It has been in the 90's for the past couple of days. Have not turned on the A/C because mother has been coughing and I do not want her to get sick. At night I open the windows and close them in the morning so the house stays cool. It helps that we have several shade trees and strong winds that do not seem to want to subside.
Got up early so I could go pick up some medication at HEB. Last week the doctor ordered an eye ointment but insurance would not pay for it, asked how much it would cost if she paid for it...$240.00 he said...called the eye doctor back and asked him if he could prescribe a more affordable medication. He did so Thursday and HEB never filled it. Today I went to see why and the pharmacist said she could have it ready in an hour and a half.
Not wanting to have to drive back to town went to have breakfast at Chik-Fil-A and took advantage of their free WI-FI.as I killed time. The first and only time I have been to this fast food chain was twenty years ago in Houston. I had no idea they had a children entertainment area like McDonald's. There were a lot of screaming kids, do not think I will be back unless I use the drive-thru window.
Gasoline prices have gone down some. Stripes was selling regular unleaded for $2.04 per gallon if you paid with their credit card or $2.07 if you paid with cash or another credit card.
Good night. May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
Spurs Corner
I am so sick and tired of national media disrespecting the Spurs. All I heard after the game Thursday night and all day Friday had to do with Harden. Not a single sports show or sports analyst gave the Spurs any credit for having won without two key players and on the road.
No one is giving us any chance in this series against the Golden State Warriors. I beg to differ and think we have a good chance. I may be accused of having Spurs rose colored glasses but I take the Spurs in 7.

Walmart Vision Center / IHOP
We had not had a chance to order new eyeglasses for mother after her cataract surgery. We did not fill the prescription in San Antonio to avoid a return trip to pick them up. Not to mention that they were way too expensive at that high price clinic even using her own frames.
In Del Rio, we do not have many options so we ordered them from Walmart Vision Center. The tech told us that being that she had had cataract surgery on both eyes Medicare would cover a portion but it would take a week for them to authorize the payment. Had I known that out of $149.00 they only approved $39.20 I would not have even bothered.
They called yesterday to let us know that they were ready but there is no way I was going to Walmart on a Saturday. We went early this morning only to find that they did not open until noon. Decided to go have breakfast at Chik-fil-A where we have never eaten before. Was surprised that they are closed on Sunday...how odd!
Went to IHOP instead where I really do not like to go as it is always packed. I have not been able to find my camera in days so took pictures with my phone but I am having a heck of a time downloading them to my old computer. I swear I should be banned from using any kind of electronic gadgets :-(
As we waited for the Vision Center to open decided to use their WI-FI to watch the soap opera I missed Friday only to get a message saying my "authentication failed". I just can't catch a break!
Good night. May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

I am very nervous in anticipation of tonight's Game 4. Perhaps all the coffee I had at IHOP might have a little to do with it too.
I am so disappointed that the Toronto Raptors got swept by the Cleveland Cavaliers. Was hoping they would split the series like they did last year. I was rooting for Cory Joseph a former Spurs.
