Winter Notes- Thursday the 23rd- Happy Thanksgiving.


 I was about to put the Sweet Potatoes in the oven...and realized it's too soon so came here to write my post.  We are having an abbreviated meal.  Just enough and not too much of anything...some leftovers. Daughter is eating with friends. And we forgot about pie so..no dessert.

It was cold and rained a lot yesterday but the Sun is shining today and it's still cold but not as bad. For the California Boy. He was bundled up when he went out to fill the bird feeders.

He has thermal shirts from his Dad's closet, fuzzy socks and Bean Boots...they have the same sized feet.  So he'll have plenty of warm stuff for his first Maine Winter.  The first one is the worst.

I also have a pair of husband's socks on today...he had a lot of socks. 

I think the sweater I have on was also his once upon a Time.  But it could also be a Goodwill Sweater.  I am also making a box to take to the Men's Shelter.  Clothing, underwear and socks if there are any left. I have a handful of still packaged toothbrushes from the dentist... I might purchase some disposable razors and deodorant and toothpaste.  I think they stumble in without much "hand luggage".

So that's it for today...Monday I will stop by the Town Office and pay what I owe for two Ambulance Rides.  There might STILL be a huge surprise set of bills from the hospitals ....but not yet.  And I need to find paperwork....it's like a huge rumble inside my head right now.....I know it will all find it's way to being done....but the getting there is not always easy.  But it gets done......I hope.

  1. Enjoy your day. Meicare and your supplemental should cover bills if you have that.
    Stay warm

  3. Beverly- I have medicare and an excellent supplemental....the amount I have to pay has already been reduced.
    a bit over $300 for each ride for me to pay. I think I settled the bill for the first hospitalization when I took him home before they discharged him.. against daughter's "wishes"...... she actually thought he would get BETTER. I knew he was only going to get WORSE.

    She didn't come for dinner yesterday...I can see this is how it will be- she is only coming to see her brother TODAY.
    He might have refused to go to dinner with HER yesterday...I don't ask.
