Fun at the doctor's office

We had a normal beginning to the day, but at 9 we had a meeting with our medical air transport service. This service will fly our mortal remains to Geneva for burial so the kids won’t have to bother with that since they are quite a distance from us. We bought the service for protection when we went on our Panama Canal cruise last spring. We didn’t want to chance being put ashore in Mexico if we were seriously ill. The service will come to get us. We are planning another cruise in South America next January and will feel good knowing we are still covered. We left there and spent the next two hours with the doctor. Part of the time found me getting electric therapy on my shoulder. The nurses forgot me and I spent too much time waiting. The blessing was that I was able to take a nap. I had blood drawn again to check my lipid profile and both Evelyn and I will get ultra sound checks on our arteries and I will get an MRI on my shoulder next week. We had made arrangements to meet our widowed friend, Lois, who needed a ride home. She was at a doctor across the street and walked over to meet with us. We took her out to lunch at a Taco Cabana. We had a 2 for 1 coupon and shared the two dinners among the three of us. We took her to shop at Wal-Mart and then home. We came home too and took a nap. I worked on writing and reading e-mails. My computer runs so slow that I spend most of the time waiting for it to be transferred. We had soup for supper because it is cold enough for it. The day was rainy and in the low 50s. I also called and cancelled our order for the car we had looked at in McAllen. I will just try to buy one on line. I decided to begin painting the interior of the closet. It is too small to paint all three walls at once: I would have to back into one to paint the other, so I just painted the back and the west side. I will paint the east wall tomorrow. I will probably have to give things two coats anyway.
