TOTALY FRUSTRATING TUESDAY !!!!

Today:
Today I went to a doctor to get my prescriptions refilled. That's the only reason I went, because I couldn't get an appointment with my regular doctor, and I was out of a couple. Why is it when you see a different doctor, for refills for meds, the first thing they want to do is change all your meds? It's not like you're going to go back to them again. Man you sure do have to jump through hoops when you see another doctor at a military hospital. He gave me most of my scripts, but the medicine I take for pain, he only gave me 30 tablets. Now I told him, I take two (2) tablets a day. So the way I figure, that gives me exactly 15 days worth of pain medicine. Now I have to try to get an appointment with my regular doctor, and have him write me a prescription with refills on it. He usually gives me 3 months worth at a time with 3 refills. So now I have to make another appointment, use more gas to go back to Wright Patterson Air Force Base Medical Center, and wait for the medication in the base pharmacy for another 45 minutes. Boy am I frustrated with this doctor, and you can bet I won't forget this guy's name, and tell them I don't want to see him if they ever try to give me another appointment with him! Okay, now I'll get down off my soap box before I fall! LOL! I really do hate dealing with some of these military doctors, but I am grateful to be able to go to the base for everything medical, and have all costs covered, by Mike's 20 years in the Military, and our tri care plus insurance. When I had my knee replacement surgery, for instance, it only cost me $18.00, and that was for food for food! That was the whole bill! So I really can't complain too much about a bad doctor once in a while, but it sure is frustrating when you're going through it! So enough said about that.

Microwave:
We're looking to replace "our over the stove" microwave, the one that got fried in the power surge. So far the prices are anywhere form $145.00 to over $250.00! That is buying one from, Lowes, or Home Depot. They are even more than that, at the RV stores, and in the catalogues. Some even have convection / microwaves, of course those are on the higher end of the price range! Right now, I think we'll just go with the cheapest one we can find. Then if our finances are better later on, we'll get a better one. So that's the plan for tomorrow, find a microwave that will go above the stove. Then the Prairie Schooner (our fiver) will be almost back as good as new! That will leave just the converter, and the Dirt Devil vacumn to be fixed. Oh then we need a surge protector for the Schooner too, and that is only about $600.00 for a 50 amp, which is what we have! Gee, our money just flies out of our account sometimes! That is why we do a little bit every payday so it doesn't seem to hurt so bad. Then we need to get some groceries too, and so it goes on, until next time...
