This forenoon I went into Cold Spring to pick up a prescription for meds for me and met Harold & Marilyn and Ed for lunch, we had a good visit and good laughs. The three of them used to live in this building and I miss them.
After lunch I stopped at the dollar store and picked up some much needed "stuff" like earrings. We are having a pot luck Halloween eve and I needed something for the occasion.
After my shopping spree I went in to see Harlan, I had received several calls from him because changes in anything causes him stress and they were replacing his night stand with a new one, he just doesn't understand he thinks he has to pay for it and I can't make him understand it will not cost us anything. The night stands are very nice looking, they are wood instead of wood look over metal, but they are smaller and there is not enough room on top for the stuff he needs like a telephone, lamp, Kleenex, TV remote, hearing aid container, clock, container of drinking water and his neb machine. The old one was crowded but the new is several inches smaller in all directions but taller, the drawers are also smaller, not enough room for his clothes, like t-shirts, shorts, sox and hankies, all of this has to fit in one drawer. We put everything in his new night stand and then got permission to put everything back so he has his old one but I'm sure that will change and he will get the smaller one in the end.
We hit Perkins for his treat today he had breakfast, and I had a bowl of soup.
I left when it was supper time and for Harlan, because he had eaten at Perkins he didn't want to eat. He called me when I got home and was concerned about my working and changing his night stand he didn't think I should have done that, some one there should, that was so nice of him to concerned for me, and I love him for that.
Until tomorrow, Good Night....Fran
