Another beautiful day here in NE Texas. 75 right now and a light breeze. I'm so glad our Arizona guys have those mountains to comfort them. 🤣

Nice this morning, smoked a Bolivar Gran Republic, took shine out for his business, went and filled up truck and gas cans, pump stopped at 125$, guess that’s the max you can use for a day, wife cooked some biscuits ate them on the porch, gave Shine half of one, he’s a chow hound eats anything.

Yep, go with Nat gas, you got to buy a bigger meter station, mine cost 800$ 20 yrs ago, .keep your window unit URB it’s a lot cheaper.! You are fortunate to have access to Natural Gas. We have transmission lines underground here but they will not set up a distribution station. It seems the LPG lobby is too strong and we are forced into their corrupt unregulated system. I stopped using LPG years ago.

With 17% humidity, anything under 110° doesn’t seem that hot.

Zarnicky having access to lots of natural gas. I eating lots of beans. With increasing costs is only gas Zarnicky can affording. They saying beans good for heart but too many can giving you fart attack.

Rather warm and muggy here, but not hot. Saturday we'll get our first taste of autumnal weather, with a high of only 80, but a couple more 88-90 days before we get there.

From the garden today: nothing. I could have picked a couple eggplant and some peppers. Decided to leave them be for another day, or two. Still a fair amount of tomatoes on the vines, not in a hurry to ripen.

Reading posts on the FB Cancer Patient forum. Sad duty but I feel I have to share with others about their conditions. Especially sad when someone is pronounced terminal. I offer some solace and care about them from a distance. Hard to go through yet we all must catch a ride on that street car eventually.

From the garden today: a few Roma tomatoes, a couple eggplants, a few banana and Hungarian peppers, a couple Romanian peppers, a couple Habanero peppers and a large handful of green beans. The eggplants, Hungarians, banana peppers, Habaneros and beans are going strong. Tomatoes are slow to ripen. Still a lot of smaller tomatoes that are small. They'll probably not get full size anymore.

Had a doctor phone visit this morning, changed some meds. Tried to file a claim with the post office for the scope they lost. Spent an hour filling out the form and I got "something went wrong. Please submit it again". Got mad.

A lot of folks wouldn’t want to deal with anybody else’s struggle.

I had a patient in southern Arizona that I drove an hour and a half to, six hours into a shift. The patient refused the order because the nurse places the order by having them on an auto ship order of 12 cases without calling the patient. The patient has too much on hand and wants no more.
Last week in Vegas, I had a patient refuse 65 cases 1,500# for the same reason.
We get the orders, the warehouse pulls them, labels each carton, the pharmacists checks them off, warehouse shrink wraps, I take them on a 650 mile plus journey. Bring it back and a warehouseman has to remove labels and put everything back into stock per-lot codes.
The costs associated would take your breath away… the clinic bears the cost that is passed on in many cases to the taxpayer.
2- 30 pound boxes were shipped to a Las Vegas casino for a travel order via courier, patient decided not to show up so it was refused. $1,800 each way for 2 boxes of sugar water.
The nurses caseloads are ridiculous, and the communication or lack thereof is unacceptable.
And people wonder why healthcare costs so much.

The end had been cut off on three sides. The contents missing. USPS would not process the claim when it was clearly employee theft.
