I spent some time yesterday figuring out things about Medicare. I called Medicare and asked some questions, then declined the agent's offer to sign me up for a Medicare drug plan on the spot. I first need to decide whether I want Medicare Advantage, and then pick either one of those plans, or a drug-only part D plan.

I didn't pursue any of that today. Instead, I went with Cattitude and Adrian to have a picnic lunch, at a park near the Charles River, taking advantage of good weather. My hip was bothering me a little, so after we had lunch I went home via the nearest bus stop, and Adrian kindly went to JP Licks and bought a pint of caramel apple ice cream.

The dentist's office called me this afternoon, to say that I can't get my teeth cleaned on the same visit as my follow-up with the dental surgeon. I asked whether the plan for this visit involved anesthesia, because if it did, I'd want to reschedule; it doesn't, so I will be going to Watertown Square next week, to the same office I was seeing my dentist at until July.

Tomorrow I plan to stay home and rest. It might be a good day to make some phone calls, including asking my doctor's office what Medicare Advantage plans they accept.
