Paid and Stuff
May. 27th, 2011 03:47 pmWell, I drove to Greenville and paid my lawyer what I owed him for all the medical records charges. I got an invoice from him saying that, when I received my retro cheque, I needed to come in and settle that wee bill. 'Twas just under $125.00. I got to speak to his paralegal, Angela, who did so much work on my case. She's so sweet and she's growing dreadlocks, so I'm jealous. Ha Ha! Anyway, I wrote them a cheque and Aunt Tudi mentioned that I'd had a root canal the day before, 'cos I'm talking a little funny, as I don't want to move my mouth much, since I'm sore. I piped up and said, "Yeah, it was a Surprise Root Canal!" And Angela said, "Well, we have a surprise to go with that root canal!" And she handed me a giant box of Whitman's Chocolates. That's so sweet! I thanked her and we discussed her dreads for a few minutes, then off we went to Spartanburg.
In Spartanburg, we went to Ford's Drugs to get Aunt Tudi's shower seat. She's been needing one for about a year now, 'cos she's getting a little unsteady and has almost fallen in the shower a couple of times already. We couldn't afford one, though, and her insurance wouldn't cover her getting one. They didn't have the shower seat in, though, because the company they usually order from has stopped making them. Sue ordered the shower seat from a different supply house, but it won't be in until next Wednesday.
On the way to Ford's Drugs, I spied a Fed Ex shop. AH HA!!!! That's where we're going to ship Barry's package on Tuesday. I was gonna do it Monday, but was reminded that it's a bloody horribleday. So poop. At least it'll give me some extra time to make certain everything is packed up properly. I'm sending him something Very Important this time, something that I've had for years and is sacred in more than one way. Since he likes these items, I can't think of a better home for this to go to. I'm hoping Marilyn likes it too. I'm not saying what it is, as he might read this and then the surprise would be destroyed. How disappointing that would be! When Aunt Tudi and I go back out to Wally World, I'm taking a detour to our local UPS store to get a box that will accommodate the stuff I'm sending to His Dangerousness, so I can work on this over the long weekend.
We had to come home so Aunt Tudi could take a break. My knees are killing me anyway, so I wasn't averse to a wee rest before Wally World. I had to charge the iPod too, as it was running low of juice, and I will kill myself if I don't have music in the car. On our way home, there came a car zooming up behind us, pushing us to go faster, which I wouldn't. I looked in the rear view mirror, and saw that there were like twenty people in this car, which was smaller than my car (and I have a Saturn ION). It was insane. I laughed my ass off, telling Aunt Tudi they were in a hurry 'cos they were packed in that car so tight, they needed to get somewhere so they could get out and get some relief.
Ahhhh, I got nothing else. That's pretty much what has gone on today, so far. I'll be posting a couple of pictures later of the Hillbilly Log Roll I'd mentioned on Judgment Day a few days ago. Aunt Tudi got her film developed and a couple of the pics came out pretty well. I just need to scan them.
