March 14, 2017

Bob: Sorry we didn't get anything written last night. When we finally got to the motel it was almost 10 and we just wanted to get to bed as we were getting up at 7. We wanted to get up early in case the snow storm had an effect on Bonnie's flight and my drive to Charleston.
Yesterday we checked out of the New Martinsville Microtel and they said we didn't owe anything. I had used some reward points to get a reduced rate, but thought I owed about $250. Tammy, a member of the Church, said she billed everything to Wyndham Rewards as per the statement. She said if it isn't correct she'll hear back in about a week. So we'll see how it works out.
During the day we talked to Verizon about a phone, but ended up going to AT&T and putting another phone on Scott & Lori's Family plan. Spent some time at the New Mart. library and then went to visit Alexis Haught and family. Didn't have a lot of time to see them as Alexis had therapy until after 4 and we had the retirees' dinner at Quinet's at 6. Hardly anyone showed up for the dinner however. Gary Church was upset about that as several people had said they were coming. In fact, based on the number he told Quinet's they brought an extra worker in to work our group.
After we left the dinner we stopped at Kroger's in Moundsville to see Gary's wife. Didn't get to say much to her though as her checkout line just never slowed down. After we left Kroger's we had to drive to the Highlands on I-70.
We only got snow flurries today. Got to the airport without any problems. Had about a 2 hour wait for Bonnie's plane to takeoff and then they had a 22 minute delay taking off. She got to Orlando before I got to Charleston. I went to Wendy's for dinner. Will probably have a few meals there this week.
My room at the Red Roof Inn seems okay although it is an older motel.
We have been having trouble getting our medicare reinstated, but yesterday we were told it was reinstated effective March. Then today United Healthcare checked our medicare records and they hadn't been updated. The records still didn't show we had Part B medicare. Finally someone was able to get through the records and find the correct information. Now our supplement will start April 1. We just have to stay well until then.
Got some bad news from Canada today. Sister Donna Craig has passed away. Bonnie and I probably spent more time with her than any other member of the Temiskaming Branch. She was in a nursing home and on 2 liters of oxygen all the time, but no other major problems we were aware of. The sister that posted her death didn't say anything about what happened.
Well it's time to get to bed. Hope you have had a great day. Love to all and good night brothers.
Dad/Bob
