It was a beautiful day today. Still is, I guess. It was 54°F this morning when I went for my walk. Loved, loved, loved it. Took some pics of the fog in the hills and my pals the cows, they're up at Flickr.
Later on I put up the drone to get some aerial shots of the house. We're making good progress, but we're going to have to kind of work around some scheduling conflicts. Ideally, we'd like to have the excavation filled before the concrete is poured; but we need to get the power and water lines run first, and that's dependent on the electrician's schedule. Supposedly he'll be here next week. But they also need to finish getting the waterproofing up on the exterior of the ICF, so that'll keep them busy for a day maybe.
Anyway, it's getting there.
I ordered a Leviton breaker panel. The panel is cheap, it's the breakers that are expensive. Part of that expense is because I'm buying a number of "smart" breakers that'll report power consumption; but also because the new National Electrical Code requires AFCI and GFCI features at the breaker, adding to the cost. And they pretty much have to go everywhere.
I believe in safety, but this seems like overkill. I hope there's data behind all these new codes, because this is another reason why people can't afford homes these days.
Still working on the doctor saying the magic words to the pharmacy on the GLP-1 prescription. I got a note that there was some new communication available in MyChart, so I logged in to see if my results from the sleep study were in, or there was some feedback on the GLP-1 thing.
It was the GLP-1. There was a "new" authorized medication in my chart. I called my pharmacy to see if they had the prescription, but I got the chatbot so I had to drive into Watkins to talk to the pharmacist. The prescription they have on file is from August 6th, and it likely wasn't written in accordance with the Bridge program requirements. The new medication does look like it meets the requirements, but the pharmacy doesn't have that prescription. Maybe it just hasn't made its way to their inbox yet.
We may go over to one of the wineries we haven't visited yet and look at the lake. We'll see.
The beat goes on...
