That Leroy gets it done

Hello,

 

Leroy had seen his general medical doctor who wanted some blood work. He gets blood work done every month because of his disease, but this was for some other things. He could have had it all on the same day, but decided to go ahead this morning. He got to the lab as it opened which was 7:00 am because he could not eat ahead of time. Leroy likes to have breakfast so the earlier the better.

 

I had my breakfast, washed and hung out two loads of clothes before he was done with breakfast. It was not long after that that we walked to our appointment with a spiritual director who would help us navigate the end of life health care directives. Leroy did find our former copy which we had done in 2002. It was quite succinct and did not include as much as we wanted. We still have not filled this out, but will get that done by August. This person suggested that we put an end date on it so we do get it done.

 

I was going to the grocery store. Leroy has worn a hole in his garden jeans. We went to two thrift stores and finally found a pair that fits him. Men’s jeans must be worn out rather than given away as they were not in such big supply. We also stopped at a store looking for a particular type of bug repellent for plants. One of Leroy’s library plants has aphids on it. We did not find the bug spray.  On our way to the grocery store Leroy’s phone rang. I answered on the car system. The jewelry store had called to say the insurance appraisal for my engagement ring was ready. Great, we were just a short distance away. We dashed in, picked up the ring and the papers before heading to the grocery store, got groceries, and filed the papers with the insurance agent. Such a full morning, but Leroy commented we got a lot done. So he was happy.
