It is five minutes until noon, so I just made it in time.

DR John, I gather pill boxes and/or charts don't work.  I realize the diabetes makes it more complicated.  Is it possible to have a team of people, each with a time & medication assigned, to call with a reminder and stay on the phone until it is taken?



I think some form of home health care is what we're going to end up with. It's really complicated.

DR ELMORE this should be the last day of such disruptions....I hope so, too.

We went to the vet to pick up the special shampoo that had been ordered, only to find a sign saying starting today....they close at 1 p.m. on Wednesday....we were there at 1:05.

I remember this playing during sign-ons and sign-offs on TV back in the 1950s!!!

It is.  My father had someone living with him.  Keith's mother fortunately did not suffer from dementia at all.

DR Jrand did you bang on a back door to see if they answered? I would have been very annoyed.  Next time maybe you can order the shampoo online.

Awaiting Kay and John - really hungry, but those meals have not been delivered yet.  Hopefully by the time rehearsal ends.

Listening to the piano concertos of Martinu - these are wonderful works and quite unique.

Went through the classical CD closet lower shelf and got rid of a bunch of stuff and pulled a couple of things to listen to, i.e. the Tippett symphonies and the symphonies of Lilburn, which I remember enjoying - I may do the top shelf this evening.

It's a strip mall DR JANE and no way to get to the back door easily.  There were no cars in the parking lot in front of the office, which I thought was strange.

Are folks who use colons called "colonials"?

Super duper Val just showed up with my printer and it's now up and running. He said he was going to bring it up last night but it was too late.


Glad to hear, DR elmore!

Well, I need to go to sleep now so that I can get to rehearsal on time.  It'll be our final dress rehearsal, then we open on Thursday. :o

;D

Well, we got through our final tech rehearsal.  It wasn't technically perfect ( ;) ), but we got through it.  The show took about 2 hours and 20 minutes, including intermission.  Not bad.  Certainly, as we go through the short run, things will tighten up, but then audience applause will add a little time to balance it all out.

I was sleeping soundly until my cell phone rang at 4:00zm.  It was a text from my bank inquiring about the fact that my account was overdrawn. Well, I'm been hacked and my debit card stolen.


NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(

The omens for today being really lousy continue. I walked to my bank to deposit dome money into my overdrawn account before I was stuck with a $35.00 overdraft fee, only to find when I reached the bank that bot ATMs were down.  I called the bank at once to complain, and the nice lady on the phone said she would mark my account not to be charged.  Well, we'll see.

That's a small consolation.
