Always read labels...
Not only do I now have fungi-proof eyeglasses, but last week I missed Mass because instead of taking my blood-pressure medicine, I accidentally took one of my wife's Ambien. I slept for six hours. Looks like it's time for me to get one of those pill dispensers they sell at the drugstore.
Next it'll be Velcro-tab running shoes, high-waisted Sans-a-Belt slacks and a pair of those giant wrap-around sunglasses.
Oy vey...
In college, after having my wisdom teeth removed, I accidentally took my mother's progesterone. Same bottles, same cupboard.
MAN was I dizzy!!!
(Haven't told that story here before have I? Don't think so . . . probably thinking of sharing it with someone on FB last month.)

ALWAYS read the labels.
You're lucky that you're able to make the post.
(especially nasty if you end up mixing meds that shouldn't be mixed.)

I just got my blood pressure prescription refilled at Target. I highly recommend doing this--they will put a different colored plastic ring around each person in the family's prescriptions, so you never grab the wrong bottle! :)

Dear Lord have mercy on me a sinner. My hubby just bought himself some velcro tennies. They make me cringe but I haven't told him.
