I spent all morning on the phone getting my prescription coverage taken care of. My former company couldn't give me new coverage in Maryland. Some regulation didn't allow them to do so. I had to search the medicare website to find another company. The least expensive was AARP so I went to their website and then called them. I was on the phone with them for what seemed like hours answering the same questions over and over. The premium is about 60 cents less a month but my prescription is about $100.00 less. I was exhausted after all that.

I took the things out of all my cabinets so I could foam the backs. I put on my old clothes and rubber gloves. What a mess that stuff is. It seems to get on everything except where you want it to go. I guess I didn't shake it well enough. All the air came out at once and then the foam dripped out even when I wasn't squeezing the trigger. It dripped on the bottoms of the cabinets, the floor, the fronts of the cabinets, the bathroom rug, and me. I was fortunate to get it off the Purgo floor. I didn't even realize it had dripped there. I scraped it with my fingernails and then scrubbed it off with steel wool. I will get some quarter round moldings to finish the job.

I trimmed Danny's face this morning before I called the insurance companies. He doesn't like being trimmed. I bribe him with some bits of chicken. His downy undercoat is growing in for winter and it grows quickly. It is soft and silky and very fine. It tangles easily. I can see why they clip poodles down to the skin. I like to let Danny's fur grow long for the winter because we go out walking in all sort of weather. He doesn't like rain though. We don't go far when it's raining but we have to go out several times because he doesn't get his business done.
