I sometimes prescribe Maxitrol ointment for patients. Drops have a standard 20 drops per mL conversion to figure out how many doses are in a bottle, but I was't sure about the ointment, so I bought some ointment of a similar size, 3.0gm vs the Maxitrol 3.5gm, and saw how many applications I got out of it, which was 34, which means the 3.5gm tube would be around 40. So if you use it in both eyes four times a day, that's five days, not very long. I never realized the tube was so small. And the amount of ointment people put on vary much more than drops, so some people may get even less. So I guess if patients need to use it longer, I need to prescribe more.

Many crock pots.
More food.
Desserts.
Pretty sunset.
The Pitt addressing the issue of disinformation from the internet.
She wants a natural birth...
... just like women have had for thousands of years...
... except that she's forgetting...
... many people died from poorer medical care during most of those.

Ogii wanted soup for dinner, so I went to Food Truck Friday.
The roasted cheese place had French Onion soup, so I went there.
Unfortunately, the were out of soup.
But I still ordered some other food froom there.
Then I wandered around looking for soup.
The Egyptian truck had black-eyed pea stew; that should be close enough.
And also a hibiscus mint mamaki drink, which sounds good.
And some dessert.
Dinner.
They replaced these floorboards after the heavy rains. They don't match the old ones, but the owners said that was OK.
A praying mantis on the sliding door screen of our bedroom.
I hope it eats many bugs.
A bunch of termite wings on the kitchen counter. We need more animals that eat termites.
A bit of rain.
At the laundromat to wash our large comforter. Many of the machines are gone.
It looks like they're being replaced. I wonder how difficult it is to get the new ones shipped here.
They also have new change machines coming.
These still work, although one only takes $20 bills for some reason.
The soap dispenser is not working, however, so you have to get that from the attendant, who is often running around doing laundry that people had dropped off.
If they put up a sign saying not to do it, that means someone did it.
Someone charging their phone. I hope nobody steals it.
Someone left a Werther's Original in a dryer. I'm glad I saw that, just in case it would melt and ruin our comforter.
Old film canisters are perfect for holding quarters.
Posters for events.
The Reggae Fest sounds fun.
As does the art workshop.
Throw da shaka.
People leave their shopping cars on the walkway at Target.
You can't even get through here.
And the cart return is at the next aisle.
I wanted some new salt and pepper, but they were out. In fact, they're out of around half of their spices.
A big box for a convertible.
We drove by this open house and decided to stop.
Nice view.
And space in front to maybe build a second small house to rent.

Back to our place to clean our balcony.
A little vacuuming.

Rainbow.
Reggae Fest.
There were multiple bands.
It was busy.
They have a fun logo.
Many beers.
Dinner.
We sat at the tables with the other old people to eat while the young people hung out at the bar and talked.
Chicken art.
Another band.
Us.
The music and vibes were good.
