ABOUT HOME, October 1-6, 2021

Friday or last week, the pharmacy shorted me on my medication, giving me 30 tabs instead of 60 as it said. They told me to bring in the bottle, then said they had nobody with access, or something like that, so not to bother. The medical provider staff on duty refused to allow me to see a doctor, so I couldn't get medicine for my exhaustion. I stayed mostly in bed all weekend, then got some more of my medications on Monday. I'd run out of this supply in 26 days, so I needed more, and the pharmacy said that they were out of stock.

Too tired to go hiking, I rested a lot in bed, going out just for nearby food. I made plenty of bacon and eggs, since I had stocked up. I kept apprised of the news, which said that I may not have my income by the government unless Congress voted to increase the debt ceiling.

Tuesday, I finally got a reply from the online psychiatric medical provider staff, and they'd now deal with the form as far as the DMV issue with my drivers license. They requested third party confirmation of my mental state, so I gave them the phone numbers of close family. Also for the provider that I'm due to see today. I have no friends, so by them, that might be a problem.

Too tired to even think, no one will help me for things at home, not even for $100/hour. I need some light painting done, rooftop work, and window coverings for my skylight. On a tight budget, I might do all this myself, but exhausted, I need energy.

UPDATE:

In the late afternoon, I got a call back from the psychiatric provider's office staff, saying that they could not confirm my mental status from any third party including family and now a friend, therefore I would get my fee for $150 to fill out the DMV form refunded. Forwarding their messages to the DMV and also requesting an extension for retaining my license, they are understaffed, couldn't care less, or what. The provider's staff said that they'd try the doctor provider again with my latest phone numbers with friend, but this looks doubtful. One family member claims that they never called. Trying for a referral to another local, past doctor who had once signed the form and helped me out in the past, this'll take some 1-3 months, by the Nevada Hope office.

From the looks of it, starting tomorrow, I will not be able to drive my $$$$$$ car. Therefore, all my carpool and road trip offers will have to be withdrawn. While in 2001, when I sold my 60 mpg, my plans were to go carless, then I could walk to about 100 restaurants from my home. 9/11 happened, and they urged help for the economy, so I then purchased my 100% Made in the USA Saturn. As I offered a free meal and free ride if anyone were willing to carpool and peak bag, only three ever took me up on that. None of them ever came back or ever messaged me, again. As I didn't wish to have my then $13,000 car go to waste, I began to do more road trips, SOLO.

Very much liking seeing the USA, supporting such wild and scenic travel businesses, and hiking and climbing in the National Parks and Forests, and all, I bought my zero emissions last year, but for neighbors, and chance PCT thru-hikers, nobody has ever carpooled in my zero emissions, or even inquired. I offered free rides, meals, and lodging, even $15/hour salary, but nobody.

With the money for selling my 3 at hopefully a fair market price, I will be unable to peak bag as I have been, as mass transit refuses trailheads, and taxi or Uber/Lyft is just too expensive. With nobody ever visiting by my software reports, this website will be terminated. No further offers for carpools or travel will then ever be considered or made, as they all have been clearly refused. If I get returned to energy, I have my daily exercise ops, with never support for any hiking group, further, as I won't have affordable transportation to meeting places or for carpools.

Nobody can answer if I will or won't need a license if FSD should come, and I would then buy my CyberTruck, if allowable. The news is that we are getting close to this, and even if the car does all of the driving, it may still be required to have a drivers license. Though with the complete lack of ever interest in any zero emissions carpools and sharing of expenses, even all paid for or for a million dollars by an old peak buddy, now deceased, I doubt that I'll ever have or ever allow riders in my new, hopefully forthcoming, tri-motor, 500 mile range, FSD, electric truck.
