STILL SEEING DOCTORS

Our motor home is quiet except for the tapping sound of rain and keys on the computer. The weatherman is predicting snow tonight, but should not stick. Allan is sound asleep. We got up very early this morning for Allan's endoscopy at the hospital. I had mine last week. It doesn't take much to put him to sleep. The nurse had a hard time waking him up and getting him in the car. I should have gotten that on video. They give you medicine so you won't remember what went on, which is probably a good thing. Allan asked me at least 50 times what the doctor found. We both have had very good reports on all of our tests. I am still having the same stomach/gall bladder symptoms though and have made my diagnosis as to what is causing all of this. Food allergies.

Now I must make a decision on my Medicare. Do I choose regular Medicare with a supplement or do I go with an Advantage plan? And do I choose to go with Medicare Part D. This will require more investigation, but due to us being out of state most of the year, I am inclined to go with regular Medicare and no Part D.

Allan was in Red Bay for a week and I sure did miss him. I think he took pictures of some of the work being done so I will post those later with a report. He was very pleased with the service and speed of the work completed. Some other people were not pleased, but they did not have an appointment and we did.

Maybe I will get to make a snowman??? Until next time.

RED BAY

We are in Red Bay, Alabama waiting our turn. Purchased two Euro-chairs for the empty spot on our slide where Allan removed the couch. Will post more as we get work done.

WE ARE HOME IN ALABAMA

We stayed at the Kentucky Horse Park for a couple of days so that we could visit some of Allan's relatives. We both enjoy the Horse Park and try to go there every year. Then we drove to the hills of Kentucky to work with Campers on Mission at a Christian boarding school. It was so good to see old friends and make new friends, too.

While in Tennessee we visited the old town of Rugby. It is a very quiet town with beautiful scenery nearby.

Finally, arriving in Sweet Home Alabama we decided to stay at Desota State Park and visited several places of interest in the area.

Cloudland Canyon in Georgia was one of the places we visited. The leaves were beautiful there. While driving there we saw the results of tornado damage from last spring. Guntersville State Park in Alabama was hit bad particularly in the camping area.

Allan and I are so happy to be home. We spent a week with our daughter in Alabaster. While there we have met with several friends and had numerous doctor appointments. Our daughter said as we were leaving that she had hardly seen us. It hit me that we are trying to cram too much stuff in too short of time. We need to stay here 3 months rather than two. Unfortunately, it won't work out with our schedule this year, but next year will be different. We have now moved to our daughters in Odenville. Still seeing people and doctors. Allan will be making a trip to Red Bay next week. Katie and I will stay here in Odenville. Katie doesn't know it, but she has a vet appointment, too. She is really enjoying trying to catch the leaves that are falling and watching the neighborhood cats walking through the yard. Maggie, our daughter's dog, comes over to visit her, too.

Must get up early for more tests in the morning. Signing off.
