Check out this picture below, and see you you can figure out what is going on in it...
Now if you guessed that the picture is of Judy, counting pills on our table, you are absolutely correct, and win the prize!
Why is she counting pills? Here is the story. Last winter, when we were in Florida, somewhere around mid-January, I was getting some of my pills out, and it came to me that maybe I did not have enough pills to make it till May 1st, when we planned to return to Canada. Sure enough, I was over 20 pill short in one of my scripts. WHAT? How can this be?
What we normally do, is purchase a 180 day supply before we leave for our winter trip. We get pre-approved to do this from our Drug Company. Last winter I did not count the pills before I left, and should have! We were short. Thanks a lot Walmart! That is who we use to dispense our Drugs to us. Lucky for us, we returned home at the end of January and I was able to pick up the pills, or we could have had a real problem. Lesson learned, now we count, and yes, they were all there!
More work continued today on the floor job. Yes, they make me work on Saturdays! I did not even do that at the Bank! Today we filled all the cracks in the hardwood with wood filler to give a real nice smooth finish.
You can see the wood filler on the floor in the top part of the picture... this was a big job, but Chris and I got it all finished up today. Next is a lot more sanding!
We will take the next couple days off on this job to enjoy Thanksgiving with Family. Will travel to Orillia tomorrow for annual Thanksgiving Family Dinner! Look forward to it!
Till tomorrow.

I have a question. Why, when I click on one of your pictures to expand it to see if better it wants me to log into YAHOO? I'm confused.
ReplyDeleteHave a great Thanksgiving. Floor is looking better.
ReplyDeleteWe used Walmart as our pharmacy while we were traveling until the day I was given the wrong prescription ( I always check to see if the pills "look the same") this time they didn't and when I questioned the pharmacist, she quickly took them back and after a few minutes brought the bottle back with the correct looking pills. When I questioned her what the wrong pills were, she said "privacy laws" kept her from telling me. She didn't know the head of the pharmacy was one of my good friends and when I told her later what happened, I got the real scoop. The wrong pills were a prescription for an animal that was diabetic, and the person no longer works for Walmart..... It pays to always check your pills before you leave the counter. Sometimes they will look different because they change pharmaceutical companies.We did change pharmacys from that day forward
ReplyDeleteWe always make sure we have enough med for 200 days, just in case of an error problem.
ReplyDeleteThe floor is looking good, saturday work is good for you. I worked weekends and holidays most of my working life.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Weekend and travel safe.
I can see shorting you maybe 2 or 3 but 20! That is inexcusable. Great idea about counting them.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you are working for slave drivers!
Happy Thanksgiving. Hope you have a wonderful celebration.
You're taking Thanksgiving off of work? What gives?
ReplyDeleteThe floor is looking good, can't wait to see if all finished so I hope you get back to work soon.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and the family. Nice job on the floors, and a well deserved break from all the hard work. Sure a great Leafs game last night right down to the final seconds.
ReplyDeleteSome pharmacist (or assistant) at WalMart did not know how to count pills.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving! Taking a break this weekend seems like a fitting reward for all the good floor work.
