The day after

I got up late, felt a little down. Had breakfast and coffee, and a slice of the pumpkin pie, which was even better after a day in the fridge.

I puttered online, including ordering a Hess Truck for Middle Brother for Christmas, which he said he wanted when we discussed them with the Kid and Oldest Brother at the hospital. Those things are not cheap. But if he really wants it...

I also put two buckets of water in the turtle tank.

Anyway, eventually I got up, showered, dressed, and Ubered over to the hospital. Oldest Brother was about the same as yesterday though maybe a little more aware. Maybe. I stayed for an hour, and left when they took him for a CT scan.

Came home and ordered another present for Middle Brother, a book of Cape Cod pictures. Why he wants a book on Cape Cod I do not know but he specifically asked.

Then I started reading a Starsky and Hutch story, but it was almost time to go to my Al-anon meeting, so I Left a little late for the bus. The next bus was late, and I waited a long time. The up side to that is that after I had my pizza it was late enough that people were already there and I didn't have to wait outside in the cold.

The meeting was good. I didn't get a ride to the bus stop, but it was later than usual so I didn't have to wait in the cold too long.

Came home and Skyped the FWiB. We had a nice time, and then it was pet feeding time and I fed the pets.

There had been some discussioon of going Black Friday shopping this morning but obviously that didn't happen. Oh well, maybe next year.
