I walked outside to see if it was a good day to take “Tommy” the Dawg out for a drive. It’s been rainy the past month, and I don’t like going for drives in the rain.So, Tommy hasn’t gone for a ride with me in a while now. Outside, it was sunny with clear blue…

Read MoreIt’s Sunday.I’ve showered and changed my Wafers and Bandages.I then placed a Medical Order for the out-of-pocket items that I purchase on a monthly basis. Sometimes only after two weeks. The dogs are fed, and the truck is warm. —I almost broke off into a poem there.It’s sprinkling outside. A bit gloomy looking. Still, though,…
