Went to see Cowboy yesterday. He was doing OK but got really upset with this new resident that is a bit like "Billy", always talking and bothering everyone. We went to see the dentist and he had 3 teeth filled. When I get home from my trip we will go back and get a tooth pulled and his partial modified. It frustrates me no end that they do such a poor job with oral hygiene. It just doesn't seem to be on their radar. A lot of the residents don't have any teeth and some of the rest of them have no one requesting or paying for dental care. Talked to one wife and I get the impression a lot of it is just how difficult the whole process is and how unwilling the patients are to go through the process.
Had a nice lunch and then I headed back. Met with the insurance adjuster on the roof and he doesn't agree that the whole roof needs replacing. I called the roofer and he wants to come out and take pics and address it with the insurance company Can't do much until I get back so agreed to let him do that and we will do some negotiating. Not a big hurry since the roof has been temporarily fixed so will address when I get back;
I went to the primary physician today and learned that my labs show I am pre-diabetic and my cholesterol is borderline high. Am going to have to get serious about my diet. Bone scan was good and labs were otherwise good. He suggested I use a stool softener, add more fiber to my diet and that I should be fine.
I got a haircut and a pedicure today in preparation for the trip. Tomorrow I plan to catch up on correspondence, bills, etc and start laying out my clothes for the trip. May try to hit the mall and look for a backpack, although I have a nice satchel could use.
Grandson #4 worked yesterday and painted my bathroom. Still needs some touch up but looks pretty nice. He left and went back to stay with his girlfriend. I worry about him and the whole situation. More later.
