The medication is supposed to be stable for a year in an unopened vial. Once opened, it is good for a month. Some pharmacies label it in confusing ways but that is what I have found googling it and reading FB groups - my vials say 1 year. I heard that the patent for semaglutide runs out in 2027, so at least there is some hope for the future. The patent is much further out for tirzepatide unfortunately.

So are you done when you leave for KY next time? Good luck getting it all accomplished. Brings back recent memories...

The month we were in Arizona the dryness of the air made me constantly thirsty and my skin needed lotion multiple times a day. I even needed a saline nasal spray because of it.
I hate really large cars - you can't see past them and like this one they take up way too much space. How rude that they didn't even check to see if they were too close on your side.

152.1. First weigh in it was 152.6, but after some good bathroom time, it dropped (even with breakfast on board). We'll see tomorrow what number holds more true.
Chiily day here, but not at chilly as CC, eeeegads! 29 degrees in AZ! A CD of mine matured. It was meant to go toward a FL property, but now that we are staying put in WI, I just put in back into another 10 month CD. Will come in handy for a tummy tuck come Fall!
DS3 will be home soon. Made him his favorite meatballs with mushroom gravy over rice for dinner ! I like treating them with their favorites when they visit!
No plans for the weekend. DH is back to work tonight, working 12 hour night shifts through Monday.

How interesting that they've offered to let you buy a year's worth of tirz in advance. Does it last that long? I know the semaglutide seems to have a fairly short shelf life. I met with my PA at Henry Meds recently and they didn't say anything about that possibility. Of course, I'm on sema (but I think that is also coming off the shortage list?)...and who knows, it may be illegal to send that mu*****A. We can't even get tirz thru Henry Meds here. I did ask him about oral semaglutide for maintenance, and he thought it would be quite effective, but that's not available in CA either at this point...
UPDATE: I called Henry Meds, and they said semaglutide has not yet officially been taken off the shortage list but that when it does, they will likely offer the same deal of a bulk purchase for existing customers..

Getting stuff done this morning: replacing a torn screen door, getting moving bids, mulching leaves, getting bids for furniture neither I nor family members want, waiting for family members to pick up furniture I'm gifting to them, jacked up my county commissioner about grading my road after the big rains (he actually called me back on a Saturday morning!), and other things I can't think of right now. The checklist is getting shorter every day.
But today's one of those days I'm ready for all this to be over and to be back with my honey. I'll be here in MO all next week packing, cleaning, getting rid of stuff, then head to KY for Thanksgiving week. I can't wait! :)

How can a human being living in society possibly be so inconsiderate?! But what a nice woman that was who helped you engineer your way into the driver's seat.
Moments like these are when I love country roads that leave cars all dusty and muddy, so I can write some pretty predictable words on the driver's rear windows--written BACKWARDS so the driver can read my opinion about them clearly in the rear view mirror.
