Catch up post
Feb. 25th, 2024 07:05 pmSo here's the catch up post I promised last night.
On Friday we didn't do much at all during the day, some shopping is all. Nice though. Then in the evening I took John and Denise out to dinner in a Thai restaurant. It was a somewhat limited menu, but quite good.
Then we went to an ice cream parlor and had ice cream for dessert, which was delicious. I had Baily's flavored.
Then we came back, and tried to fix the computer that had stopped working earlier in the day, which is why I didn't use it to post something then. They called the Apple IT number, and they were on for an hour and a half and nothing worked. They are taking it in to Jacksonville to the Apple store today.
While they were doing that, waiting for a callback, John Ivon called, and we had a conversation with him about Oldest Brother. It was nice hearing from him.
Saturday we got up late, and Denise made pancakes. That was delicious. Then we started early to take me to the airport. We stopped at the Daytona F;ea Market on the way and window shopped for about an hour. Lot of disgusting Trump-worshiping stuff, and other right wong merch, but some interesting things too.
Then they took me to the airport, we got there later than I wanted, and I discovered to my dismay that I couldn't print a boarding pass. I had to have it done, for a $25 service fee. Oy!
So I did that, and then went to security, which was longer than I expected, and made me go through twice, and put my bin through twice because they counted my Nook as a "large electronic"! The result was I nearly was late for boarding. Made it just in time to get on the line that was already boarding.
The flight iteself was unremarkable. Very smooth. I deplaned and found![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
mashfanficchick and zer mother and we went to dinner at Uno.
Then they brought me back here and everything was OK< and I pposted my one line post, and went to bed.
I'll post tonight about today and do a gratitude List for the day then.

And my post for today
Feb. 25th, 2024 10:23 pmSo today I got up, and not having any milk, tossed on some clothes and went to Dunkin' Donuts for breakfast. I had a sausage, egg, and cheese on a croissant, hazelnut coffee, and a donut. Yum!
Came home, ate, and then took a shower and washed my hair.mashfanficchick and zer mother picked me up, and we went to the hospital (with a stop at 7-11 first).
When I got to Oldest Brother's room, Brianne was there! So that's nice, he got two visitors today and I got to see her for a bit. He was awake and semi aware, not talking but sort of reacting. I got to talk to two of his doctors, and came away with not much more than I already knew, but at least he is moving in the right direction.
After I saw the second doctor I said good-bye and left. Then we went to the drugstore for my prescription, and then to Qdoba for lunch. I had nachos, very good.
Finally we went to Target to exchange something that ze had bought that was still under warranty. They brought me home after that, there had been a possibility we were having dinner with Elissa, but that was decided against, and we are going to do that next Sunday.
When I got home I put in a Shipt order, and puttered online. The Kid called, and we talked, and she convinced me to go clean my bathroom sink, so I did that. It looks very nice now. Then I bagged all the plastic recyclables, I'll take them out tomorrow I guess.
Finally it was time for the FWiB to Skype, so we did. My Shipt order arrived while we were talking and I put the perishables away. Then at 8:30 it was time to call Middle Brother so I did that.
He is fine, and looking forward to his birthday. He reminded me his CD player is broken, and I don't know if the group home is going to get him a new one or if I need to do that for his birthday. Have to call them and find out. Just in case after the FWiB and I were done, I looked up CD players on Amazon. Looks like I can get one for about $55.
Anyway, I fed the pets, and now I'll go to bed and read a bit I think.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2. Brianne visited.
3. Oldest Brother is on the mend.
4. Clean sink.
5. Good books.
6. My vacation.
