Friday and Lunch at Coffeyville

I woke up a couple of times in the night..once to go to the bathroom and take my meds. Shortly before 5:00AM, I just got up. I had slept pretty well.

I am going to eat my breakfast and watch the CBS news and then go over to Independence to Walgreen's to pick up my thyroid med and then go on to Coffeyville to get my blood pressure med and have lunch at the senior center there.That lunch will be $3.00. Asbury Village, a nice retirement home, then donates the money to the senior center. While I am in Coffeyville I need to go to the bank and pick up my new checks too.

Then I will come back home because Krystal or one of her girls are going to mow my poor yellow yard.  I will need to trim this week too. I also will need to dust again sometime today.

More a little later. I am going to fix my breakfast. 

I have had my breakfast and coffee and I will fix my Chai Latte and go watch "the weather on the 8's" now and perhaps check on the cats.

So more even later... 

No cats came for breakfast this morning. They evidently don't want to eat dry cat food after being spoiled to the that Suzanne gave me.

I left for Independence to get my prescription filled there and Walgreens. For some reason I had two there and  then I went on to Coffeyville to get my blood pressure med and stop at the senior center for the lunch Asbury Village for us. 

It was a good lunch and only $3.00 and I had a good chance to visit with Richard Akers, one of the two men who did the redoing of our home on Catalina in Coffeyville. He and his stepson did wonderful  work. Everything they did was perfect. They took three small windows out of the dining room and replaced them with huge windows which gave us a lot more light. Then we had them put new cement board siding on the entire house. They replaced the carpet in the dining room with some really nice flooring. We spent a lot of money on that house and the woman who bought it from us has just let it all run down. It's a shame..a pitiful shame!

After I got home from Coffeyville and looked at my two prescriptions from Walgreens, I noticed they were the very same prescription. Except one was $28.00 dollars and the other one was $18.00. 

So, I went back up to Walgreens and talked to them about that problem. They refunded the full payment on my debit card and just charged me for the lower cost prescription. But that had meant a second trip to Independence.In the meantime Krystal had come and mowed for me and called to find out where I was. I told her I was on my way home from a second trip to Independence and would be home in 15 minutes. When I got back home, she came over so I could pay her before she went to her second job at Pizza Hut here. Luckily I had left the mower out on the front sidewalk and the trash bag in front of the trash container. She wasn't unhappy with me for not being here when she mowed. The yard is looking so much better. In the morning before it gets too hot, I will trim . I had intended to get gas for the mower while in Independence but I didn't want Krystal to be late for her evening Pizza Hut second job. The mowing won't need to be done for another week.I will get gas sometime next week at Woodshed in South Coffeyville.

It is 6:20PM now and at 7:00PM, I will take my bath. I plan to stay up until 9:00PM and then go on to bed.

I’m glad you checked your prescriptions and told Walgreens about it. You got more sleep than I did. I got up at 3:00 and just couldn’t get back to sleep. Arrghhh!
