Week: July 16 to July 22

July 16 (Monday) Called client on my way, on the freeway to be exact and asked her if she wanted me to drop by to either Food For Less or 99 Cents to get her groceries as I remember I was about to leave home Saturday, July 14 and heard her talking about planning on getting groceries. And so she said "yes," and she was just thinking about it. Called her when I was on 99 Cents parking lot in University Ave. and told me to go to Food For Less instead. I got Roast Beef for lunch for sandwiches to make, small dessert, milk bones for dog, milk, 2 chicken pot pies, 2 cans dog food, Italian squash, and Greek salad. Spent $24.86 with my card.

Then called me, and I called her few times and she want potato chips. It was expensive in Food For Less about $3 a bag and the tv dinners wasn't on sale, can't find the tuna too, so I decided to just get it on 99 Cents since it was on the same spot/area. While I was about to walk inside the 9 Cents store got a call again to get soda, and I did. Spent $6.18 on 99 Cents Store. Got 2 tv dinners, the potato chip, and 2 cans of tuna.

July 17 ( Tuesday) Gave client coffee and said she felt lightheaded and thought it was  the medicines. So hadn't given her anything to take for that day. Had Popoyes chicken for lunch worth $1.99 and without biscuits as it was cheaper this time and small apple pie.

July 18 (Wednesday) Client called me morning and ask a favor for me to drop by to Walmart and get lawn fertilizer and fudge brownies, also either French rolls or Kaiser rolls. So I did. Got the fudge brownies and Kaiser rolls from the bakery when I got in the store then went to garden area and got Turf Builder lawn fertilizer 13. something lbs. that covers 5000 sq.feet. Doesn't have price displayed but thought it wasn't that expensive but turns out it was ($21). Anyway client didn't like it when when she saw it, said it was small bag. Called Home Depot and I talked to the woman too and was told they have 13lbs. for about $13 and some cents that covers 5000 sq. ft. Said "5000 sq. ft. is pretty big." Told it to client but still insist she wants 5 lbs. bag. Told her what I got is already 13 lbs. but still wants bigger bag! Made  roast beef sandwich for lunch, Italian squash and water for her. Spent $29.51 in Walmart. End up returning the lawn fertilizer at Walmart in Highland in National City and what client owes me now is $8.42.

Also gave her coffee when I got in the house and brought her the pink, small pill for bladder. I asked her first how was her sleep and she said "great" then gave her the pill and she took it. Hadn't given her the white, two other pills to see how she does without it as she's been saying a lot she doesn't think it does any good. And yesterday said she feels lightheaded and such. That maybe it was the pills so she doesn't wanna take it.
