Wednesday and a Busy Day

 I slept fairly well last night and got up shortly after 5:00AM. I had a light breakfast that early and went over to Coffeyville at 7:00AM to have a fuller breakfast with Bob, my brother -in-law.

Then I bought my gas and got my hair done and went out to Wal Mart and bought four things. Then I washed the car.  I also went by the jewelry store and had another new battery put in my watch. It appears to be going through a battery every six months.

After that I realized I had too much time to kill before my 1:00PM eye appointment. So I drove back home at 10:30AM and will leave again at 12:30PM for the 1:00PM appointment. I wanted to get an 11:00AM appointment but that one was taken so I took this 1:00PM one.  I will need more contacts but do not want to get new glasses.

I fed the cats and the yellow kitten again. Before I leave I will bring in the double bowl.....the only one I have left out there. I hope the mail comes before I leave.

Suzanne, my landlady,  came and brought me soup. She is so thoughtful.

I got over to Coffeyville again in good time. I had about a 15 minutes wait to get in. They close for noon.

I got a good eye examine. I need new contacts. I am on my last one. They gave me a new prescription and ordered new ones. They evidently "breathe" better...  according to Dr. Dobbins.They will call me in a week and see how I am getting along with them. Then if everything is fine, they will order a years worth of new ones.

She also wants me to get new glasses. I really don't want any new glasses. The only time I wear glasses is when I take my contacts out. Usually I go to bed then.  I don't know what the bill will be. There is a basic $15.00 deductible charge and also $25.00 that medicare won't pay. Then there is the cost of the contacts. I won't know what that is until they come in. I will have to transfer some money from my savings for that too.  

Always something.....

When I got back to Caney at 2:30PM,  I stopped at Sonic and got the Wacky Pack chicken strips and tater tots and a small Coke. (That was $2.18) That was my lunch.  

Now I am watching an episode of Dateline that I had recorded.  It is 3:30PM now.

More later....

I started to put my trash in the large trash can and realized I was now out of the 13 gallon kitchen trash bags, So I went out to our Dollar General and bought some. Seems it's always something. I thought I bought everything I needed out at Coffeyville's Wal Mart this morning.

It going on 7:00PM now so I will take my bath and then read until bedtime at 9:00PM
