Well, you've read the notes, the notes stated that I started a new book, number twenty-three, and now it is time for you to post until the twenty-three cows come home.

Yesterday, I was going to go to my mom's house but not until 3:30 or so, so I went and visited my friend Shelly, who lives in the next building from me.  We played a game of Phase 10 (I won ;) ) and we chatted...she can be a talker.

After one game, I left and went to my mom's for our quasi-weekly family dinner.  This time, we had tacos (quite delish), and then we played a game of Phase 10.  My mom won.

Then we all left and since it was early enough, I visited my friend Shelly again, and we played another two games of Phase 10.  We each won a game.  Then I came home.

I finished Shy last night. Mary Rodgers was an amazing lady and I wish I had known her better. I may move on to Harvey Fierstein's biography next, but I have several other books to consider, like Paul Salsini's Sondheim and Me, the Sondheim Review saga. I always found it such an ass-kissing magazine.

I had Welsh Rarebit on my first ever visit to a Du-Par’s, that beautiful one on the Miracle Mile, in late 1972. I think I was so taken with the place that I felt I should order something I’d never had instead of the usual sandwich or something like that.

I haven’t had it since. I wonder if I’ve even seen it on a menu since then. There’s nothing exotic about it despite its curious name. I guess I’d call it a comfort type food, and I would be very happy if someone would bring me comfort by serving me some later today.

After I got laid off about 12 years ago, I started up a food web site that had a good, seven-year run. In the early years, I tried dishes that were new to me. One was Welsh rarebit. Good stuff. It’s also when I learned the valuable lesson that if you wanted cheese to melt, don’t use the already shredded stuff.

Tuna pasta salad is very easy:

Make 16oz. of large elbow macaroni. Drain and let dry then douse with very cold water to get the pasta nice and cold, then dump that in your serving bowl. Open a can of tuna, preferably Bumble Bee the extra special good kind they sell. Flake the tuna with a fork as you put it into the pasta in your serving bowl.

Chop up app. half a smaller red onion and but the chopped bits into the pasta and tuna and then add salt and pepper, not too much at this point. Then add three tablespoons of Best Foods or Hellman's mayonnaise. Mix that all together until it's all mixed together, cover, and put in the refrigerator for a few hours. or over night, or whatever.

When you're ready to serve and especially if it's been overnight, then add two more tablespoons of mayo and mix it all thoroughly (if it's not overnight, you're probably fine with one tablespoon of mayo), salt it liberally and then serve. It must be nice and cold so I always recommend overnight. Then those who are eating can add more salt should they desire it - I always do for each serving I eat. That's it.

Now.....

Every three months I am sent my ostomy supplies from a company in Florida.

Before the order is sent, I receive a letter and an email asking me to approve the quantities.  If I don't need something, I can lessen the quantities.  I can't get MORE of anything - Medicare sets the maximum of any product.

I usually just get what is offered.  I have a LOT of some things, but you never know when a shortage might crop up.

I always zero out things I have to overflowing or certainly things I do not use.
Title: Re: STARTING A NEW BOOK - NUMBER TWENTY-THREE
Post by: Jrand74 on January 02, 2023, 03:02:15 PM
So last week I got the email and the letter.  I went to the web portal and zero'ed out a couple of things and approved the order for shipping on January .
Title: Re: STARTING A NEW BOOK - NUMBER TWENTY-THREE
Post by: Jrand74 on January 02, 2023, 03:04:21 PM
Then on Friday I got a call from the company telling me that a hold has been placed on my account because my surgeon sent back the paperwork.  He needs to see me before it will be approved.

This happened once before and it turns out THE COMPANY was behind the whole thing.

I got really angry last time and went off on the guy in true MR BK style......eventually I had a computer consultation with my surgeon and everything was working until last week.

I think it was the same guy who called me.  He was very cautious and stuttered a lot and hummed and hawed ....

After he detailed the details....I just said.....so I
need to make an appointment to see Dr. Tsai.....right?

And he said...."Uh.....yes....."

I said:  "Okay."
Title: Re: STARTING A NEW BOOK - NUMBER TWENTY-THREE
Post by: Jrand74 on January 02, 2023, 03:08:14 PM
So I called Dr. Tsai's office and his nurse was off on Friday.....so Meghan in the office transferred me to Cindy in the Indy office.

Cindy was unavailable so I left a message.  After I hung up, I realized I had left Cindy my land line....which doesn't even exist anymore.

So I called Meghan back and she transferred me to Cindy again....so I left a message with my cell phone number.

Cindy called back with a few minutes.  And now I have an appointment to see Dr. Tsai on Thursday at 1 p.m.

I also think it's kind of unfair that you lose the holiday.

We don't lose it...at least, not the time.  If a holiday lands on a day that someone doesn't normally work, we have the option to add the time to our vacation amount, or get paid for those hours.  Since I have too much vacation time already, I'm going to get paid for it.

I (MOST fortunately) was at least awake, so I rushed myself into the shower, quickly got dressed, then (safely) rushed myself to work just in time to realize that I forgot my key card! ::)

I am shocked you had time for a shower.

It was short, but thorough enough.
;D

I couldn't stop laughing reading your story :))

DR George how did you not know you had work today?  Don't they usually notify you of your days off?

I remember seeing the "observed" holiday in my Outlook calendar and assumed that that meant that WE had the day off.  I was wrong.

That was a hard movie to watch. A child thinks his parents hate him because they hate each other. And his mother actually does seem to hate him. So, he tries to kill himself. His father stops him and they form a bond.

The actor who played the young boy, Robert Lynen, was excellent. The film was made in 1932. By the time the Nazis conquered France, he had joined the French Resistance. He was captured and executed in 1944.

Johnston is a small town.  We get our share of trucks going through, but today, streams of cars would be encountered when only one or two would normally be going by.
