Two days in one

We didn't rise until 8:00. Evelyn went to exercise while I showered. We wanted to stay for the final park meeting, featuring a report from the national park representative. It does seem that many improvements will be made this summer. We went on down to Nuevo Progreso for tourist appreciation day. There were thousands of people hoping to get free magaritas and some food. We were not even offered any drinks until we went to the Rose Garden and had a free 7 ounce beer and a tortilla stuffed with meat and potatoes. I had a haircut and Evelyn had a pedicure. We also bought two bottles of Kahula for Shirley and a three partition candle showing the nativity for Ray and Genny. The prices were lower during this celebration. There were many spots of entertainment along the main street. All the emcees spoke in Spanish but the dances were in a language that people understand throughout the world. We came home much later than we planned after stopping at a pottery shop to buy a tall urn to set on the porch to hold umbrellas. We spent the night at home. I still have the crud and slept in hour segments wakened by fits of coughing and nose blowing.
We didn't rise early Tuesday morning either. Evelyn went to Knapp for a mammogram, and I went to Dr. Mejia for a blood draw. I laid around and tried to sleep but kept getting telephone calls after dozing off for less than ten minutes. I finally gave up and readied for my golf game with Ray, Joe and Cecil. I had been given a free pass and we paid for a cart. It was in the high 80s but the humidity was low. I had a better than average round but scored 53 on both rounds. The irony is that I beat someone. We were home shortly after 5, and I joined Evelyn for dinner with the bike club. The leaders had gathered up prizes from local merchants and gave them away in drawings. I won a very nice halogen rechargable flashlight. I was somewhat embarrassed because I had not joined the club and was only there because Evelyn had and I am her spouse. Evelyn won something too but we didn't want it so we just kept quiet and someone else took the gift home. We came home and Evelyn did more preparing for the lunch tomorrow. The bad news is that the ribs I smoked Sunday night were tough. It might be that they were from Texas although I think they were pork ribs. Earlier while I Was golfing, Evelyn went to Mejia who didn't renew her prescriptions for the fall. This will cause a problem for us because we will be in the north when she goes on Medicare. We may have to go to Mexico and buy medicine for that period. He also wants her to come back for an ultrasound because two of her medicines she takes are hard on the kidneys. We will be praying that her kidneys are still healthy. I have to go then so I can have my psa results. I will try to talk him into giving us prescriptions for Evelyn. I have decided to sleep on the couch tonight because I will certainly have another night just like last night. I am going to bed now.
