I did go to the pool first thing this morning, though before I opened my eyes, I tried talking myself out of it. I had a very bad headache. No worries, it was gone before I left the house for the pool. My oil light came on this weekend, so I went locating an oil place. I had called my son this weekend and he told me a great place to go that was cheap. It was. I found out they opened at 8. I had arrived straight from the gym. It wasn't yet 7:30 but the owner was there. I went home, had a bite to eat, worked a few minutes on my book, then headed back there to get the oil changed. They offer top off freebies between changes. I'll be taking advantage of that. Arriving home, I made an egg bake. I'm always changing up the recipe, and this one was very good. I put tomato, onion, and zucchini in it, blended in my Ninja with six eggs. I still have a little left, but not for long. I called the Social Security office to find out about Medicare as I turn 65 this year, to find out about them taking the payment from my small SS check. I found out they have a program where the state will pick up the premium. Good to know. Though I still need the supplement to cover what Medicare doesn't. Hopefully that won't be too much either. Now, I am out the door again as I need to get a very small amount of shopping done at Aldi. I need onions and bacon. I am out of bacon and I have one onion left. I also need bananas as I finished those off yesterday. I will return to continue the fascinating discussions I'm already seeing today, and get more work done on New Horizons. It's coming along very good. I should be at the place where I left off by the end of the day, and then I can continue moving forward to the end. Okay, I'm outta here. I will return. What are you doing today? Thanks for reading.

Yes, and more to come. I have a lady from church coming in under half an hour for me to teach her more of the Bible. I'm looking forward to today's lesson, and then it will be more writing after that.

@DianneN Really? You're taking the day off from all the crazy activity? I need to mark that on my calendar. Dianne takes day off from life. Enjoy your lazy day. Get some reading done and watch for that crazy bird, whom you haven't mentioned in quite a while. Have you seen Orville lately?

You will also need to buy the prescription coverage if you don't buy it when you are eligible there is a penalty. That is why I use a United Healthcare Advantage, for $26 a month I get prescription coverage as well as the supplemental and dental cleaning. Some advantage programs don't have any upcharge. You can check it all online.

@just4him I get my y membership free with silver sneakers!! It’s worth the $26 by itself!!

Thank you. That's a good deal for $26. I was worried it would be a lot more. I'm going to check out what my current coverage is that I have with Medicaid - Blue Cross Blue Shield. Though I know from commercials I've seen, United Healthcare offers Silver Sneakers, which is a good deal for me since I'm always at the gym.

@BelleStarr I'm hoping to get Silver Sneakers or Silver and Fit this year when I'll finally qualify. However, I don't know if I will with Medicaid. We'll see.

It's good to keep the piano tuned when you're using it all the time.

@just4him If you let the strings get too slack it becomes much harder to tune and they won't stay in tune so long.

I'm glad you didn't miss a day at the pool, but would understand if you did. Also glad the car place was cheap and helpful, and that you enjoyed your breakfast! We had bacon tonight for "dinner". But it kinda hurt because of having to keep it on one side and it was getting stuck where my wisdom tooth on the bottom right has poked through.

I'll most likely be missing the pool tomorrow. I hope not, but this flu has caught me in its net.

My guess is the paint store was more exciting than the dental appointment. It would be for me at least.
