Appointment, Weather, Bowling, Doctor's,

Matt has an appointment with the cardiologist to sort out that pill mix up I mentioned a week or so ago. When they first contacted me they told me he would see the cardiologist at 4:30 today. When we went for the initial appointment last week they gave me a print out showing the appointment as being at 4:30. Yesterday they phoned me to confirm it was at 4:15. Grrr. I told them I wasn't sure we could be there at 4:15 especially as they had originally said 4:30. I don't think they believed me somehow.

Right now, as I am typing at 8:30 a.m. it is almost as dark as night outside. Not sure what's happening. It was raining earlier.

Went bowling and it was the worst game I have had in ages. Didn't really matter a lot as it's the last one that counts and we had already dropped to 2nd position. Probably third or 4th now. Afterwards had to go to the next town to see the cardiologist and get Matt's pills finally sorted. He has, of course, prescribed the higher dosage which Matt was on before.

I don't know if anyone saw it on the news, but apparently Tuesday night Toronto got deluged with all kinds of floods, cars being swamped, cops rescuing people from taxis, even people trapped in elevators because of the water. So, driving to the next town, the heavens opened up, never seen such bad rain and I was scared we were going to get the same as Toronto. Spent over an hour at the doctor's, came out and it was brilliant sunshine and warm!!! Weird to say the least. By the way, when we got to the cardiologist I showed them my schedule they had printed up, eventually they apologised and said it had been rescheduled but nobody had told me. However, we were not called in til gone 4:30 anyway. Unbelievable

Went to the Red Lobster for supper and stuffed myself on snow crab legs. Delicious. Brought home a slice of Chocolate Wave Cake too, Matt ate his in the restaurant whilst waiting for me!!!

No recipe for now, didn't finish this last night as it was getting late. Sorry.

Have a great day

  2. Hi Jo - well all I can say is I'm glad you got Matt's pills sorted out ... and that you compensated with the Red Lobster visit. I had noted the rain - but am glad you went safely there and back - cheers Hilary

    1. Yes Hilary, I was a tad worried about him being on the wrong dosage. The rain was a bit scary too.

  3. Sorting pills is always fun eh? Sorry to hear about the bowling but next time! Toronto really got smacked, I finally saw the news last night and that looked frightening but here, in Quebec on the Richelieu River, we did not get much at all. I don’t know about home though.

    1. Isn't it just Birgit? Incredible the rain in Toronto. Very scary. We got smacked somewhat yesterday but not as bad as there. Haven't heard about the Niagara region.

  4. If you'd gotten in right at 4:15, I would've been stunned anyway.
    Everyone is getting such flooding. Except out west where they could really use a few days of rain.

    1. True Alex, I don't really know why they bothered to change it.

      We are getting a few fires up norther here too, not sure if the rain spread up there, hope so.

  5. It seems most of what I do is troubleshoot medications for Russell. He's the first person to admit he'd be dead if it wasn't for me and my meticulous record keeping and tracking down prescriptions.

  6. So glad you had that printout to show them. It annoys me when things like that happen!
