Permanent Brain Fog?

 Today the contractor for the house had to bring his boss, owner of the company to see the job to be done. We had decided to get our down payment back before the day came. I told them they could come at 2:30 and we had something to do at 3 pm (Jeopardy). Of course, things don't go right. The owner had something else to do in vicinity, so was here about 2:45. 

I asked if they had pulled permits. Yes. Well, I was told last week by agency they had not pulled them. Then, they had started process last week. Liar. And, they could pick them up this week. Then, I asked I told him that he told me they could use copper wires with existing aluminum. He danced around that. We told them we wanted deposit back. They agreed. But, it will be tomorrow because it will have to come tomorrow. They will bring it to use. AND, they did not leave until 3:25, so spoiled Jeopardy. 

Still foggy-headed, but went to Publix to get diet Mt Dew instead of the regular Mt Dew I bought in the morning. On the way home I wanted to get just one Mt Dew instead of the pack of eight that was not on sale like I thought it was. 

I wanted Tommy to get Mupiricin and the one drink at Walgreen's. I told him the Mupiricin might be a prescription med. Remember, I am still not thinking well. He came back out Diet Mt Dew and candy because he needed something for blood sugar. He informed me he asked at pharmacy about Mupiricin needing a prescription or was it on shelf. They told him it need a prescription and he came out. 

So, we went to drive up with ten cars. I called Walgreen's where I was sitting. The store answered when I was one car from window. The pharmacist said it would be done in 15 minutes. Well, finally got to the window in 21 minutes. Yes! It was ready. 

By the way, I have three tubes of Mupiricin here in the house. ????

The Mt. Dew was for the caffeine to clear my head. It always works but not this time. It is almost 10 pm and my thinking is still  off. Maybe it is sinus problem. 

Last week, I had the mower come and put battery back in my car. We got my oil changed and he drove it through the car wash. Then, he did a few other things. We paid him same as for a mowing. The grass has barely grown in the last six weeks. 

Finally, Tommy is willing to get rid of the 50" tv we have had sitting behind the 32" tv. I may have said that. I told him that each day we are getting rid of one thing each day, each of us, not matter how small. It is a start, especially for him. 

Still foggy at 11 pm!

  1. I would be happy to get rid of that old tv too. My parents held on to way too much stuff and I’ve spent years trying to get rid of it all. There is no way I will leave it like that for Bailey when my time comes. I declutter now, so she won’t have to do it later.

    1. If I mention something often enough for long enough, he usually thinks it was his idea. But, we may not have long enough at the rate it is going. My parents kept their console tv to use to put the newer one on instead of getting rid of it. But, to tell the truth, it did not bother me.
