Re: So...whats for dinner?
Carole - I either missed it or I've I forgotten - why didyour DH need a skin graft? I had a spot frozen on my ear that continues to get red and irritated because that's the side I sleep on. My derm suggested I get a pillow with an ear hole, which I did. I hate it. I'm picky about pillows anyway and this one isn't cutting it. I wish him luck.
Tonight was another sort of blue plate special - Salisbury steak with onion gravy, tiny salted potatoes and fresh green beans.
Re: So...whats for dinner?
Carole, I'm sorry your DH's ear is painful but glad that he doesn't look like Vincent van Gogh. You inspired me to buy some eggplant.
Minus, That chicken soup sounds chock full of delicious ingredients. Having dinner set for tomorrow is a bonus.
This afternoon I saw a cardiologist working his very first day. He was nice and knew his cardiology but was clueless about Medicare part D. In spite of my explanation he ordered meds from a specialty pharmacy not in my plan. I’ll have to call tomorrow and get a nurse to sort it out.
Dinner tonight was cube steak and parsnips in onion gravy with mashed potatoes.

Thanks Wren
The local elk herd enjoyed a stroll along the beach tonight.

Hello, all. I haven't tried to take my cat with me yet. My niece and I are heading up Sept. 17 and back on the 21st. My long stay won't be until the first week in October. That is when Louie and I have our adventure. My little cabin is a seasonal house. I would not attempt that mountain in snow. I will be home in Florida during anything that might be snow up there. LOL

Harley, we didn’t get a typhoid shot. We only drank bottled water.

@chicagoan They usually kneel the bus down, I will have to ask the ramp be lowered and live with it. I am supportive of the drivers myself as bus drivers are getting 12 more dollars an hour which is unfair to me as well. If they go on strike, I will selfishly hope they come to a bargain quickly but if not, will need to adjust my budget.
Re: How long have you been Stage IV?
@alden722 Yes, this is pretty typical. Try Motrin.
Re: My Husband, My Life, My Love, My Family, My Cancer
@mara51506 I don't blame them for striking either. I would think that paratransit drivers would be paid more because their job is complicated. On the regular bus, just say "Please lower the entrance" on coming in and out. It is the bus driver's job to accommodate people who need it-that's why the buses have the kneeling features/ramps. They may not realize you need it until you ask. Glad your injection went well.

Chris - my DH named the orange starfish “Patrick” after the character in SpongeBob Square Pants. I didn’t ask how he knew the character from a children’s show.
