All is well.

I got my taxi this morning, then the train, got a good seat, no problems. Ate lunch from the cafe car, a stromboli. Got to Penn Station after being held in the tunnel for a half hour, so I was late getting there, but [personal profile] mashfanficchick's mother was there to meet me.

We tried going to the Georgia Diner for dinner, but it was closed so we went to the Buccaneer instead. Tasty.

Then she brought me home and all is well. Oreo seems happy to see me.

Was only able to talk to Oldest Brother once today, there seems to be something wrong with his phone again. I will try to go there tomorrow and complain.

Called Middle Brother from the train, he is fine, went on a hike and to a museum and a restaurant yesterday, and to Sunken Meadow today for a walk.

Called the Kid. she's fine.

Bed now. More tomorrow.

I slept until 10 and Oreo was in and out of my bed all night, so I guess he wanted to be sure I was really there.

I got up, and since I had no milk, creamer, and some other things, I put in a Shipt order. Then while I was waiting for it I showered and dressed and took out some garbage and then went to Dunkin' Donuts for brunch. I brought it back and collected the mail from my mailbox, the delivery of the held mail while I was gone.

After the Shipt order came, I unpacked it and put everything away. Then I went and lay down and dozed for a couple of hours. Oreo lay down with me and as close to cuddled as he ever does.

Laurie texted about Oldest Brother, and we had some discussion.

Then I got up, and went to Oldest Brother's nursing home to see him. He looks... OK, I guess. He was happy to see me, and I brought him the Ben Aaronovitch graphic novel I bought for him. I stayed for a couple of hours, during which they came and replaced his defective phone.

While i was there, I discovered that my email was logged out and I couldn't log back in. When I got home, I tried to reset my password, and finally called the help number. I was on hold for almost an hour! And she couldn't do anything for me, because she couldn't validate the account because the only way she could was by making a phone call to the number associated with the account, and that number doesn't exist any more. She gave me another number to call, but they closed at 6 and it was by then past 7. So I have to wait till tomorrow. I am seriously pissed off, they apparently changed my password with no notice.

After that I Skyped the FWiB to get me out of my foul mood, and we had a good time. I'm still annoyed though.

I called oldest Brother and the phone works OK< so that's good.

Then I went and lay down again, I played solitaire and Oreo came and lay with me.

I got up for pet feeding time, and took care of the pets, then I started here.

And so my vacation ends, not with a bang but a whimper.

Gratitude List:

1. The FWiB.

2. Oldest Brother's phone is working again.

3. Dunkin' Donuts.

4. Shipt.

5. I have alternative email to keep in touch with the FWiB.

6. I had a nice long vacation.
