Normally I would do my packing closer to when I leave but because there's the possibility of going to a day baseball game on Wednesday with
mashfanficchick and then D&D in the evening, and because I have my meeting tomorrow night, I decided to do my packing today.
So I got up around 11:00 and had breakfast and coffee, and read online, and then went and went through all my clothes and packed my suitcase. It took awhile, but I finally got it done, plus a garbage bag of junk filled up, and a pile of empty clothing boxes for recycling.
Then I bit the bullet and called Amtrak to find out if there was a problem with my reservation, because the second part of it, my return trip, vanished from my app. They say there is no issue and all is well. I printed out the receipt and paper ticket anyway.
I also went online to the post office and had my mail held for while I'm gone.
Then I finished reading the Agatha Christie I've been working on, The Pale Horse. I had figured out part of the solution but not all of it, and there was a nice twist at the end.
I called
mashfanficchick to see if ze knew yet about Wednesday, but ze didn't. i played solitaire on my phone, and at 7:00 I Teamed the FWiB. We talked for over an hour and a half, so that was nice.
Then I had dinner, and went to the bedroom to play more solitaire until pet feeding time. I texted the Kid, because I thought I remembered she had a job interview today, which she did, and thinks she did well.
Then I fed the pets and started here.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2. My packing is done, and there is still a little room in my suitcase.
3. The Kid's job interview.
4. Cleaned some of the mess in my bedroom.
5. RK, I texted him about caring for my pets today.
6. My train reservation is OK.
