Gosh, it took me so long to get in touch with this online Pharmacy where I have ordered last month. I sent them the required prescriptions, Senior citizen’s IDs and the number of tablets/capsules which are good for one month. I sent it through Messenger but I tried contacting them this morning via phone. They have so many orders online since they placed their ads on FB. Good thing, the pharmacist I talked to was so accommodating.
It is quite hard to go to Mercury Drug nowadays to fill up a prescription because of the long line of buyers who are mostly senior citizens. I don’t want Josef to stand in line for so long under the heat of the sun so I opted to order online, never mind if they have delivery fees and you have to wait for at least two days for them to deliver it.
This is the “new normal” so to speak. Senior citizens are now allowed to go out for basic necessities but deep inside, one is afraid to get caught outside because of this pandemic. I tried going out at the nearby “talipapa” here the other day. Just bought chicken and a kilo of pork. Good thing yesterday, Josef and Jovy bought one week supply for us because they will be staying at Jovy’s grandmother’s place starting today until Monday morning because they are on leave from work. Haha, Oreo is excited, he is missing going around with them when they go out. He has his vaccines yesterday. They found a vet near our place.
Sometimes one gets bored just staying inside the house and puttering around the garden. I am grateful I have my books with me to pass the time away. One doesn’t get bored reading. Right now, I am in the middle of reading The Key To Rebecca by Ken Follett. If you love The Eye of the Needle and The Pillars of the Earth and the two succeeding books, you’ll love this too. What’s not to love about anything historical? I am looking forward to another book of his entitled Jackdaws.
And here is my observation for the day:
For them, there is a more serious and pressing matter – changing the name of NAIA (Ninoy Aquino International Airport). What a misplaced priority 😦
