Notes from Pappy's diary

Just fine, Nancy. Much improved and like I said, I can adjust them right from my IPhone. I can set them for restaurant noise, can use them as my phone, can set blue tooth speakers to come through the aids. Amazing technology these days.

Have not been on a lot as wife went into hospital Saturday night. She has pneumonia and is being treated with several drugs. She is doing ok and I'm hoping by Tuesday she will be coming home. I have had quite a time with my COPD too. VA clinic is treating me for that.

So, we come to Florida to get out of bad weather and both get sick.:rolleyes: Gotta get better soon and just happy to have this forum to be able to discuss things like this.

Well, it's 7:10 am and I need my coffee. I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Pappy
 
If you run into Bob, tell him to phone home!:confused:

Pappy, I'm sorry you and your wife have been ill. How'd your wife get pneumonia? Was it a bad cold that went down into her chest?

When we were in the army and moved all the time, we often got sick in the new place. I always figured it was a new set of local "bugs" than at the old place and we didn't have any immunity to them when we first got to a new place.
 
Brought the wife home yesterday and on the way, stopped to drop off prescriptions at CVS drug store. Went back up later and picked them up. When I got home, two scripts were missing. Called the store and that told me they were out of those meds. Why the hell didn't they tell me this when I picked them up?
Anyway, they said they would try to find them and call back. Sure they did. The two inhalers, she really needs, are somewhere in limbo land. So this morning I guess it's chase them down and try to get new prescriptions from the hospital. As far as I'm concerned, CVS can go straight to hell for treating us like this.
God, I miss the old neiborhood drug stores.
Rant over...thanks for listening.
 
Our local Pharmacy called and told us that 15 pills they shorted my wife a week ago are now ready!! They never told us we where shorted!!
 
Sorry to hear all the trouble with your pharmacy, Pappy. There is a new rule here, at least at Kroger pharmacy. You can't transfer a prescription to a mail order pharmacy without the Doctor's approval. Good luck trying to get hold of a doctor for something like that, once you leave his office. So far you can still transfer to another local pharmacy though. That may not last long.
 
Yes we did, Butterfly, after the fact. Needless to say, CVS and I had a serious discussion about the way they treated us. Apologies, of course, but we will be finding a new drug store.

Went up to BJ's wholesale club yesterday to pick up a couple of items. $212.50 later, we got out of there. Things do add up fast. T-paper, towels, 100 count Kcups, some first aid supplies and more. Spent quite some time in the tv department. 80 in. tv? Would need to build an extension on my living room. Forget that idea.

Lawn people are in our park today. Two riding mowers, two guys with the edgers and two guys blowing away all the cuttings.
