I leave for my doctors appointment at the Arizona Arthritis and Rheumatology Associates in Mesa at 6:40. My appointment is at 7:15. Now that I am on Medicare there is no co-pay here. It used to be $60.00. Out of the blue Doctor Caldron asks me how Show Low got it's name, so I tell him. He examines me, and orders bloodwork and a flu shot. They forgot to give me my flu shot. He also write me a prescription for Enbrel and I tell him I want to try just the Enbrel without Methotrexate for awhile. He agrees, at least until my next visit in January.
Stacy has not been watering the front lawn because the water pressure is so low. I go by and pick up a new sprinkler to see if that helps, but it doesn't. James is going to call Brent to fix the front faucet. Our control valves are under the berm in the orchard when now belongs to someone else. We may have to dig that berm up.
For lunch James and I went to Arizona's Handcrafter Bakery on Alma School and Ray to get some hand pies. I was disappointed. We took an apple one to Sheri.
I went shopping at Sam's Club for our dinner with Harold, Vickie, Dennis, and Denise that we are doing on Sunday. I got some of their delicious fillet mignon steak.
On the way home we have to go by Scottsdale National Golf Course to check on the cartpath color. It takes us an extra hour as we work our way through Fountain Hill. I am grumpy and tired, so we stop at Taco Bell in Fountain Hills, and McDonald's in Payson.
When we get to Show Low we stop at Safeway's so I can finish doing my dinner shopping for tomorrow night. While I am in the store James sees Heather Horner and her son Ocean. She always did want to be a marine biologist.
When I try to get back on the highway there is an old car parade going on and it is impossible to make a left turn so I turn right and take the back roads. Funny! As we try and come back on the highway on the other side of town the parade is going by again! Some days you just can't win.
After unloading the car and putting things away we settle down to watch an episode of The Walton's before going to bed.
