Urinary Tract Infection

Greg encountered some problems on Thursday, but waited until Friday to visit the doctor, but didn’t have enough time. So I took him in on Saturday morning. He has a urinary tract infection. I always think of that cat food when I hear that. There is a special cat food you feed to cats that prevents that. Wonder if I could slip it in his jello? Then we visited the store to get a few things while waiting for his prescription. I failed to have a list. Did you know it is DANGEROUS to go to the store without a list? We always buy things that we shouldn’t…or forget things that should be on a list. Well, after waiting 20 minutes (why didn’t they page us?) we ambled back to the pharmacy. And were told that our MAJOR prescription card was not accepted by them. Now…we have filled prescriptions here before. And they DO accept it. But the person explained that they had called to get authorization & talked to a non-english speaking person (ANOTHER OUT-SOURCING PROBLEM) and were told it was not valid. Gee, do you think the language barrier is a problem? Or their attitudes? When are the major companies going to learn that out-sourcing DOES NOT WORK? Get a clue! DUH! I am going to scrap a page today of White Chocolate Mousse and then post it here. The recipe is DELICIOUS! The best mousse I have ever tasted. It is never in the fridge for long. Thus far, I have NOT out-sourced my recipe. Yippee! Saturday-After returning home from the doctor & shopping, Greg rested. I nursed. Sunday-Greg made dog grog this morning…Fired up the BBQ and made it on the deck. Greg rested. I nursed & scrapped. Greg worked in the shop for about 2 hours late tonight. Monday-I did spring clean-up outside, as most of the snow has melted there is just isolated areas where there was a LOT of build up. Picked up a wheel barrow full of pine cones. Put out my pink flamingos, pulled some wayward weeds, picked up some stray garbage. Along the highway, we always get garbage blowing into the yard…Scrapped 3 pages and posted 1 (there is something wrong with uploading at the Kitchen); Left positive comments on several sites. Went to pick up the UPS delivery at the shop, washed 3 loads of clothes & put them away. All this b4 10:00am. And still have to vacuum. WHY, oh, WHY do they have to OPEN the GATE? To drive in 5 feet and leave a package? The other UPS driver drove around our barricades, and left the package at the house. Didn’t he wonder why the gate was closed, why there were no trespassing signs, and why there were car-size logs on either side of the gate???? People…what do we have to do to make it clear that you are NOT to come on the property? Land mines? Or maybe just a big sign advertising land mines! That’s an idea! Greg will stop to see Kevin & Karen at the chiropractor’s today. Kevin is the Chiro, Karen is his dedicated, wonderful, excellent receptionist! Love them.

Hopefully we will make it to a movie this week! Oh. Almost forgot! I got TWO new Starbucks cups this weekend to add to my collection! A pretty blue and a flowery spring one!

"MAJOR prescription card was not accepted by them" i used to have a prescription card like that and then i found one that works everywhere... actually..I'd really like to say how much this RX card has been a life saver for me. I'd lost my job because I'm ill, and with that, I'd lost my health insurance. I used all of my savings paying $980.00 a month to Anthem until I had no more to use. I didn't know what to do and then I saw Montel Williams . I have MS also, as well as a history of lung and breast cancer. When I was diagnosed with another illness, I thought my life was over. This card has been an integral part of my pulling my life together again.
