I'm glad I enjoyed the last two days.... It's like a totally different day ... It's 45 and windyI was actually sitting on the back Patio enjoying the Mid 50's temps here~! Had to sit in the sun and wear a jacket because the cool breeze.
Good afternoon Porch goers
My wife was at Walmart Monday checking out a new juicer for me, $59,99. I went today to get it and today it's $84.99. Then went to get fresh veggies to juice and a few other items and everything has gone up by that much. WTF is the war here or Ukraine? Might wanna stock up before it happens where you are. I had heard this was comin. ALL GREED>

I have found many stores especially Walgreens charge less if you order online and pick it up. I once went to the store to buy Tiger Balm and it was $9 and change. They would not honor the online price. So I went home ordered online and got them 2 for the $9~! Only now they had to do Twice the work by picking, bagging, emailing and giving them to me when I went to pick up. So now I do it every time.
Walgreens are on my shit list. I've been a customer of theirs for decades, but all of a sudden, now that I'm on Medicare, they decide when to refill my prescriptions, and once scrips are ready, they worry the absolute hell out of me until I come to pick them up. Texts, calls, emails, ad nauseam, until I am ready to fling my phone across the room!
If my Medicare prescription drug coverage didn't mandate Walgreens, I'd go somewhere else.
I run a medical practice and I just started about 5 months ago. I started reaching out to random patients to get an idea of how we are doing with patient satisfaction. One of the things I quickly discovered was that "we" were sending them too many emails, texts, auto calls, and letters...I questioned the staff regarding it and they were dumbfounded, as "we" weren't sending most of them. When I dug deeper I found out that the previous person, or one of the previous administrators, had signed up for a company to send them out for us, but didn't properly communicate it to our team. Also, she had them sending way too many to begin with. I immediately stopped it and calculated how many should be done and set it in place. Our patients are SO much happier now. My point is, many people complained to our receptionist about this, but the complaint never got to where it needed to until I reached out personally. Make sure you complain to the right person about it, it could change the whole thing.Walgreens are on my shit list.

count on me to join your armyLet the rich die in their war. The poor need war no more. --- Benjamin K. Badgley 03/04/2022
We poor outnumber the rich. What can they do to force us to fight in wars only they want? Buy thugs? We'd still outlast them, overtake them. Let us poor simply walk away and divorce ourselves from the rich. All they seem fit to do is want more.
Enough is enough.
I just Signed Mom up for the United Health - AARP Rx Plan. I was actually totally surprised first visit because all the info was in the Computer and I was the one calling them to see if they were ready~! Go into your account and change the Notifications. CVS used to do that shit to my Dad. Call say shit was ready and get there to find out it wasn't~!
Thank you, I will never go in a Walgreens again, they pissed me off for the last time long ago.Walgreens are on my shit list.

Yes you are treated differently when you come to Medicare age, why, they have to give the government a special pricing schedule and they don't profit as much.
Sadly same with some Doctors and other services.
Brother, my army doesn't exist. We're just plain folks not wanting any more war. There's no point for war any more. Resources are not genuinely scarce. They were made artificially scarce. Look up and read on the myth of scarcity.count on me to join your army
Being Awesome!
Too early in the Morning for Metal........................
Ah well, here you go then, get us some Bebop going, ...
Too early for any Music at least in my world.
Well, last night I sat for over three hours alone in a school building. Could have listened to some music on my phone but didn't. I simply sat alone with myself.
Solitary confinement is seen as being cruel & unusual punishment. Was I confined? Well I had to be there for a certain time as the job required.
Thing is I've grown used to being alone with myself. Yep, done sprung the spring, unwound the wind up, ... so intoxicated on insanity I've come back to being sane. So, every now and then music in the morning?
"Do do de oh oh!" Why not? It helps keep me on the rails. Music is pure magik.
Hey whatever floats your boat~! If I was up for a couple of hours sure I would play music if driving or working. Not before my coffee in the morning.
you will get there buddy.*goes "Huh."*
That may also explain why those with rare conditions are treated like dung. Currently looking for a new internal medicine doctor (endocrinologist). Found I have no more scrip for the testosterone I obviously need to have. Thinking my current doctor did cut me off out of perceiving me as some criminal. *smh* Really wish a ton of folks would go, "POP!"
morning my friend, i hope you have a kick ass day.Good morning!
the past few days have seemed quiet here on the porch.Thanks! Yard work most the day yesterday followed by the same today.

I’ve been saying Ukraine should cut the head off the snake and rocket the poop out of the Russians along the boarder cutting any possible support to those leading the attack (the head of the snake).
so are parts of russia.Without dressing a table here, Poland is nice this time of year.
Looks like Sunday gravy! Add a little vino and you're in paradise...
I lived off base for a while when I was in the USAF. One of my roommates was Italian and his Mom came up to visit. She was from the old country and made Sunday gravy for us. Man oh man, I was in heaven from her cooking.
