. I dropped Kathy at the front entrance while I parked the Car. It felt good to sit down, but my eyes immediately shut. It was nearly a Half Hour before they reopened.

We watched the "6 o'clock Local News" before having Perogies for supper. They are easy to cook and fill you up for the night. The Wind is getting stronger, with Rain starting tomorrow, the Temperatures are dropping with nighttime lows below the Freezing Mark, bringing Flurries early next week. Rather not be here.

We watched a couple episodes of "Mayday" this evening.

I decided to sell my vacuum cleaner.

They Finally Called Back and More Pains.

I guess after feeling tired for so long, finally paid off last night. I nearly spent Two Hours in my Recliner, before finishing the night off in Bed. Of course, I woke in Pain because I was laying on my Right Hip. I was told that it would bother me for some time after the Surgery, but it hadn't bothered me in some time.

I nearly had things ready to start cooking breakfast, when Kathy came out to join me. That gave her the chance to check "The Weather Netwiork". Our temperature had not gotten as cold as Sunday Night. It also showed that besides the Rain we will get later this coming week, Friday could bring some Flurries our way.

Kathy enjoyed her Chocolate/Banana Pancake for breakfast, while I made my Banana Pancake. By using Cinnamin really upped the flavour.

Even though I had called my extended Health Care Provider yesterday, when the recording said there was a Three Hour wait to speak to a representative, I opted for them to recall me back. They finally called me after 10:00 this morning, then transferred me Twice before someone was able to answer my one simple question. With everything else going on today, I forgot to call the Physiotherapy Center back, that will not accept OHIP for payment. I'll have to call them tomorrow.

When it came time to have a late lunch, we settled on having Chicken Noodle Soup with Cookies for dessert.

Though the temperature did reach 61 F (16 C), the 39 MPH Wind Gusts kept us inside. Looking down on the Ganatchio Trail, everyone using it for exercise were wearing Hoodies that were pulled over their heads. We'll do our walking indoors tomorrow.

Our daughter Karen called to see how we were doing. Since she has Hands-Free built into her car, it makes it easy to do that, while driving home from work. Having been in a Severe Traffic Accident in 2014, she has been able to tell me the better Doctors and Therapy Centers to help me better recovery. Thank You Karen!

It wasn't until after we watched the "6 o'clock Local News" that we shared a Store-Bought Thin-Crust Medium Hawaiin Pizza with Extra Pineapple and Mozzarella Cheese. Shortly after we watched a "Murder Mystery" for entertainment.

This has not happen in a long time, but as I write the Blog, my Right Shoulder (the one I injured back in March) is really hurting so I'll be taking an Extra Strength Tylenol before tilting back in my Recliner.

Tough Night, Package and Long Freight.

Though it wasn't perfect, I did manage to get a restful sleep last night. Unfortunately, that One Hour difference kept trying to knock me down and put me to sleep throughout the day. The only defence I had was to constantly keep moving, which is very difficult when trying to read Blogs on the Computer.

Starting my day was basically at the same time as it had been for the last few weeks, the only difference was the Clock displaying 7:30 Eastern Standard Time rather than 8:30 Daylight Saving Time. For Kathy, it didn't matter immediately, because she was tired to start with, she did not come out to join me until 8:35 EST.

Breakfast was again a snack of Cookies and Yogurt Cups before taking our Coffees back to the Computers. It was then, that I found a few Spelling Mistakes in last night's Blog but was interrupted before I could correct them. It wasn't until I was in the process of writing today's Blog that I finally made those corrections.

I mentioned yesterday about calling the Physiotherapy Clinic about having to pay for treatment "Out of Pocket". When I asked, their answer was if I have Extended Health Coverage, they would bill them directly, but they don't except OHIP. I have great Out of Province (Country) medical coverage, but since I am older than 65, Physiotherapy is only covered under our Provincial Health Care. Looks like I'll be finding someplace else to go.

It was nearly 1:30 when we headed out. We needed to pick up a few things for the Pantry, like Brown Sugar, but first we went to Mary Brown's for lunch. On Monday they have the Monday Mary Chicken Sandwich on special. Same sandwich, just $3.00 off. It melted in our mouths.

Leaving there, we drove to the other end of the parking lot to Dollarama. They had all the Brown Sugar, Breakfast Snacks and Juice that we needed.

It was still to early to head back for home and since we had forgotten to collect our Mail last Saturday, we headed to Guardian Storage to do exactly that. Melissa was on the phone, but the moment she saw me, she waved the Amazon Package that I had only ordered yesterday. My Jacket has Huge Inside Pockets, so Kathy only saw the Mail that I presented to her.

Finally heading for home, we managed to get stopped by a slow-moving Freight Train that had been parked on a side rail. We were entertained by some of the Graffiti Art that was painted on some of the Cars. Just as it was about to clear the crossing, it came to a stop. A minute later, our Twenty Minute rest came to an end.

We enjoyed a Homemade Salad just as the "6 o'clock Local News" was starting. It may be a Week away, but there is a very good chance that we may see some Sxxw by then.

We watched a couple episodes of "Forensic Files" this evening. Here is hoping for a better night's sleep.

The Joys Of Time Change.

Our Location today is Windsor, Ontario.

Though this was the first day back to Eastern Standard Time, our bodies didn't want to recognize that. The Sun came up close to the time it has been slowly adjusting to, but the Clocks simply lied about the time. It will probably take until next Spring for us to get used to this Time Change, only to have to reverse the process again. I remember as a child that the only way we experienced Daylight Savings Time, was when we visited longtime family friends in the next County. It was highly Agriculturalized, so the changes were beneficial to help working the fields. Today the practice is spread across the entire Country. There should be more places like the state of Arizona where the only time changes they see, are witnessed strapped to their wrists, the changing colour of their Hair or the aches in their Bones. Living in the dry climate of the desert, the last change is less noticeable.

With no more Muffins available for breakfast, we settled for Cereal. Looking outside at the beautiful Sunshine was very deceiving. Putting your hand close to the window, you could sense the Cold Temperature heading our way. Checking The Weather Network showed we were Below the Freezing Level outside.

Surprisingly, there were very few RV Bloggers that had written this morning. Probably most were recovering from what I wrote about in my first paragraph. That meant that I had the chance to check my Facebook Account, for the first time in a couple of months. It also gave me the chance to purchase another Book from Amazon, written by former Fulltime RVer Nick Russell. Kathy doesn't know yet so please don't tell her or it will ruin the surprise.

I was about to start preparing lunch, but Kathy didn't like it when I said it would take another Hour to get ready. We ended up sharing a Store-Bought Thin-Crust Medium Bacon and Mushroom Pizza.

There was more investigating to be done On-Line, about changes being made for people hauling and driving RVs in Canada, along with changes being made for those crossing the International Border into the US. Even though we have our Canadian Passports, there is a chance that we will have to be Finger Printed and pay a Tourist Fee, just so we can go help support the US economy. We might have to rethink that.

After we finally enjoyed Perogies for supper and cleaned up the Dishes, we watched a few episodes of "Forensic Files".

Tomorrow, I have to call that Physiotherapy Center to verify if I am Liable for Out-of-Pocked Costs, rather than by my Extended Health Care Coverage. If that's the case, I know where I can go at no costs and they can go take a long walk off a short pier.

Since it is Fall, we'll probably be having more Rain soon.
