That's always a nice sentimental thing to have, glad you enjoyed it
and the weather played fair.

Meds only come in blister packs here if you request it. I take two
meds, one a.m. and one p.m. for my vestibular migraines and I simply
put enough out for the week in a little weekly container - against the possibility I might forget otherwise :)

I know Davids arthritis was so bad I asked them not to put his meds in 'childproof' bottles as there were no kids in our home!
Kat don't forget you can always mark a post SNUK - then I can read it

I take two meds for cholesterol and triglycerides: a statin and
fenofibrate. The statin only comes in blister packs. The dose of
fenofibrate are capsules that are distributed in both bottles and
blister packs, but my pharmacy has only stocked the bottles lately.
When refilling, I ask if I could get one box of blister packs if
they have them in as I find them easier when traveling, they
haven't had the blister packs for quite some time.
... and every single one is in a blister pack. They
are convenient if fiddly at times.

I find them convenient to put in my toiletries bag for travel, but I
would much prefer a bottle in the drawer of the bathroom at home.
The odd thing about the statin I take that only comes in a blister
pack is that I can frequently push one out of the blister pack and
it will land on the counter upright, like a wheel. Fortunately, it
rarely starts rolling away, but it seems to be the sort of thing that
I could never get it to do if I was trying, but since I'm not, it
happens almost half of the time.

I would love to see it, never happens to me! And if it did I bet it
would roll away.

That's my fear each time I squeeze one out! Strangely, they usually
just land standing up with no rolling.
This is the sort of thing that every so often it might happen three
times in a row, but if someone offered me money to do it three times
in a row, it would NEVER happen.
