Medical day
Aug. 12th, 2025 10:39 pmGot up at 11:00 after not sleeping well. Showered and washed my hair, and dressed, but no breakfast or coffee cause I had to have fasting blood tests.
After looking at my financial situation I decided to bus to the lab for my blood tests instead of Ubering. I left plenty of time, and in fact got there a half hour early. They took me immediately so I was out long before I had to be at my next appointment, the eye surgeon.
I walked to Dunkin Donuts and got their $5 meal deal, which is tasty, filling, and cheap. Now it's two wake up wraps and a coffee, the last time I did it, it was a breakfast sandwich and hash browns and a coffee, so I think it's a bit downsized, but what the hay.
Anyway, I ate and had my coffee, and then took the 13 bus to the eye surgeon. Again, I got there over a half hour early, and they took me immediately. So I was finished before I was supposed to have been there!
The eye is healed, it's doing fine. They want me back in two months, so I made an appointment for October 27th.
Then I took the 12 bus back as close to home as it goes, which is Parsons Blvd, right near Oldest Brother's nursing home. Which was depressing, I was rather hoping to never have to walk back from there again since he died. But I did it.
Came home, and spent the rest of the day puttering around.
The Kid called me, and we talked, she had some good news.
I called
mashfanficchick and we talked a bit.
At 8:00I had my Al-anon meeting by Zoom. That was pretty good.
Then I had dinner. At 9:44 I got email from the FWiB. His sisters have been visiting the last few days which is why we haven't been in touch as much. But he was home finally, and we Teamed.
And then I started here.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2. My eye is healed well.
3. The Kid's good news.
4. My meetings and the people there.
5. Nice weather.
6. My cat keeping me company.
