The re-organization is proving to be a bit of a challenge. We just seem to be pulled in so many different directions. Slowly but surely, we're getting the "stuff" in the upstairs studio down to the basement, where just as slowly, I'm getting it put away.
Yesterday, I had arranged to hold a beading class in the living room. This is the bartered exchange for having my green quilt done by a long armer. I had thought of cancelling it, but decided to go ahead for two reasons. The actual date had taken forever to coordinate, as there were to have been 2-3 students. And, I didn't like the stress of having that obligation hanging over my head. As it turned out there were two of them. A third consideration was that there isn't much that calms me as well as working with fibre and beads. So in the midst of our chaos, we set up the card table and three chairs and held a class. Poor David was banished to the computer room. The class went longer than expected, and supper was later than usual. About 7:30 we both settled down to veg out, and the phone rang. " Can you get to St. Boniface hospital for an MRI by 8:30?" The instructions were to come to "just behind St. Boniface Hospital." But we found it, and found metered parking at $2.25 per half hour. Between the two of us we put together about $5.00 and hoped for the best.
We got home about 9:30, and after the stress of the day, we decided it was time for a glass of wine, but only had enough white wine chilled for one serving. So, I decided to try the Elderberry wine that has been sitting on the rack to about 3 years. Not too bad, but needs a bit of clarifying. I still enjoyed a good glass of it.
This morning we were up, and out of the house. With the development of a left facial droop, David's CPAP mask doesn't fit as well. I had called the company, and they managed to give us an appointment. They are quite overwhelmed right now as, with changes in government subsidy, their services are no longer covered, and everyone is trying to get in under a March 15th deadline.
Then it was off to Best Buy again, but with David's computer. He had lost most of the screens that he's familiar with and was having a devil of a time getting around on it. Turned out the machine was in tablet mode, and easily fixed.
The last thing on the list was a trip to the pharmacy to pick up medication the doctor had ordered when we saw him on Monday. Turned out that they didn't fill David's prescription, for a Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory, for his sore thumb, as it was contra-indicated for someone on his dose of Elequis.
Now at home, we plan to spend the day vegging out and watching the Olympics. We've earned it.
