All the Kaboom Friday chores are done, along with a few extra things that didn't require a lot of effort. Dinner is all planned out and will be pretty easy to execute. It's hot as blazes and the pool out back is calling me. Time to get wet.
CW, we have to contract our own trash hauler. We live in a small town and they don't contract for the residents. We have pick-up every-other week by choice to save a little money - as it stands we pay almost $200 a year for our bi-weekly collections. They somehow missed us a week ago Monday. When I called to see if they switched our week again (because it's happened already this year) they said no, did I want them to send the truck the next day? Considering our cart had two small bags in it I said it wasn't necessary. That way they credit you for the missed pick-up. I told her it's a good thing our carbon footprint is about the size of a baby shoe....Good thing garbage day is tomorrow (we only have garbage p/up every other week--PITA. No idea where my property taxes go...except up and services go down).
Well I kinda have to agree with you there. My last couple of major shopping trips have caused me extreme pain and I think I'll probably be feeling like you do pretty darn soon,
I really miss having a mobile scooter. I had bought a few used ones before I moved here. I could hop on and go to the store for a couple of things anytime I wanted.
I'll just have to ask my primary care doctor if he can help me get another one. They don't seem to have used ones available here in New Orleans, or if they do they want an exorbitant price.

I went on Facebook and typed in "new Asian market near GotGarlic's place" but couldn't get it to come up.
Medicare will pay for one for you. Find a store in your state and get in touch with them. Or contact a company direct and they will notify their agent in your town or area. They will help you from A-Z. They take care of the billing. They will even contact your PCP for a reference. If you also have Medicaid, they will pay your Medicare premium and the balance of any that Medicare does not pay for the scooter. Medicare will insist you have a new one. Safer for you all around.

This is the scooter I presently have. It goes seven-eight mph and can travel 12 miles on a single charge. I speed up and down the halls to the terror of all the residents. I even have mirrors on both sides of the handles. My first one, I rode into the ground. I worked that one so hard it could no longer take a charge. Even with new batteries.
Thanks, Addie. I was just feeling wistful about the scooters I enjoyed in the past. Now it really isn't feasible because I wouldn't be able to take my cart with me, plus I don't have the space to store a scooter.

I've changed my way of shopping to buy enough to get me through the month. I like havingk. a variety of foods to choose from. I may try to get a scooter later if my legs don't improve with the medication I'm taking. I'd love to be able to get to the library. It's not far and would help cut down my books costs. I read constantly, usually 4 or 5 books a week.
What am I doing?
Er..... well just sloping in quietly and hoping nobody noticed I had been away?
(is it working?)
Glad to see you back. No, you can't just sneak back without us noticing. What have you been up to?What am I doing?
