Awake: 5:25am Temp 53 Sleep 5+26 cloudy overnight @ Pahrump, NV.
Kathy had a b-a-d night; I wasn’t aware but she moved into the living room @ 4:00am as she was afraid of waking me with her constant barking. She complains of dizziness, aching all over & her throat hurts so much with every cough. Ok, it’s time to do something. She suggests calling Gary & having him look up their family doctor’s phone number from when they lived in Pahrump full time. The secretary told me they are booked solid for today but we should go east for a mile on State route-160; turn right on Calvada Blvd & use the Urgent Care Center ½ mile down the road.
The center opened @ 7:00am & still crowded when I sign Kathy in @ 9:30am. It was a tough & long (1) hr wait for her; I thought she was going to faint several times. When we were called, the nurse & Dr. Flower asked Kathy all the right questions; I thought he was quite thorough. With prescriptions in hand, we drive to Wal-Mart for the medicine. Once again, the waiting game; all together (4.5) hrs.
Our mail was forwarded from Alaska to Pahrump today.
The rest of the day, Kathy was an off & on sleeper. I hinted for a simple dinner: (2) turkey & chicken meat balls each with popcorn while we finish watching the 2nd half of the movie: “Exodus” with Paul Newman, Eva Marie Saint, Ralph Richardson, Peter Lawford, Lee J. Cobb, Sal Mineo, etc. Sprawling history of Palestinian war for liberation becomes sporadic action epic. Newman as Israeli resistance leader, Saint as non-Jewish army nurse aren’t a convincing duo. 1960. A Google check pretty well confirmed the plot. Don’t miss refugees escaping Cyprus detention center & running the British blockade into homeland.
Surprisingly, Kathy did pretty well @ staying awake under the circumstances.
