Got home this morning after a few (tiring) days helping out my BFF. The trip cost $45, for gas and food. And BFF gave me some groceries others bought for her and that she is not going to use, so that was a bonus! She is doing well, but still needs a lot a help with household tasks; her mobility is still pretty limited.

Once home, I phoned in for a board conference call. That led to some online tasks. I also had to do laundry, unload the dishwasher, clean the litter pan, unpack, and now, at the end of the day, I'm feeling pretty tired. It's probably mostly the drive catching up with me.

Just to follow up on earlier posts -- I never did get that flu shot. My insurance wouldn't cover it. I think it MAY be covered if I get it at my doctor's office, so I'm going to get it there. Or, I might investigate whether a retiree is entitled to a free flu shot at the College. Employees are.

I'm not any closer to a decision on when and how to travel to Florida. I think I really just need a good night's sleep in my own bed!
