A carry method for us old folks. (packing your pills)
on: April 17, 2022, 03:13:02 AM
Last Tuesday I was voluntold to go on a road trip leaving Wednesday morning, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, returning on Friday.  I had to pack up my pills which I have in a seven day organizer.  I could just drop the pill organizer in my overnight bag, but the compartments pop open easily and I would end up with dozens of unsorted pills rolling around in the bottom of my bag which would be unacceptable.

I was thinking to put the whole thing in an envelope of some sort that would be tight enough to prevent the compartments from opening.  Looking around for options I found this Axius Car Visor organizer.  It used to hold the car's registration and a parking placard that I didn't want to leave hanging from the mirror all the time.  I stopped using this organizer years ago and I honestly can't explain why I hadn't thrown it away.  It turned out to be a good thing I kept it, however, because it is the perfect size to tuck in the seven day pill organizer in the large compartment.  It is tight enough that the compartments of the pill organizer couldn't possibly open yet I was able to close the zipper.  My pills were safe during my trip.

That's a great tip. And bonus points for your use of the word "voluntold." I heard that a lot during my military service.

Thats almost a mandatory term to be used in the postal  service before you make it to career.

I have the exact same pill organizer, except I think mine might be fuller. :dunno: 
I also have to have access to my duragesic patches every 72 hours.

Never thought to use a visior organizer though, I've always put the lot in a gallon Ziploc and folded it into my luggage.
