Trois!

I'm up, I'm up - a little over eight hours of sleep.

[Ginny]

Monday afternoon greetings from HOME!  My sister arrived Saturday morning where I was staying in the Detroit ‘burbs and we had a nice 48 hours together.  On Sunday we attended the big picnic for our high school’s 1950s and 1960s classes.  We were both on the road by 10 this morning to our respective homes.

[Ginny]

Of course, our weekend was dampened a bit by the awful news from El Paso and Dayton. 

DR Ginny, what is this "Oregon" area in Dayton?  I don't remember ever hearing any part of Dayton called that when I left Ohio!

It’s primarily several square blocks around Fifth Street, east of downtown.  It was designated a historic district in the mid 1970s.  Not far from the library where I worked.

[Ginny]

What is it about Middletown politicians? Rep. Candice Keller needs her thumbs taped to her forehead and someone needs to break her phone.

Our state representative 

And our neighbor

Ubered to Hugo's and had a nice lunch meeting - I had the barbecue turkey sandwich, which came with a tiny version of the Caesar salad.

[bk]

Walked a mile to the mail place, picked up packages, and Ubered home.

Now doing work on the computer, and preparing a new release announcement.

I ushered last night for the closing of the film festival. One of the movies, Ernie and Joe, was a fascinating documentary about two San Antonio cops hired by the city’s new program to treat the mentally ill like humans, not criminals. The program has since been picked up by a growing number of cities.

It sounds like a wonderful program.

[Jane]

Never turn your back on a cat!  I just did, and turned back to find Stella drinking water out of my water glass.

My niece has one cat (out of her four) that LOVES to drink out of people's glasses, so she keeps a glass of water on the kitchen table at all times just for that one cat and helps to keep the cat out of other people's glasses...not entirely, but mostly.

Cute.

Good afternoon.

Joshie used to dip his paw in a glass to get a drink. So I just put a glass on the floor for him.

[Jane]

We went for a 5 mile walk this afternoon, keeping mostly in the shade.

Show off.

[Jane]

If you want showing off....I did 3 miles on the treadmill this morning and Keith went farther on the cross trainer.  The advantages of being retired.

[Jeanne]

Hello, everyone.

[Jeanne]

My morning started by learning that someone decided to use my credit card for his expenses. Yes, we've all been through this. Yes, I know I'm not responsible for the charges and I have other cards I can use, but it is still annoying. I do a LOT of online shopping and that number is embedded several places. That's the tricky part. Sigh.

[Jeanne]

Another brutal sneezing spell.

And one (1) Benadryl... down the hatch.  Bottoms up.  Cheers.  etc.

~~~No-More-Sneezing Vibes for ChasSmith!!~~~

Ditto!

[Jeanne]

Good news.  Vibes the surgery solves your issues.

~~~Ditto and Ditto!!~~~

From me, too.

[George]

[Jeanne]

DR Laura, I can understand your discomfort over guns in public places. Do many other Arizonians share your concerns?

Oh, no!

It is very frustrating and very annoying when this happens.  Will your credit card company overnight you a new card?

Awww.

[Jane]

We keep mugs of water next to our bed, mugs with lids.  We purchased these years ago to protect our water from the cats.

[Jeanne]

After taking care of the errant credit card I picked up my prescriptions for next week's surgery, went to the bank, and then went to my favorite taco jernt for some tacos.

[Jeanne]

I'm trying out a little mom-and-pop pharmacy. Actually, I think it's just the pop--no mom. So far, the phone has been answered promptly and the staff has been courteous. My prescriptions were ready when they said they would be. They aren't open on Sundays, but I'll live with that in order to obtain courteous, efficient service. My experiences with Rite-Aid were horrendous. The pharmacists there were rushed off their feet and often short-tempered as a result. I have no desire to return.

No. Discover will, but this is Chase. I requested it, but they only use UPS. They said 1-2 days. It could be a quick as overnighting in, if UPS is prompt. I'm not counting on it.
