Plodding Along

I ran into neighbors Harlan and Peggy at the 789 Casino where we had shown up for our free lunch and free gambling money. I was down and up but left with $5.08. Harlan was planting ideas-that I might decide to stay in Florida. Wishful thinking on his part and not a chance on mine. Awhile ago Thayne was making noises about how much better his life would be if he lived here to check on the cows. Ain't going to happen.

Rich called last night for a long chat-Val was in Sinclair helping her dad build a porch-that woman can do it all. We had a good gab. Just about family and stuff.

This day started cold and wet but allowed some outdoor time. I did a lot of phone time-I called Humana to make sure I was clear on what they covered and didn't. I was right but had to listen to how lucky I was for not paying retail. Still an increase of $1000.00 is not welcome. Next step was getting into the doc which will happen next Tuesday at 1:30. I checked with Lander Regional Hospital about the Health Fair Blood Panel. I was seriously considering giving it a pass this year but I guess I can get it together, fast for 12 hours, and haul myself over there. I will also compute Buster's med needs and get those when he goes in for his shots due in November.

Leaves had fallen into the air intake (ventilation) on the Dodge Van. So using a stick and needle nose pliers I cleaned that out-tedious, and blocked it off with mesh and a plastic bag. The RV and Ranger were already covered.

Felt better today but played out and took a nap. Cooked a crappy dinner-forgot to salt the burger for the Spanish Rice (aunt Helen's version). And life goes on.
