After about a week of intermittent, sometimes heavy rains (heavy enough at times to knock flowers off plants and our front yard cherry tree) this Wednesday dawned clear and chilly, with frost on the car windows. As the day progressed so did cloudiness and it was (Emily;s wird) "spitting" by the time I went to pick her up at 3 pm. Whilie still not too cloudy, looking up through the open sunroof my impression is that blue skies here are lighter in color than in Kansas. On to other things. I had a visit with a neurologist Tuesda, and from him learned that the Neuro patch, available in the States, is not, and may not for a long time be, available in New Zealand. So we will try a mix of Sinamet (I am alread taking) and Requip to see if that will get me moving better. Medications are quite inexpensive here, but I almost passed out when presented the bill for his consult - $340.00!! REMINDER - All dollar amonts in our posts are New Zealand dollars. Tanks for the qery about that. I reall haven't yet looked very hard for things to do outside the home - the two major audiology groups in town would basicall have me selling hearing aids and I like that ok even thogh I will have to learn some new software and fitting techniques, and I have grown lazy in my retirement. Time will tell. There is not a lot being done about auditory processing disorder testing or remediation, so maybe there will be an opportunity. I need to find something that will put me in contact with folks outside the family and have that as a goal for August - September. Well, thanks to all who read this, and may you be well. Manford
