Gotta love well meaning people...

Who doesn’t fall for what we hope is a truism… I posted a graph that to my surprise appeared to state what I thought was true and correct, but then someone else on that post that I shared from another person’s post had a shared to link debunking of the posting that I thought was right… and his info was from a well respected news source. ( But as I have said before and that is this that even the most legitimate resources have been known to also make an occasional mistake… this my friends is called…CYA! Mine.)
I know what you’re thinking sure this gal is slipshod in her verification of info, but this?
Or you may be thinking that she is a not for profit source for legit information who has no business posting any news worthy prospects of destined to be historically inaccurate manifests, huh?
SURE YOU ARE!
Why me?
Why would anyone go to me to find out anything of value, I ask you?
I am no different than any other commoner with not so brilliant ability to judge what is true and right; I can be just as gullible as any other run of the mill innocent unsuspecting fool!
And so I take my inaccuracy as a warning to others to not act too fast when they want something to be what they may think, huh?

As we all know fallibility is not an uncommon art, many practice it daily.
It is good to know that one is not alone in this premise of imperfection, why you ask?
Well, I will tell you, it’s just dreadful to be perfect and so I strive daily to make sure I am flawed and as human as anyone can get, got that?
Sure you do.

It’s so nice to be able to chat with you about all these concerns of mine as they pop up daily.
Other than that blooper of mine or not…
We had a bit of a busy day with stopping by the Cultural Center to get discounted tickets for their Oktoberfest luncheon next week and we saved four bucks this way!
We have gone to it the last few years and it can be quite an adventure since you never know what will happen and I like it that way… for more info you can call them.

Then from there we went and did major grocery shopping at the Publix grocery store, for you non-southerners; it is a grocery chain. Prior to leaving the house we made the list up from their online local circular with all their offers for buy one get one free and there were quite a few.
Hubby thinks we spend more when we do this and don’t save that much, but we were out of everything so it is hard to judge. But according to our receipt we saved not quite 6%, and I suppose Hubby’s right.

On the way home we stopped by the doc’s who is leaving us in the lurch doctor-less and got my other prescription for my Dexilant, my GERD medication for three months. If you recall that’s the one that would have been seventy bucks a month even with discounts and all, but I applied for one of those assistance programs and we met the criteria and last week I receive my first 90 days supply!
So now I will be good for six months.
My Copaxone came last week too which is a three month’s supply and if I did not qualify for assistance on that one it would be three to four thousand a month, wow I am sure relieved that I do!

On the positive side again, that coagulation strip finally fell off this morning of my avulsion of the skin of the thumb injury and boy it is UG---LY!
I have a crevice that I can’t imagine my skin regenerating enough to fill in the hole, but now I am using Bacitracin with zinc on it and keeping a Band-Aid on it unless it gets wet then I removed it and hopefully something good may come of this, actually I have no idea and no one to ask.
Oh sure I suppose I could call back the hospital or ask-a-nurse or the Health Department, but you know them they would want to see it…
Any-who, when I had that nasty dog bite on my lip with all those stitches the plastic surgeon/ dermatologist councilman, yep he was that too said to use that Bacitracin with zinc, but he wouldn’t tell me at first why it had to have zinc until I pressed him.
Apparently, he either thought I was too dumb to get it or worried that his handy work was going to leave a bigger scar and he was afraid of being sued… who knows it was years ago… and so when he finally told me it was because it was less likely to scar, hmm, not such a big secret but he guarded it as if it was…some people are just too difficult to figure out and so I say why bother!

Now that was NOT very world lovingly of me, was it?
Oh well, some are harder to crack than others.
My questioning nature has gotten me in more trouble than not over the years, for when I feel I am just trying to get to know you some think I am way too nosy!
Such is life…
And so on that note of ‘we knew that’ allow me to be the first to ask you all to have a very happy good night and to ask you kindly to count all your blessings and share all your overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?


PS Congrats to Knoxy on her acquittal!
