Awake: 6:51am Temp 46 sleep 7+10 sunny overnight @ Pahrump, NV.
One hr, eleven min, Kathy the nurse spent talking to Laurie @ AARP this morning. It appears that innocent I filled out the wrong Enrollment Form for our AARP Medicare Supplement Insurance Plan in late December; they wanted me to start all over again & I would be penalized for being late. That’s when I asked Kathy to intercede & that’s how the (1.2) hrs of cell phone time developed.
I filled out the wrong form because it was the only form sent; with Kathy handling the issue, they determined that the error was AARP’s fault and that I shouldn’t be penalized.
Laurie filled out the enrollment form over the phone predating it to Jan 1st, which it should have been. She was going to send it to me for my signature and send a note to the enrollment dept explaining what happened and what she felt was the right & proper thing to do. We’ll see what happens!
About 12:40pm, Kathy invites me to take a walk with her to mail some letters & visit the Ace Home Center but I decline this generous opportunity; I would like to start cleaning up our dusty coach before we drive down the road. So out comes the Windex cleaner & rags; I clean all but (3) windows, clean (5) basement storage doors & inside chrome & (2) tire rims. Meanwhile Kathy returns & vacuums the inside of our home again.
Melissa calls @ 5:11pm Pacific time & talks mostly with Kathy for (40) min. They talk about the kids, how Matthew is doing both with his diabetes & since his recent injury. Melissa also relates some a funny anecdote about Andrew. Seems he is always interested in what is in the room when he goes to bed and thus the question & answer session between him & Melissa. “Are there any wolves in here?” “No.” “Are there any owls in here?” “No.” “Are there any eyeballs in here?” “Yes, Mama’s, Matthew’s, Andrew’s, & Nathan’s.” “Are Daddy’s eyeballs here?” “They will be pretty soon.” Are Gramma’s eyeballs in here?” “No they’re in the motorhome.” Are G-daddy’s eyeballs in here?” “No, they’re in the motorhome, too!” Melissa says Andrew’s nightly queries crack her up.
We record the Royal Family while watching Nat’l news on the other TV in the bedroom.
Dinner: Salmon patties with a special sauce, wild rice, frozen peas & whole grain toast.
After dinner, we watch the O’Reilly Factor & (20) min of the (1) hr recorded history on Alaska.
DRV movie: “Kentucky Kernels” with Bert Wheeler, Robert Woolsey, Mary Carlisle, Spanky McFarland, etc. Wheeler & Woolsey take little Spanky into the Deep South to collect inheritance, but find themselves in the midst of a family feud. 1934. Caution: do not even think of watching this movie unless you are very poor, destitute & have a hearing & vision problem.
