Tuesday, April 1, 2025: April Fools Day

Sounds like you are having a good time!

I admit that I always thought Tina was the star and Ike just used (and abused her). Somewhat interesting to hear that he had talent too, but boy Tina was Simply the Best!

Cold front came through this afternoon and it's in the 40s now. Brr.

Ugh. I went to all the way to Costco to pick up my prescription and they couldn't get my savings card to work. I didn't want to pay $1400 for my prescription, so I left. They've had similar issues before, but this girl was really unhelpful. Basically, I was getting the eyerolling "this woman (me) is stupid and not listening to me" attitude. But what she was saying made no sense. That I needed a prior authorization from my doctor even though my insurance does not cover Zepbound at all? I was really bummed when I left. I called Eli Lilly when I got home and the woman there was very helpful. I was worried I had maxxed out my benefits or uses of the card for the year. She said, no that would be a different error code. She said they were not running my insurance correctly first as the primary, then letting the secondary (the card)coverage kick in. Oh well, I can't do that drive again this month. So I transferred my prescription to Walgreens (which is often it's own ministry of chaos), so we'll see if they are any nicer or effective. Blech.

Doing laundry now... That's all I've got! Take care all

What a pain having to deal with that Costco nonsense. Good to know that Eli Lilly was helpful. I will probably buy vials from them once I use up my existing supply. Since I am on Medicare my insurance shouldn't be run at all.

From the 80's to the 40's is one drastic change! And I complain about a 15 degree change...

Greetings all

It is sunny now but boy was it raining earlier. Started the day with Scrabble where I played terribly and lost all my games. Boo Hoo. These people are getting too good for me. After that I stopped at the store for liver sausage since it is dog pill day and that is the only way to get them down. Bought a few other things but nothing too terrible. Then it was on to the studio for art time. One Scrabble friend came by to use our balance scale since he has some old pennies that might be valuable which have a weight difference. No jackpot found.

So DD on to Graceland. What fun. I hear it is marvelously tacky. Should be fun.

Liz glad you have a gold buddy who is fun. No fun to take it too seriously.

Well Peps I will have to see what they mean by visceral fat. Regardless of the scan numbers, you are doing great and should be proud.

Ditto Paula. So slim you mom did not recognize you! My mom once asked me if my husband and I were planning on having children. I had to remind her I was 64 years old!

And speaking of kids, little miss Vivian is doing fine. She lost a few ounces as newborns often do but it working on putting it back. They have a lactation consultant and all kinds of services at this high risk baby hospital so she is getting all that is needed. The kid has such long fingers - she will either be a piano player or a surgeon.

Not much else in this long day by my standards. More pot roast tonight. Yay for that. No April fools jokes here.

I thought of telling you all I was pregnant for an April Fool?s joke but know that I have have mentioned menopause too many times for it to be believed!
