The Grammie on Board
The Grammie is on board for wound dressing for Dennis. This was the first time for me since his surgical day of January 11th. I had watched very carefully when it was done in Mankato on the 17th. That was the first dressing change and I was thankful it was done by a doctor.
Today, out came the wicker basket with my supplies. Thankfully I had enough left over from previous that I have it covered until we travel back to Mankato on the 24th. The doctor had sent over a prescription to the Mayo Store for the supplies to take us into several weeks. The prescription is for three months. I hope we won’t need supplies for that long. We knew there would be a delay from point A to point B, so we came directly home on Tuesday.
I called the Mayo Store today and asked in regard to the supplies, if I would need to shop the shelves seeking what was needed. She assured me the supplies would be bagged up ready for us on the 24th. Sweet!
With all that has happened over the last month or so, the days seem to fly by. Where does the 24 hours go? Just as well that there is nothing in the studio that is on a schedule. I will have plenty of time after we have seen a month of “Grammie Care.” Time will tell.
I remain on livestock chores. It feels good that Dennis can be out in the patio porch while I am doing them. You cannot believe the TLC the kitties are requiring. Short visits is the plan.
I have an oven meal ready. I had one pound of hamburger meat that I browned. 1 good tablespoon of Better than Bullion in the roasted onion flavor went into the hot meat. Several shakes of Soy sauce. The pasta boxes hold four cups of the dry pasta and I used two cups to bring it to fruition. A jar of Classico basil red sauce. When all folded into each other, it will be popped in at 4:15 at 350 degrees.
The next trip to Mankato will need a stop at Hy-Vee for several different flavors of the Better than Bullion. It really does add a lot of extra flavor to our oven meals. It has a long shelf life in the refrigerator.
I was surprised that we have had a freezing mist all day today. There goes my nice clean path to the garage.
The weekend is upon us. January is quickly being left in what it does best . . . yuck weather and very little sunshine.
