Tuesday Afternoon 10/17/22

4:39pm. I did a little reading this afternoon fell asleep . I started to read chapter 11 the ordeal of Franklin Roosevelt. I didn’t get very far because I got very tired.

While awake I talked with Chocolatechip a long time. She had that interview for that waver program. If she gets on this program Chocolatechip will have more help with house work and personnel care such as getting in and out of the shower. Plus she will have reliable transportation to wherever she wants to go. She can come down to the nursing home for a visit.

I asked what kind of questions they asked. Chocolatechip said they asked about limitations. She said she had a hard time walking then she can’t get in and out of the shower She had to tell them all about her diagnosis and describe the symptoms. Then she had to provide a list of medications Chocolatechip said the interview lasted about thirty minutes She will then get a letter in the mail stating if she qualifies.

She also bought a bed bug mattress from Walmart.com It arrived today. Then she was talking about Betty Jo taking her to Walmart on Thursday. Chocolatechip had se extra money and she wants to get a backup air bed. I said I think that is a good idea. 

I talked about my budget for November. I was saying I’m uncertain about investing in a new tablet. I already spent a small fortune on tablets. Total price of this tablet is now $131. 99  If I buy a new one I’m wondering how long this will last. I can’t afford to be forking out so much money for tablets every month. Then again I’m afraid this one is on its last legs. Chocolatechip said it will be a good to have a back up.

We talked until two. She wanted to watch TV for a a while. I said I’d call her around three.  But I fell asleep and slept for an hour. This was how my afternoon went
