Our Location today is Windsor, Ontario.

After only spending minutes in my Recliner, I managed to spend the rest of the night, sleeping in Bed. When I woke around 8:30 this morning, the discomfort from yesterday's injections had totally disappeared.
Unfortunately, after opening the Balcony Blinds and later the one in the Bedroom, it was necessary to turn on the Lights to brighten things up. What woke Kathy up, was the sound of Dishes being moved, while I got things ready for our breakfast snack. With other things to do, we only spent enough time on the Computers, to finish our Coffees. While doing that, we got a call asking if we could move our Afternoon Appointment up by Thirty Minutes. Done!
For the last few weeks I've been trying to get something accomplished, but one excuse after another, always got in the way. This morning we sat across the table from one another, filling in our Passport Renewal Forms that we picked up a couple of months ago. Our Fifteen Minute task only took an Hour, but we were certain we were ready.
Not wanting another excuse to pop up, we headed to Wendy's for a quick, tasty lunch. Paula was surprised to see us, but we reminded her that she had said she would see us today. She just laughed with a big smile on her face.
When it was time to head across town, we had forgotten about the Construction Gridlock just up the road. After traveling only a Hundred Feet in Five Minutes, we cut through the Walmart parking lot back to the Parkway. Five minutes later we were headed for City Hall Square.
There is a problem when you don't go through the heart of the City very often. The last time we were there was for our niece's wedding that I photographed. City Hall has been replaced and the entire area looks different. We drove around the area Four Times looking for 400 City Hall Square, with no luck. Asking a City Worker cutting the grass, (Yes, it is still growing here) he laughingly said it was inside 400 City Hall Road. Who knew?
After
freezing to pay for parking we finally found  the entrance. Then
being directed by Security,
we found Suite
103,
better known in Windsor
as Service
Canada.
With all our paperwork in hand we
were shown Twice
that we had not filled in some of the boxes and
we had to step aside, correct it and get back in line. Things like
you show when you Retired
but are you still? Oh, you forgot to put Today's
Date.
You only have Two
References
and you need Three.
When I raised my voice, because of Back
Pain,
saying it was a Renewal
and not a New
Application,
we were told it was good. Not so fast, we still had to wait Fifteen
Minutes,
before being called
in for processing.
Luckily, we won't be needing them this Winter,
but we should have them by the end of next month. We hated to leave
the warmth of the building, but we had things to do.
On our way to our appointment, we stopped at Vital-Aire to check on Strap Covers for Kathy's CPAP Mask. A lot of people don't realize, that they can be allergic to Silicone on their faces. We first learned of that when my face was on the verge of Bleeding due to contact with the Silicone Pillow of my CPAP Mask. Since it has been Five Months when they were ordered, they got a set off the Display and reordered more for Kathy.
By
the time we reached the Bank,
it was startting to Drizzle
for the first time today. Since Mark (Our
Financial Advisor)
works different locations throughout the City,
we waited Twenty
Minutes
before heading inside. We barely go out of our Car
when he arrived. Two
Minutes
later we were in a private office discussing our finaces.
PreCovid
we had unexpected expenses on both the Truck
and our Trailer
( our
Home).
When we had to find an Apartment,
that cut deeper into our Savings.
Today, Mark showed how far our recovery has come and with a few more
changes, hopes to see us back on the road, sooner than later. But,
he gave me some Homework
to do before our next get together. I
thought those days were over.
We stopped at the Pioneer gas station to top off the Car with Gasoline at this week's lowest price. Good thing, because Oil went up in price today.
Next we stopped at the Credit Union to take care of our Monthly Payments.
Since it was already 5:00, we walked next door to Taco Bell, to try their new Crispy Chicken Menu. It was tasty and filling, but according to my ankles, there was more Salt than I should have eaten.
After dropping Kathy at the front entrance to our building because it was Raining,then parking the Car, I walked in just as the "6 o'clock Local News" was starting. Though we are having warmer than normal temperatures, there is some Sxxw in the forecast, for the upper part of the Province.
We later watched "Law and Order" before calling it a night.
We'll be busy again tomorrow.
