Lewis Drug
Our Lewis Drug here in town can be overwhelmed, as it was yesterday, the 26th. They service the clinic, the hospital and the nursing home. Dennis patiently waited it out for my meds. He got home at four. When he came home with his tails: there had been four counting out pills, one full time at the drive through window with two with two tills going. He had found a chair and visited with others that had sought a chair and were waiting. Holidays bring challenges.
I slept well through the night.
This morning as I was having coffee in my bedroom porch perched on my cherry chair, it was like watching a rodeo through my windows. The same company that does our garbage out of Wilmar, got the bid for our recycling from the county. We had gotten the new bins delivered on the 24th throughout the town. The town was filled with yellow-topped bins, old labeled ones and new labeled ones. Today the old bins were emptied out, our usual recycling day, and then there were removed by trailers picking them up. Quite the activity.
This afternoon we are going out north of town for a celebration of Dennis’ cousin Sam turning 90. Sam’s mother was Dennis’ father’s sister. The only such relative left for Dennis. I am sure the shop on Sam’s son’s farm will be warm and tricked out. Dennis had been a usual visitor at Sam and Maria’s farm home.
We have been blessed with Christmas gifts from Carrie and Kevin. When Carrie’s had come in November, our freezer compartment was filled with prepared meat loaf pans to bake, frozen packets of steamed carrots for oven meals, frozen cookie pods to bake and prepared loaves of zucchini and pumpkin bread to thaw. Kevin’s have given us ample visits to Subway during 2026. Sweet treats indeed all around. Very much appreciated by the both of us.
With that I will take my leave. ♥
