Today Is Tuesday, November 12, 2024: This Is What Happened.


Yesterday’s main thing we did was put in a new faucet in the back bathroom. Our bathrooms are small—there is not much room at all. Then, we just generally picked up.

Address some envelopes for some artist trading cards I’m trading. No mail went out yesterday.



So today, I’ve been trying to get hold of the Department of Medicaid here in Idaho. I will be on Medicare in February and will be glad to be on It. Medicaid has too much to hold over you. I don’t know how many times I have mentioned it. I wish we had a one-payer option.

Before Murphy and I went to the senior center. We went over and picked up one of his pills. For 90 days, we paid $2.33. Since we were early for lunch. We stopped at the community thrift store. Each of us found one thing. Murphy got a hammer drill and paid $9.99. And I saw a set of watercolor pencils for .99¢.

We had beef pot roast with mashed potatoes, gravy, carrots, and broccoli for vegetables for lunch. And mix fruit.

Plus, the food giveaway.



Today’s art piece is called “Yearning to be Caressed.” Question time...What is something you have been yearning for?

MAHMOUD FARSHIAN did this piece, and I’ll share more of his works. Most of his works are considered in the KITISH style.

Coffee is on.

    1. Doesn't make enough money? Isn't the whole point of medical aid programs to be there for those who can't afford private health insurance?

  16. Medicare can’t come soon enough, right? Dealing with Medicaid is always a hassle. I feel the same way about wishing for a single-payer option. February will be here soon

  18. Good for you getting some envelopes addressed! I’ve been meaning to do a mailing for a swap, but I keep putting it off. Artist trading cards are so much fun to trade.

  22. Do you ever take the food from the senior center's lunch home? I’ve heard of some places letting people take leftovers, which is helpful
